In the skin, Copper Peptide helps to:
1. Stimulate Collagen Formation, diminishing fine lines and firming the skin.
2. Stimulate Elastin Formation, cutting down on sagging and fine lines.
3. Stimulate the formation of the extracellular cement between cells, thus improving skin strength, cutting down on fragility.
4. Stimulate the formation of GAGS (glycosaminoglycans). This helps to thicken the dermis resulting in a lessening of sagging and helps firm the skin.
5. Increase blood vessel formation and oxygenation within the skin.
6. Act as a potent antioxidant by stimulating the enzymatic function of Superoxide Dismutase.
Copper Peptide products by Skin Biology are the very latest in
anti-aging technology. The Skin Biology Products were invented by Dr. Loren
Pickart and are the most advanced versions of his highly successful Iamin-based
copper-peptide skin repair technology. Dr. Pickart has invented more
clinically-proven products for skin and hair regeneration than any other
scientist or physician in history.
Skin Remodeling is the process that removes proteins
and older cells from the skin thus removing scars,
lesions, and wrinkles while smoothing the skin.
Increasing skin remodeling is the key producing a
biologically younger skin.
Copper-peptides help activate your natural repair and remodeling process that
rebuilds and renews skin, nails and hair. This helps reduce lines and wrinkles
without irritation and produces skin, nails and hair that are more youthful.
During aging, skin proteins accumulate damage from many
causes - sun damage, free radical injuries, natural aging, and so on.
Recent research has established that copper-peptide complexes
remove damaged proteins such as damaged collagen and elastin.
The old damaged protein is removed and replaced with new
collagen and elastin fibers. This removes scar tissue and
restores skin elasticity and reduces wrinkles. The activation
of such proteins may explain the potent scar reduction
properties of these copper peptide creams.
Copper-peptides also increase the skin's
regenerative processes - in addition to accelerating
removal of damaged protein in the skin, they stimulate skin
renewal without hydroxy acids or lasers, and help to produce
a better skin renewal with milder exfoliation or
various controlled skin damage methods. Copper
peptides enhances the skin's natural regenerative
responses by helping stimulate new capillary formation
(angiogenesis), increasing the biosynthesis of collagen,
elastin and the water-holding proteoglycans and
glycosaminoglycans.
The Skin Biology Copper Peptides work well in conjunction with exfoliating acids such as alpha and beta hydroxy (Salicylic Acid and Glycolic Acid).
Clinical studies have found copper-peptides - such as used in skin
renewal creams - to be more effective in restoring the skin's collagen than
Vitamin C or retinoic acid (retin-A). Collagen and elastin are rebuilt, giving
you a firmer, more elastic skin. The skin's internal water-holding proteins are
increased (true moisturization), and the size of the skin's sexual pheromone
secreting apocrine glands are increased.
Copper-peptides help activate your skin's system that removes
damaged collagen and elastin from the skin. Furthermore,
copper-peptide creams have been proven faster and better than
Kinerase(TM) in improving skin texture, reducing blotchiness,
and reducing fine wrinkles. Microbiological
studies have found the creams to also inhibit the growth of
dangerous,pathogenic skin bacteria.
When creams containing copper-peptides are applied to the skin, only very small
amounts of the copper-peptides penetrate into the skin. Copper-peptides have passed
numerous safety tests. Scientific studies of copper-peptides have found
that the amount of copper taken into the body from such copper-peptide
creams is insignificant and does not raise total blood copper levels. However,
the microscopic amount of copper-peptide that does enter the skin's upper layer
is sufficient to help stimulate skin regeneration.
Not all Copper Peptide products are alike!
Some Copper Peptide products do not contain a sufficient amount of Copper Peptide to be effective, while other Copper Peptide products do not contain an effective type of Copper Peptide complex at all!
Certain Copper Peptide products will degenerate quickly and thus become ineffective, or they will break down on the skin when combined with other skin carfe products and become ineffective!
The new breakdown-resistant copper peptides from Skin Biology give a longer lasting effect and much stronger skin regeneration.
Because of their exceptional stability, they can be
used with hydroxy acids for skin renewal.
Not all copper-peptides and copper-complexes have
these actions. A number of companies sell copper
complexes purported to help skin but there is no
credible scientific evidence
(such as peer-reviewed publications in dermatology
journals) that these complexes give effective skin
regeneration.
These products have been tested and found to have
only marginal activity at best. Most had no activity
and some actually inhibited skin renewal. Some are made
with yeast and bacteria peptides that may cause
allergic reactions.
The copper peptide complex must contain a particular peptide,
GHK-Cu [N(2)-(N-Glycyl-L-histidyl)-L-lysine] in order
for the skin to absorb it correctly. In addition, there must be
an adequate amount of the copper peptide complex in order
to stimulate the skin regenerating and remodeling process. Many Copper
Creams on the market today either do not contain this particular
Copper Peptide Complex, or do not contain an adequate amount of
the Copper Peptide complex to be effective.
The Copper Peptide Products we sell contain this particular
coppr peptide in the most potent and effective
amounts, and are invented by the actual dicoverer of positive benefits of Copper
Peptide on the skin and hair!
The Copper Peptides developed at Skin Biology are
based on soybean protein peptides. This type of
peptides have remarkable safety properties and are
used in fluids used for intravenous feeding of
hospital patients. Such peptides are also used
to make synthetic milk given to newborn infants when
the babies have disease conditions that make them
reject their mother's milk or milk from other
animals such as cows and goats.
