Copper tripeptide-3

Copper tripeptide-3 (AHK-Cu) is a bioactive peptide with promotion of hair growth effect. Copper tripeptide-3 increases dermal cell proliferation and viability while increasing the deposition of collagen to renew the extracellular matrix. Copper tripeptide-3 stimulates the elongation of human hair follicles and proliferation of dermal papilla cells[1][2].
