What It Does
KI-Cu-01 introduces one of dermatology’s most respected regenerative actives: copper peptides.
These signalling molecules are associated with tissue repair pathways, collagen regulation and antioxidant defence.
Rather than forcing change in the skin, KI-Cu-01 supports the biological processes responsible for healthy regeneration.
This allows skin to improve its resilience, structural integrity and recovery behaviour over time.
The Science
Copper peptide complexes such as GHK-Cu are widely studied regenerative molecules associated with skin repair environments.
Within the skin they influence several biological processes.
Dermal Matrix Support
Copper peptides are associated with increased production of:
collagen
elastin
glycosaminoglycans
These structures support skin firmness and elasticity.
Repair Signalling
Copper peptides naturally occur in wound healing environments and are linked to tissue remodelling and cellular repair behaviour.
Antioxidant Support
Copper peptides influence antioxidant enzyme systems including superoxide dismutase (SOD), helping reduce oxidative stress.
Visible Skin Benefits
Regular use may support:
improved skin firmness
smoother texture
stronger skin resilience
improved tolerance to active skincare
faster recovery after environmental stress
Over time skin appears calmer, stronger and structurally healthier.
How To Use
Apply 2–3 drops to clean skin.
Within the SKNtelligence system the layering order is:
Signal Matrix → Knowledge Index → Nourishment Substrate
Evening use is generally preferred.
