About PTD-DBM: The Hair Loss Breakthrough
PTD-DBM peptide therapy helps stop hair loss by preventing the mechanism of CXXC5, a protein associated with hair loss. Dr. Cho’s clinic has an experienced hair restoration consultant at Century City. The PTD-DBM peptide therapy targets the root cause of hair loss by disrupting the CXXC5 and Dishevelled protein interaction. The GHK-Cu Hair Treatment Consultation in Los Angeles stimulates hair regrowth and follicle development by activating the WNT/beta-catenin pathway, essential for cell renewal and proliferation. Dr. Jessica Cho. gives expert hair restoration at Century City.
PTD-DBM: The Hair Loss Breakthrough
PTD-DBM is an engineered peptide that helps stop hair loss by preventing the mechanism of CXXC5, a protein associated with hair loss. When CXXC5 binds with the Dishevelled protein, it can cause hair loss by preventing follicle development and hair regrowth – thus, preventing the interaction of these two proteins (which is the main mechanism of PTD-DBM) will help to stimulate hair regrowth and hair neogenesis. By disrupting the interaction between CXXC5 and Dishevelled, PTD-DBM works directly on the WNT/beta-catenin pathway, a highly conserved pathway through evolution responsible for key cellular functions such as proliferation and stem cell renewal.
Why Would You Want to Use PTD-DBM?
- Prevents hair loss
- Promotes the growth of new follicles
- Helps to treat androgenetic alopecia – a pattern hair loss that primarily affects the top and front
of the scalp
- Wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis
What You Need To Know
PTD-DBM is most effective when applied topically directly on the scalp to help induce hair regrowth as well as hair neogenesis. Combined treatment of PTD-DBM with valproic acid, an activator of the WNT/beta-catenin signaling pathway, will also help to further boost hair regrowth and prevent hair loss.
Patient Benefits

- Regenerate damaged skin tissues, especially in human balding scalps
- Accelerated hair regrowth
- New follicle development in areas of baldness
- Prevents and corrects hair loss
- Accelerates wound healing
Frequently Asked Questions
GHK-Cu/Zn-thymulin can be effective in restoring hair growth, with studies showing potential for stimulating hair follicle activity and extending the hair growth phase (anagen), but noticeable results may take several months of consistent use due to the need for time to see significant hair regrowth.
GHK-Cu and Zn-Thymulin are considered generally safe when used in hair restoration, but like any treatment, they may have potential side effects. These might include:
- Mild skin irritation or redness at the application site.
- Temporary dryness or flakiness of the scalp.
- Rare allergic reactions to peptides.
Compared to traditional hair restoration treatments available in Century City, GHK-Cu and Zn-Thymulin have unique benefits:
GHK-Cu (Copper Peptide) stimulates hair growth by promoting scalp blood flow and collagen production.
Zn-Thymulin works by supporting follicle regeneration and reducing inflammation, which helps maintain a healthier scalp environment.
These peptides are non-invasive and natural alternatives to other methods like minoxidil, PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), or hair transplant surgery, which can have more significant side effects or require downtime. GHK-Cu/Zn-Thymulin treatments are ideal for individuals seeking a less aggressive approach.
The cost of GHK-Cu/Zn-Thymulin treatments varies depending on the clinic, but it typically ranges from $300 to $800 per session. The number of sessions required for optimal results depends on the severity of hair loss and individual response to the treatment. On average:
- 4 to 8 sessions are recommended for visible improvement.
- Maintenance treatments may be needed every few months to sustain results.
It's best to consult a provider to develop a personalized treatment plan based on your hair restoration goals.
