AHK-Cu – 100mg

Key Functions & Benefits

• Hair & Scalp Benefits: Stimulates hair follicle elongation, boosts dermal papilla cell proliferation, and reduces oxidative stress in the scalp.
• Skin Benefits: Enhances fibroblast production, improving skin elasticity, texture, and reducing fine lines.
• Mechanism: It works by enhancing superoxide dismutase (SOD) production to neutralize free radicals and stimulates vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).
• Application & Usage: AHK-Cu is often sold as a 99% pure powder for DIY formulations (serums, shampoos) at recommended concentrations of 0.3% to 2%. It is commonly used in the evening to allow for maximum contact time.
• Vs. GHK-Cu: While related, AHK-Cu is often cited as being more effective for hair growth specifically, whereas GHK-Cu is widely used for general skin rejuvenation.
