What is GHK-Cu cream?

(bioactive copper peptide moisturizer)

This daily moisturizer contains GHK-Cu, a natural tripeptide with copper that supports wound healing and skin remodeling. It improves skin firmness, elasticity, and hydration while supporting collagen synthesis. Unlike tretinoin or active exfoliants, GHK-Cu is non-irritating and designed for daily, long-term use as a foundational anti-aging treatment.

Frequently asked questions

How do I use GHK-Cu Cream?

Applied to the skin, once a day, at bedtime. The starting prescription is 1 to 2 pumps each time. Your physician sets your own dose and it is printed on your label.

How much arrives in each shipment?

1 bottle at the starting strength, shipped to your door from a licensed US pharmacy.

Can I use GHK-Cu with tretinoin?

Yes. Use tretinoin at night; GHK-Cu cream in the morning or as a base layer. They work synergistically: tretinoin accelerates cell turnover, GHK-Cu supports collagen remodeling.

Can I use all four together?

Yes. Apply in order: GHK-Cu cream + Vital C5 in morning, HydroTone as hydrating layer, LuminEye under eyes. At night, use GHK-Cu again. They layer well.

Can I use these with active treatments like tretinoin?

Yes. Use actives at night; these in morning or as base layers. They support and protect your skin while tretinoin accelerates renewal.

How long before I see results?

Immediate: improved hydration and texture. At 4-8 weeks: brightening and firmness. At 12 weeks: noticeable anti-aging benefit. Results compound.

Are these sufficient anti-aging alone?

These are maintenance and support. For significant wrinkle reduction or dark spot removal, combine with active treatments (tretinoin, hydroquinone, etc.). Alone, these prevent aging and support radiance.
