Glow
Skin ages from the outside in and the inside out. This protocol works on both: a copper-peptide cream to rebuild collagen and firmness at the surface, plus glutathione and NAD+ to calm oxidative stress and restore the cellular energy your skin repairs with.

What's in this protocol:
GHK-Cu Cream
A copper-binding peptide in a topical cream, studied for collagen synthesis, skin remodeling, wound healing and firmness — the aesthetic centerpiece of the Glow protocol.
Glutathione
The body's master antioxidant — a tripeptide that neutralizes oxidative stress, supports liver detoxification and regenerates other antioxidants like vitamins C and E.
NAD+
A coenzyme central to mitochondrial energy and the sirtuin "longevity" enzymes. Levels fall with age — restoring them supports energy, metabolism and cellular repair.
Rebuild the surface. Renew the cell.
GHK-Cu rebuilds collagen at the surface
A copper-peptide cream studied for collagen synthesis and skin remodeling — in a small skin-biopsy study (about 10 people per group), a copper-peptide cream raised procollagen in more people than vitamin C or a retinoid (Abdulghani et al., 1998). It targets firmness and texture where you can see it.
Glutathione defends against oxidative stress
Glutathione is the body's master antioxidant; it neutralizes the oxidative stress that dulls and ages skin. Note that injectable glutathione is not FDA-approved for skin tone, and the visible-skin evidence is from the oral form — your physician evaluates whether it fits you.
NAD+ powers skin repair
Skin renewal is energy-hungry work. NAD+ restores the mitochondrial energy and DNA-repair activity your skin cells need to actually rebuild — available as an injection or nasal spray.
One physician, one coordinated plan
Your Glow stack is prescribed and monitored by a single Chia physician, who tunes each element to your skin and health profile — not three disconnected products.

"I'm 54 and gave up on serum promises a decade ago. By week eight the texture on my cheeks was different enough that I stopped using the blurring filter on work calls."
Francine L.
"The crepey skin on my neck bothered me more than any wrinkle. Six months of nightly application and it's visibly firmer. The photo from January lives on my phone for skeptical friends."
Glenda P.
"I work the cosmetics counter, so I've tried everything with a peptide on the label. This is the one that finally earned a permanent spot on my shelf. The lines around my mouth are noticeably softer, month three."
Juliet K.
"Thirty years of ranch sun left my forearms looking older than the rest of me. They've evened out noticeably since fall. I'm not chasing youth, just repair."
Cass B.
"An old acne scar on my temple has softened to where I stopped angling away from cameras. Topical, painless, zero-drama routine."
Imani F.
"I'm 64 and the backs of my hands were my tell. After half a year they look less papery, and I'm vain enough to celebrate that."

Frequently asked questionsquestions
Glow is our skin-renewal stack: GHK-Cu Cream, glutathione and NAD+. It works on skin from two directions — the copper-peptide cream rebuilds collagen and firmness at the surface, while glutathione provides antioxidant support and NAD+ restores the cellular energy your skin repairs with. Most people look for visible changes in firmness and tone over 8 to 12 weeks, with individual results varying.
Each targets a different layer of skin aging. GHK-Cu works topically on collagen — in a small skin-biopsy study (about 10 people per group), a copper-peptide cream raised procollagen in more people than vitamin C or a retinoid (Abdulghani et al., 1998). Glutathione, the body's master antioxidant, defends skin cells against the oxidative stress that dulls and ages skin; its visible-skin evidence comes from the oral form (Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017). NAD+ restores the mitochondrial energy and DNA-repair activity skin renewal depends on. Together they cover surface and cell.
GHK-Cu Cream is applied topically to rebuild collagen and firmness where you can see it. Glutathione — available as an injection or nasal spray — neutralizes the oxidative stress that dulls and ages skin; injectable glutathione is not FDA-approved for skin tone, and the visible-skin evidence is from the oral form. NAD+ powers the cellular repair behind renewal and comes as an injection or nasal spray for this protocol. Your physician selects the forms that fit you.
We're measured about it. GHK-Cu has decades of lab and animal work plus smaller human skin trials behind its collagen and remodeling effects. Glutathione's skin and antioxidant benefits come from placebo-controlled human studies, most noticeable in people over 40. NAD+ boosters reliably raise cellular NAD+ in humans, though deeper anti-aging effects are still mostly seen in lab and animal research. Real signals, framed honestly — not a miracle.
Yes. Your Glow protocol is prescribed and monitored by a single US-licensed Chia physician who tunes each element — the cream, glutathione and NAD+ — to your skin and health profile, not three disconnected products. After your intake, a clinician reviews your profile, typically within 24 hours, and screens for cautions like copper allergy before prescribing.
Yes — the Glow protocol is FSA/HSA eligible; pay with your HSA/FSA card at checkout and email support@chia.health if your administrator needs documentation. You can cancel anytime through your patient portal. Before your consultation, before your first shipment, or if you're found ineligible, you get a full refund; month-to-month plans include a 30-day money-back refund on unused monthly plans.
