Bis(Tripeptide-1) Copper Acetate is a copper-containing complex of Tripeptide-1 acetate, a derivative of the famous GHK peptide (Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine). Its solution is a clear blueish liquid. Its color results from the presence of copper ions. It is very similar to Cu-GHK peptide (Copper Tripeptide-1).

Discovered in 1973, Tripeptide-1 is a fragment of collagen type I that exhibits biological activity as a signaling peptide, including stimulation of fibroblasts and extracellular matrix components production, inhibition of collagenase activity, and chemotaxis effect as a chemoattractant for fibroblasts. Copper is an essential microelement that plays an important role in many enzymes, such as Cytochrome C Oxidase, Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), and Lysin Oxidase, involved in energy production, protection against free radicals, and cross-linking of elastin and collagen fibers.

So, combining those two essential components into a single complex compound, Bis(Tripeptide-1) Copper Acetate, provides multiple beneficial effects useful in many anti-aging skincare applications. It boosts collagen production, speeds up wound healing, and accelerates regenerative processes in the skin.

Bis(Tripeptide-1) Copper Acetate promotes dermal cell proliferation and renewal, effectively fighting against the formation of scars and stretch marks. It visibly reduces fine lines and wrinkles, enhances skin elasticity and firmness, and improves dermal tissue repair and barrier function. Incorporated in hair care applications, it enhances hair follicles and promotes hair growth.
