Copper peptides explained: the science behind CU Restore
GHK-Cu, Hexapeptide-8 and hyaluronic acid — a closer look at the actives powering post-treatment recovery.
By Medifeel Clinical Team
Copper peptides have a long history in skin science, and CU Restore brings them together with two further actives in a high-strength microneedling serum. Understanding what each ingredient does helps you place the product confidently in your protocols.
8% GHK-Cu
GHK-Cu is a copper-binding peptide associated with supporting collagen production and skin renewal. At 8%, CU Restore delivers a notably high concentration for professional use.
Hexapeptide-8
Often discussed in the context of expression lines, Hexapeptide-8 works to relax and smooth, refining overall skin texture.
Hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid plumps and replenishes moisture, helping repair the skin barrier and accelerate recovery after needling and energy-based procedures.
