GHK-Cu is one of the most talked-about peptides in anti-aging and biohacking, but what does the science actually say? This video breaks down how the copper peptide GHK-Cu works, why it naturally declines with age, and how it became linked to skin repair, collagen production, hair growth, and tissue regeneration. Discovered by biochemist Loren Pickart, GHK-Cu is a tiny three-amino-acid peptide that binds copper and helps deliver it to areas involved in repair. Research has found that it can influence thousands of genes, including pathways associated with inflammation, tissue breakdown, and regeneration. The strongest evidence is in skin and wound healing, where topical GHK-Cu has been studied for its effects on collagen density, firmness, and repair. Early research has also explored possible effects on hair growth and damaged lung tissue, although those areas have much more limited evidence. Then there’s injectable GHK-Cu. That’s where the story becomes far more complicated. Excess co
