What are copper peptides?
Copper peptides are naturally occurring complexes of copper and amino acids that promote healing, reduce inflammation, and support hair follicle function.
They are found in some hair serums and topical treatments for their role in stimulating blood flow and increasing the activity of key enzymes in the scalp.
When combined with red light therapy, copper peptides may help amplify regenerative effects, promoting stronger, thicker hair over time.
