Regenerate collagen. Reverse the signs of aging.
GHK-Cu is a clinically studied copper peptide that firms skin, softens fine lines, and restores a younger-looking complexion — a physician-guided alternative to Botox.
One peptide, a cascade of skin renewal
Naturally present in your blood plasma, GHK-Cu signals the body to repair and rebuild. As levels decline with age, supplementing it helps restore the skin's youthful machinery.
Firms & tightens
Rebuilds collagen and elastin to lift loose, sagging skin and improve elasticity.
Softens wrinkles
Visibly reduces fine lines and deep wrinkles for a smoother complexion.
Repairs the barrier
Restores skin-barrier proteins and defends against UV and photodamage.
Evens tone
Reduces hyperpigmentation and clears rough, dull, sun-damaged skin.
Speeds healing
Stimulates wound healing and calms inflammation at the source.
Boosts clarity
Improves overall firmness, radiance, and clarity of the skin surface.
Supports hair
Encourages thicker, fuller hair growth — comparable to 5% minoxidil in study.
Turns back time
Reverses visible aging to help take years off your appearance.
Your body already knows this molecule
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper tripeptide found in human blood plasma. It plays a central role in tissue remodeling — but its concentration falls sharply as we age, dropping roughly 60% between age 20 and 60.
Replenishing GHK-Cu under medical supervision reactivates the collagen-building and repair signals that keep skin firm, smooth, and resilient.
- 01Controlled facial studies showed increased collagen production and improved skin laxity versus placebo.
- 02Reduced wrinkle depth and increased skin thickness compared to vitamin-based alternatives.
- 03Performed comparably to 5% minoxidil for stimulating hair growth in a controlled trial.
GHK-Cu plasma levels by age
A ~60% decline in this repair peptide mirrors the visible loss of firmness and elasticity we associate with aging skin.
A regenerative approach, not just a freeze
Botox temporarily relaxes muscles to mask lines. GHK-Cu works underneath — rebuilding the collagen and structure that create younger skin.

GHK-Cu, answered
Is GHK-Cu really an alternative to Botox? +
They work very differently. Botox temporarily relaxes muscles to soften expression lines. GHK-Cu is regenerative — it signals your skin to rebuild collagen and elastin, improving firmness, texture, and tone over time rather than freezing movement.
How soon will I see results? +
Many people notice improvements within a couple of weeks, with continued benefits as collagen production increases over the following weeks and months.
Do I need a prescription? +
Yes. GHK-Cu therapy at Medshape is available through prescription only. Every plan begins with a medical consultation, and no treatment is administered without a clinical exam.
What benefits does GHK-Cu offer beyond wrinkles? +
Studies and clinical use point to firmer, tighter skin, reduced photodamage and hyperpigmentation, improved skin-barrier repair, faster wound healing, reduced inflammation, and support for thicker hair growth.
How do I get started? +
Book a free consultation using the form above or call 1-866-996-LOSE. A provider will review your goals and history and, if appropriate, create a personalized GHK-Cu plan.
