 At CopperPeptideHair.com, you'll learn about the benefits of Copper Peptide Y-3® in the fight against DHT related hair thinning and hair loss. What exactly are copper peptides? Simply put, peptides are small pieces of proteins (amino acids), which are the building blocks from which most living tissue is derived. Some peptides have an affinity for bonding tightly with copper, thus creating a "copper peptide". The benefits of copper peptides have been well documented. Copper peptides have been proven to accelerate wound repair, increase skin re-epithelialization, thicken and improve the elasticity of skin, improve hair transplant success, increase hair follicle size, stimulate hair growth, reduce hair thinning and hair loss, and block oxidative damage common to DHT related alopecia. Copper is vital to having healthy hair and a healthy scalp. By applying specific copper peptides directly to areas of hair loss and thinning hair, it becomes possible to stop the negative effects of DHT related alopecia, facilitating thick, healthy hair growth. The mechanism of copper peptide action is relatively complex. GHK-Cu induces the degradation of "extra-large" collagen aggregates found in scars and promotes the synthesis of smaller more regular collagen found in normal skin. This healthy collagen is acknowledged as part of the matrix that facilitates cellular communication vital to hair loss prevention. Other important effects of GHK-Cu include the ability to regulate the growth rate and migration of different types of cells, significant anti-inflammatory action, and the ability to prevent oxidation in the tissues. The net result is a faster, better and "cleaner" healing of damage caused by DHT in the scalp, and ultimately the prevention of alopecia by topical application.
