GHK-Cu
A copper peptide that falls with age and drives collagen and repair.
For
- Dogs only
Given as
- A small injection under the skin, or applied to the skin.
What it is
GHK-Cu is three amino acids carrying copper. It was discovered in young blood, its levels drop as we age, and it anchors decades of wound and collagen research, including injected pad wounds in dogs.
How it works
It switches on the genes for collagen, elastin and tissue remodeling, and supports the body's own antioxidant defenses.
What vets prescribe it for.
- Slow healing wounds and surgical incisions
- A dull, thin or damaged coat
- Skin repair
