Topical GHK

[cookieguggleman]

Anyone have experience with topical GHK they can share? I was all set to start using it, but then went down a Reddit hole and saw some posts where it really damaged people‘s skin. Would love to hear from the hive mind from people who have used it – – what worked, what didn’t, how much, mixing it with their other lotions, etc.

I micro needled 1.5 mm yesterday, used pn, ha and Exosomes (exomune, human) separately, and then three hours maybe, later, used klow (has ghk-cu) and it def reddened the skin, or kept it red, so it’s irritating even with kpv and bpc. I washed it all off at hour 6, and my face is no longer red this morning. Didn’t damage my skin, but with open channels it’s an irritant, doesn’t mean it didn’t do the job though, my skin looks okay today. Even after micro needling 1.5 and 2mm injections of pn in spots, no left over irritation, no swelling, and no injection lumps. (Pn=Meamo pn pro)

What were the horror stories in your rabbit hole? I’ve heard something about ghk skin, because the copper, makes some people look more tired, more dry.

I use a topical copper peptide version with no issues. I believe it can depend on what other products you apply at the same time, if they are compatible or not.

When I tried micro-needling my scalp, I remember it was recommended to not use any topicals for at least 24-48hrs.

I have dumped 2g in a container of Neutrogena Hydroboost for a few years now. I use it in every other night as I also have a Perricone MD fave I use along with estriol. My skin has improved immensely.

I def should have stopped after the ha, pn, and exo. But I had this idea to inject sub q klow into scars and lax areas, since my face was all messy and I had 3 days off. I ended up not being able to go 1mm ish with the needle under my chin, so I just used it topically. My skin looks amazing day 5-6.
Much like doing grey peptides, I’m a risk taker, when it comes to things I trust, even on my face. I did once inject Exosomes, and had red welt/nubs, for a couple months, under my eyes. I either didn’t go deep enough/too deep or Exosomes shouldn’t be injected at that strength. I think it was the Exosomes, exohume is pretty thick.

How long did the results from the klow injections last? Did it help a lot in the lax areas? I have some loose skin from weight loss that I'm trying to tighten up.

i'm currently taking ghk-cu/kpv subq, I love the glow it gives me. I've been on the lookout for topical ghk-cu but none of my suppliers stock it, are you buying it gray or through normal retail channels?

I think subq klow could be done any where, I just thought getting right in it would be “even better”. (I know laennec is great for scars, and I’ve done that a few times, I figured the same may apply, I’m a mad scientist 👩‍🔬👷🏼‍♀️) It has not improved laxity, it has helped my skin, over all, but it’s not a miracle. If I had never used it, I might have more laxity. I have a bleb of skin under my chin, since childhood, I could tuck my chin and have a sizable double chin, when I weighed 115 pounds, and just recently, I’m 170 pounds now, the skin has turned to look droopy as I age and as natural hormones stop/lessen. Only a lower face lift would help, and I’m not ready for that.

I think Uther has it

I found topical ghk from simple peptides and also ageless human.

Internationally, Uther does have topical GHK-Cu since their US warehouse has it also.

For domestic/US, I get topical GHK-Cu for $8 a gram. It is advertised by a small reseller at that price (in the buy/sell/trade sections of GB groups on TG). Some GB groups also sell the topical with other in-stock items.
