Copper Peptide AHK-Cu
Also known as: Tripeptide-3, Ala-His-Lys Copper
Copper Peptide AHK-Cu (Alanine-Histidine-Lysine Copper) is a tripeptide that binds copper and has attracted significant research interest due to its potential benefits for hair growth, skin renewal, collagen synthesis, anti-aging, and tissue healing. Like GHK-Cu, AHK-Cu is frequently used in dermatological and hair restoration products, valued for its capacity to promote hair follicle health, enhance scalp condition, and activate regenerative cellular pathways linked to improved skin and hair quality.
Its primary applications in research and skincare include:
Stimulation of hair follicles and support for scalp health
Boosting collagen and elastin synthesis
Skin renewal and reduction of fine lines
Supporting tissue repair and modulating anti-inflammatory processes
Use in anti-aging cosmetic formulations
