Copper Benefits

Skin rejuvenation

Copper is an essential trace element vital for the normal function of many tissues and indispensable for the generation of new capillaries and skin.

It is understood that part of the increased risk of developing skin or foot skin pathologies in patients with compromised blood circulation is due to low local copper levels. It is further understood that copper ions released from CuTEC® and absorbed through the skin would improve the well-being of the skin of patients (to include diabetic patients) by inducing angiogenesis and expression and stabilization of extracellular skin proteins
