Overview |
AHK-Cu, as a copper peptide, demonstrates multiple benefits in promoting hair growth, regulating vascular functions, and influencing the hair growth cycle. Its application in cosmetic formulations further highlights its potential for enhancing skin and hair health. |
Composition | AHK-Cu is a copper peptide, consisting of a tripeptide (AHK) with a copper ion linked to it. |
Natural Occurrence | Found in the blood of most mammals. |
Hair Growth Stimulation | AHK-Cu is recognized for increasing hair follicle size. Stimulates scalp blood flow, contributing to new hair growth. |
Comparison with GHK-Cu | AHK-Cu is noted as having a stronger effect than the Gly-His-Lys (GHK-Cu) tripeptide in the context of hair growth. |
Application in Cosmetics | AHK-Cu can be incorporated into skincare, haircare, and nail products. Recommended levels range from 0.5% to 2%. |
Use in Hair Growth Products | AHK-Cu is recognized as a valuable ingredient in products aimed at promoting hair growth and overall hair health. |
Refining Eye Lift contains the copper peptide L-Alanine-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine Copper (INCI Alanine/Histidine/Lysine Polypeptide Copper HCl) or AHK-Cu. This is a multifunctional copper peptide which both increases dermal cell proliferation and viability while increasing the deposition of collagen to renew the extracellular matrix.
There was a significant change in both AHK-Cu usage from peak to least across all days at p<0.0001 with Cohen's d=1.35 and exercise performance, strength and stamina. Overall changes in the population age 40-81 showed 31% to 70% fitness improvement in sixty days. Study data warrants further research.
