Hot Selling Cosmetic Peptide Copper Tripeptide-3 CAS 682809-81-0 AHK -Cu
Product Description
- In the global personal care market, "scalp-care-as-skincare" and "scientific anti-hair loss" have emerged as the fastest-growing premium sectors. Traditional anti-hair loss actives often come with consumer hurdles, such as sudden shedding phases upon withdrawal or poor formulation aesthetics. AHK-Cu (Copper Tripeptide-3) is a highly precise biomimetic signal peptide. Engineered specifically to stimulate hair follicle proliferation, extend the hair growth cycle, and restructure the scalp's dermal matrix, it is rapidly becoming the technological core of premium hair growth serums, scalp treatments, and anti-aging hair care lines.
- Primary Biological Targets: Dermal Papilla Cells (DPCs), Scalp Fibroblasts
- Core Applications: Anti-hair loss targeted serums, scalp priming tonics, eyelash/brow growth boosters, high-performance scalp-aging defense creams.
- As a premier high-activity peptide raw material supplier, we provide high-purity, batch-stable bulk AHK-Cu to help your brand seize the technological edge in the scientific hair care market.

Benefits
While AHK-Cu belongs to the same copper peptide family as the famous skin-remodeling peptide GHK-Cu (Copper Tripeptide-1), the integration of Alanine into its peptide sequence gives it a significantly higher binding affinity for hair follicle structures and scalp tissues:
- Activating Dermal Papilla Cells & Elongating the Anagen Phase
Dermal papilla cells act as the "command center" regulating hair thickness and growth. AHK-Cu significantly stimulates the proliferation of these cells, preventing hair follicles from prematurely entering the catagen (regression) phase. By extending the Anagen (growth) phase, it reduces daily fallout from the root.
- Upregulating Extracellular Matrix (ECM) Synthesis
Scalp aging leads to follicle miniaturization. AHK-Cu efficiently prompts scalp fibroblasts to synthesize Type I Collagen and Elastin. This thickens the surrounding dermal tissue, providing a sturdier "anchoring matrix" for hair roots and preventing premature physical shedding.
- Mitigating Hair-Loss Triggers (Mild DHT Interruption)
In vitro evaluations indicate that AHK-Cu exhibits an inhibitory tendency toward 5-alpha reductase—the enzyme responsible for generating Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the primary culprit behind androgenetic alopecia. It delivers a gentle, drug-free alternative without creating resistance or dependency.
- Optimizing Scalp Microcirculation
The copper complex promotes the expression of vascular endothelial growth factors, stimulating the micro-capillary network of the scalp. This delivers a rich, uninterrupted supply of oxygen and vital nutrients directly to hungry follicles.
- Proven "Hair Growth" Benchmark Performance
In comparative tissue assays, AHK-Cu demonstrates exceptional efficacy in accelerating the growth of follicular epithelial cells, making it a globally recognized, safe alternative to traditional chemical hair stimulants.
- Zero Rebound or Radical Shedding Phases
Unlike harsh pharmaceutical alternatives that can cause localized itching, redness, or a massive "shedding shock" if discontinued, AHK-Cu is entirely biocompatible, non-irritating, and exhibits a superior safety profile.
Application
- Premium Anti-Hair Loss Target Serums
Perfect as a hero active paired with scalp-massaging rollerballs or dropper mechanisms, targeting receding hairlines and thinning crowns.
- Scalp-Clinic Therapy Ampoules
Designed for professional salons or clinical care lines, ideal for post-treatment application or micro-needling protocols to accelerate scalp barrier recovery and follicle awakening.
- Eyelash & Brow Growth Boosters
Capitalizing on its gentle, non-mucosal irritating nature to develop clean, safe, and fast-acting lash-lengthening products.
