Mechanism of Action (MOA)
GHK is a naturally occurring tripeptide composed of glycine, histidine, and lysine. It is known to modulate cellular signaling pathways by supporting the regulation of gene expression related to extracellular matrix components. GHK interacts with metal ions, particularly copper(II), facilitating processes associated with matrix protein synthesis and remodeling. Through these biochemical interactions, GHK may influence cellular communication involved in the maintenance of skin structural integrity and homeostasis.
GHK peptide is suitable for incorporation into a variety of cosmetic formulations designed for skin and hair care.
- Add to serums, creams, or lotions for facial and body care- Include in eye contour products- Formulate into after-sun or soothing gels- Use in hair care products such as shampoos, conditioners, or scalp treatments- Compatible with water-based emulsions and gels- Recommended for leave-on and rinse-off applications
