Yes. Hair GHK-Cu is a compounded prescription topical preparation requiring a valid prescription from a licensed healthcare provider. A telehealth consultation and scalp health assessment are required before dispensing to confirm suitability and establish an appropriate hair restoration protocol.

Hair GHK-Cu is generally well tolerated on the scalp. Mild scalp sensitivity, temporary redness, or a transient copper or metallic sensation at the application site may occur during initial use. Any persistent scalp irritation, unusual hair changes beyond the expected treatment response, or signs of allergic reaction should be reported to your provider.

Patients with active scalp infections, open scalp lesions, or significant scalp inflammation (psoriasis flare, active seborrheic dermatitis) should not use this product until these conditions have resolved and been evaluated by their provider. Patients with Wilson's disease or copper metabolism disorders must not use copper-containing topicals without specialist guidance. Those with a history of malignancy should discuss use with their provider. Safety during pregnancy and breastfeeding has not been established.

Copper-chelating topicals or systemic copper-chelating agents will reduce GHK-Cu activity. Patients using other topical hair restoration treatments, including minoxidil, finasteride solutions, or tretinoin-containing scalp formulations, should discuss scheduling and compatibility with their provider to optimize outcomes and minimize the risk of barrier disruption or competitive interaction.

Patients with copper metabolism disorders, a history of malignancy, or active scalp conditions require individualized provider evaluation. Your provider will review your complete health and scalp history to determine whether this treatment is appropriate and how it fits within your broader hair restoration protocol, which may include other topical, systemic, or lifestyle interventions.