Why Skin Biology's Copper Peptides are the Most Effective and Safest.
Skin Biology's new and patented copper peptide
technology is Dr. Pickart's most effective copper
peptide system to date. These breakdown-resistant,
improved copper peptides give a longer-acting and
stronger skin regeneration and also can be used
with hydroxy acids and Retin-A. The single peptides (
tripeptides or pentapeptides) used in many products are
fragile, short-acting, and cannot be used with hydroxy
acids.
Extensive safety testing has proven Skin Biology's
copper peptides to be nonallergenic and non-irritating.
Skin Biology's copper peptides have neither the
allergenic sensitization problems of the bacterial
produced copper peptides nor the biological
inactivity ("colorless-copper") of copper
complexes used by some irresponsible cosmetic companies.
The Copper Peptide products we sell are the Most-Potent,
Most-Effective, Strongest Copper-Peptide Skin Regeneration Creams and Serums
Available, from the Inventor of the Science!

Choose the Right Copper Peptide Product for Your Skin Type:
The best Protect & Restore cream for you depends on your skin
type, stage of life, and personal life style. Because of such personal skin
variations, P&R is formulated in various versions. The Copper Peptide Serum
and the P&R Classic are the
most basic copper-peptide versions. Copper Peptide Serum is oil-free
and is the most basic formula without any added ingredients. Because of the very
simple ingredients and oil-free formula,
it is great for oily skin and sensitive skin. The P&R Classic is
also great for sensitive skin because the formula is also free of added
ingredients which could irritate sensitive skin. It is also the best formula
to start out with if you are unsure of your skin's reaction to a new product.
P&R with Retinol and Oil of
Lavender is the strongest anti-wrinke cream and contains a high retinol concentration and
oil of lavender.
Younger persons under age 30 should start with P&R Classic or Copper Peptide Serum.
Many people, especially over age 30, have found the strongest P&R with Retinol and Oil of Lavender to be the best at improving facial appearance and
skin tone. Some find P&R with Retinol and Oil of Lavender will clear
chronic acne in a few weeks. However, in some people, (about 7%), P&R with
Retinol and Oil of Lavender may cause skin outbreaks which could be due to
the retinol or an overall stimulation of the skins metabolism.
We generally recommend starting with P&R Classic or Copper Peptide Serum. If you later
want more skin renewal and anti-wrinkle activity, try the P&R with
Retinol, which is the strongest cream and also good for
reducing scars and stretch marks (although for stretch marks and scars, we
recommend the TriReduction creams).
The addition of Retinol to the Copper Peptide products is
a further boost to anti-aging. Vitamin A/Retinol helps to remove wrinkles but
mainly by reducing collagen/elastin degradation. A protein complex called AP-1
produces the enzymes that break apart and degrade collagen and elastin, the
major structural materials in skin. Retinol increases the wrinkle reduction but
also may increase acne outbreaks.
The need for different versions of P&R is similar to the use
of different versions of Retin-A or Hydroxy Acids for people with different
skin types.
The oil of lavender has soothing effects on the skin. Oil of
Lavender was used on wounds in ancient Greece and Rome over 2,000 years ago.
Today it is widely used in clinical wound-treatment products. In one
placebo-controlled blinded study of 635 women, it was found that the
application of oil of lavender to the outer birth canal resulted in much less
pain and discomfort after childbirth. Do not use P&R with Oil of lavender
if you are sensitive to Oil of Lavender. Use the P&R Classic instead.
All versions of P&R are compatible when used with alpha
hydroxy acids (such as Glycolic Acid) and retin-A. However, some have reported that P&R is not
compatible with certain skin cleansers, especially if they are not completely
removed from the skin. P&R should not be used at the same time as vitamin C
creams since the copper-peptide inactivate the vitamin C.
Combining a
Glycolic
Acid Peel or a
Glycolic
Acid Treatment Cream with a Copper Peptide product will help to stimulate
cell turnover and skin regeneration, thereby producing more vibrant and
smoother-looking skin even faster than with one product alone.
Exfoliation is a
proven skin regeneration treatment and combining an exfoliation product
with a Copper Peptide Product will speed your results.
Combining a Copper Peptide Product with a Glycolic Acid Product
will help to stimulate and speed collagen and elastin production, thereby
producing faster results for smoother-looking skin. Simply mix a small
amount of both together and apply a thin layer to the skin.
For best results, mix any of the Protect & Restore Creams with
the 10% or 15% Glycolic Acid Creams, or any of the GlyMed Glycolic Acid Treatment Products (The GlyMed products contain high strenghts of Glycolic and Lactic Acid).
The oil-free Copper Peptide Serum is best mixed with the oil-free
15% Glycolic Acid Gel, the Exfol Serum, or the GlyMed AHA Accelerator.
The Copper Peptide Serum is the most potent
Copper-Peptide Skin Regeneration Serum Available! CP Serum has 51.0 times
more copper-peptide than Neova Night TherapyTM and 19.5 times more
copper-peptide than Blue CopperTM!
The Protect & Restore Creams for sale below have 16.4 times
more clinically-proven, skin-renewing copper-peptide than Neutrogena Visibly
Firm Night CreamTM, 17.5 times more copper-peptide than Neova Night TherapyTM
and 6.7 times more copper-peptide than Blue CopperTM!
Copper-Peptides have been proven to improve hair growth! We also sell Copper Peptide shampoos, conditioners, and
hair growth products on our Hair Growth Page!
