I am a true believer it it. I can tell you 100% my skin is tightening. People I don't see often comment and ask. I take it and also use the GHK face cream.

I have a GHK-Cu/KPV cream that I use on my face and my daughter uses on her acne that works great. It helps tighten the skin but also helps with redness/inflammation.

I'm about to start running GLOW as well.

My wife wants to use to to reduce some light stretch marks / loose skin she has from pregnancy.

I am assuming this would be a good application of the product?

I'm curious why you're not using the KLOW stack. Do you administer subcutaneous KPV separately, in addition to the topical application? KPV has been great for reducing inflammation and swelling at my surgically repaired knee, and it also seems to help significantly with my gut's handling of higher doses of Reta. Additionally, my allergies appear to be reduced since I started taking it.

That's pricey! Was thinking of getting some to help my daughter out with some acne. It does work?

I know it's helped me with some loose skin. Not sure on the stretch marks.

Super cop 2X cream is what my wife has used and it's worked really well. That plus all the muscle she has built.

That stuff was recommended by all the girls on Jay's forum for that specific purpose. It's really strong a little stingy but it works. Give it some time though.

Simply because I have a full kit of GLOW right now that I want to use. I think KLOW is great, and also the new mixes of BPC/TB/KPV that some suppliers are putting out now are great.

Obviously no promises, but it has worked well for me and my 14-yr old daughter. Another, much cheaper, option is Ivermectin horse paste from Tractor Supply.

I'm going to have to look closer but I think peptira (known for good peptide prices) might have their skincare sister company/site up for skincare or it should be soon. I actually screenshot something to check it later from tiktok



Edit: I guess that screenshot means their preview is tonight at 730 central since I took the ss just now

Cool! Looked at other stuff on the cream site and their prices were pretty steep across the board. Will keep my eyes open and may grab one for her to try.

The Wolverine + (BPC, TB, KPV) is a great blend also imo. I'm actually using it in the evening on top of KLOW in the morning to not overdo it on the GHKCu but to get a larger dose of everything else for my ruptured patella. I wish I had started this immediately after surgery because it really seems to have sped up recovery, swelling, and tenderness after PT since I started it.

Haven't had time to look closely to verify but searched Google for the brand and wording from my previous screenshot then found this website: https://skinbyrender.com/

It looks like a match but don't take my word for it. With that said, I signed up for the website's July list for first access. Will update accordingly.

I am taking 2mg every day in the morning. Started about 2 weeks ago, the only issue I have is injection site soreness. It's not too bad but noticeable for most of the day. Don't have any problems with Reta/tesa.

Ghk-cu is one of my absolute favorites. Just started my 2nd cycle. Almost completely healed and cleared up an ugly red keloided scar I've had for 10 years. I'm still amazed.

I'll tell you what I've told others tho. After 4 weeks I wanted to quit because I saw nothing. After 8 weeks I wanted to quit because I saw nothing but kept going for entire vial. 10 weeks I started noticing my scar clearing up. After 12 weeks I've decided I'll cycle it the rest of my life my skin got so much better.

Only annoying thing is it actually hurts to pin now I swear my skin is so much thicker it's harder to pierce. Is this a thing for anyone else?

Started Epitalon on Sunday night. How long is this supposed to be before you see results? I only ask because according to my whoop the last 3 nights esp last night I've got more restorative sleep than any days in last 3 months and actually feel rested. Placebo maybe but that's crazy if so

I haven't run epitalon yet, but from what I understand people feel the sleep effects almost immediately.

Curious to see what your dosage is? A lot of chatter back and forth on Epitalon. Most protocols say 5-10 mg everyday for 10/20 days. Folks say that's too high. It should be 1-2 mg/day.

Been running Tesa/Reta for 8 weeks (also other ones too like GhK and MOTS-C and SLU). Got a follow up dexa

14.3% decrease in overall body fat
17.2% decrease in visceral fat.
4% increase in lean mass (guessing mostly water because of Tesa)

Overall really happy. The visceral fat was a huge concern for me so that decrease over the 8 weeks makes me excited.

You guys that are running GHK-Cu or GLOW, do you get bruising or redness in the area after injections? I have taken literally hundreds of peptide shots over the last several months, and haven't had this reaction to anything except the GLOW I started this week. I had small histamine reactions to tesa/ipa, but never bruising.

I'm taking it at night at a 2.5/0.5/0.5 dosage. No burning or pain at injection, but the next morning I will have a thumbnail sized bruise. I tried it Tuesday night in my left love handle, Wednesday night in my right love handle, and last night in my upper right thigh and had the same result in all three places.

I take GHK and no I don't get that but it's the only one that stings. Not always but sometimes.

Then how does the purchased cream work? I doubt these providers are doing anything much different.

I dont think they are. Just like the difference with grey market and compounding pharma they mix it for you instead of doing it yourself.

And who the heck is this Randy Cody dude to contradict our AgEng06? The nerve!

I'm probably gonna try the mix in a cream that my daughter already likes and see how it goes.

My daughter actually used it on acne as well and she thinks it may have worked a little better than the GHK-Cu/KPV cream... BUT she also thinks it's a little weird so she still prefers to use the cream.
