Copper in Ayurveda

One of the most popular beauty trends right now is copper peptides.
However, Ayurveda has long been teaching the essence of Copper in our holistic wellness that its healing properties and natural benefits in our body can make huge difference for an optimum overall health.

This is why the Kansa metal (mixture of Copper and Tin) derived from Ayurveda has been was born circa 3,000 BC, during India's Bronze Age and has been in practice since then. 

The Kansa metal, once used in the kitchen to purify drinking water and improve digestion, became a popular face tool when it was found that it warmed up on the skin upon massage, bringing several advantages. Metal was used to balance the skin's pH levels, decrease puffiness, stimulate blood circulation, and encourage oxygen flow to the skin's surface, generating a natural shine.

Copper Peptides in Modern Science and Skin Care

Peptides, which are naturally occurring amino acids, can aid in the synthesis of collagen and elastin, two kinds of connective tissues that are in charge of giving skin its smoothness and firmness.

As we age, collagen — the protein that gives skin its elasticity and strength — is continually being broken down and replaced. Although it's normal to progressively lose collagen as we age, certain lifestyle choices, including smoking or excessive sun exposure, may accelerate the process. Copper peptides are a fantastic treatment for aged skin since they assist to restore collagen.

While this process helps combat signs of aging, helping to give your skin a healthy glow, as you grow older it happens at a much slower rate. The result of this influx of aging is the thinning of skin giving it less softness and flexibility, leading to wrinkles and sagging.

Certain skin care products could be able to assist your skin reintroduce collagen and elastin after you've lost them. Peptides may be beneficial here.
Formally known as polypeptides, they could particularly encourage your skin to produce more collagen, potentially dealing with issues such as:

  • aging spots, 
  • increased pores, 
  • and fine lines
Not only your skin will benefit from it but also your hair - from the connective tissue development brought on by copper peptides by experiencing less breaking and experiencing overall growth.

 

Benefits of copper peptides in skin care

There is evidence to support the use of copper peptides in skin care.


Under the epidermis, or top layer of skin, copper peptides may exert their effects. This explains how peptides may assist in the production of elastin in collagen found deep inside skin tissues.


Overall, research on copper's anti-aging properties on the skin is reliable source. The most promising advantages of copper peptides in skin care include:

1. Reduced appearance of wrinkles

In 2015, a research review was published and reported that copper peptides may reduce the visible signs of aging by increasing the production of collagen in your skin. Copper-peptide complexes appear to increase the production of collagen proteins in your skin by stimulating procollagen synthesis and promoting fibroblast growth. 

Over time, copper peptides may help “plump up” your skin, reducing the visible signs of aging.

2. Firmer Skin

According to the same 2015 scientific review, copper peptides are also thought to assist improve elastin proteins in addition to increased collagen formation. This could contribute to skin that's firmer and smoother.

3. Evens Skin Tone

Due to its capacity to heal skin damage and balance out skin tone, copper peptides differ from other forms of peptides.

It's believed that copper peptides may perhaps repair your skin's damaged connective tissues while also regenerating new ones. This could lessen the manifestation of:

  • sunspots (also called age spots)
  • additional reasons of uneven skin tone besides acne scars
  • other factors causing skin discoloration and problems

4. Antioxidant effects

Additionally, copper peptides may have anti-inflammatory and protective antioxidant effects on the skin. The likelihood of infections has also been shown to be reduced by Copper Peptides as reported by GHK-Cu.
