Not FDA approvedThymosin beta-4
Thymosin beta-4 is a naturally occurring peptide investigated in tissue repair. Human topical research includes venous ulcers, where wound healing can be measured directly in a defined patient population.
Evidence in this guide: Route-specific clinical wound research; full-length peptide and TB-500 fragments remain distinct.

GHK-Cu is a copper-binding peptide researched for skin remodeling and repair. Cell studies examine connective-tissue production, a small human facial-serum study measured wrinkles, and clinics such as Perfect B discuss skin and hair goals with injectable use.
Evidence in this guide: Human topical research, laboratory findings and clinic-reported injectable practices are different evidence streams.

BPC-157 is explored for tendon, ligament and gut recovery. Laboratory work examines repair signaling; clinic reports and community accounts describe pain and movement changes.
Evidence in this guide: Tendon-cell experiments and small human reports, with community experiences shown separately.
