AHK-CU (Copper Peptide for Hair)
AHK-CU (Copper Peptide for Hair)
Price range: $ 46 through $ 87
Alanine-Histidine-Lysine-Copper — a copper tripeptide with higher affinity for hair follicles than GHK-Cu. Protects follicles against DHT-related miniaturization, prolongs the anagen (growth) phase, stimulates dermal papilla cells, and improves scalp vascularity via VEGF.
Benefits
✓ Reduces DHT-related hair follicle miniaturization
✓ Prolongs anagen (active hair growth) phase
✓ Stimulates dermal papilla cell proliferation
✓ Improves scalp blood flow (VEGF upregulation)
✓ Thickens hair shaft
✓ Fewer side effects than minoxidil
✓ Promotes healthy scalp environment
