- BPC-157
- VEGF upregulation, angiogenesis, FAK-paxillin activation
- Days 1–14 post-op
- 250–500 mcg/day SC
- Fastest vascular repair; reduces edema duration by 30–45%
- Stable 28 days at 2–8°C; light-sensitive
- TB-500
- Actin regulation, cellular migration, anti-fibrotic signaling
- Days 5–30 post-op
- 2–5 mg twice weekly SC
- Prevents rigid scar formation; maintains tissue pliability
- Stable 28 days at 2–8°C; requires slow reconstitution
- GHK-Cu
- Collagen cross-linking (lysyl oxidase cofactor), TGF-beta1 suppression
- Days 14+ (remodelling phase)
- 1–2 mg/day SC
- Structures collagen into organised tissue; reduces hypertrophic scarring by 35–40%
- Copper bond degrades in light/high pH; reconstitute in small batches
- Combined Protocol
- Synergistic effects across all three phases
- Days 1–30+
- BPC-157 + TB-500 (weeks 1–4), add GHK-Cu (week 2 onward)
- Addresses acute inflammation, proliferation, and remodelling simultaneously
- Requires separate vials; do not mix peptides in same syringe
