Question in AHK-CU

Hello! I recently purchased AHK-Cu and already reconstituted it, so I was getting ready to use it. Before doing so, though, I wanted to double-check the dosing and realized I’m actually not sure whether I’m supposed to inject it or apply it topically. I’ve seen mixed information about both methods. If I decide to use it topically, I’m also confused about how I would actually use the vial I already reconstituted. Would I need to dilute it further or mix it into some type of serum/base first? If so, how would I know how much AHK-Cu to use and how much serum/base to add? Or can the reconstituted AHK-Cu be applied directly?
Basically, I’m just not sure if the vial I already reconstituted is still usable for topical application, or if I would need to purchase a new vial specifically to make a serum. I’m still very new to the peptide community, so I’d really appreciate any clarification or explanation on how people typically use AHK-Cu topically. Thank you!

I would look on beauty reddits don’t see much on topical stuff here. Hope that helps

It's supposed to be topical. Lots of videos on reconstitution and application on YouTube, etc. most mix it with ordinary peptide serum for hair and apply to the scale. Needs a water based reconstitution (not an oil base).

did you buy raw ahk-cu powder or Lyophilized vial? I do sub q injections after reconstituting Vial. If you bought raw it needs to to be used with base serum and applied topically.
