If you haven't listened to the copper peptides episode yet — go back and start there. This mini episode builds directly on it, and it'll make a lot more sense with that context.This week we're zooming in on one specific molecule involved in how copper peptides actually repair the skin: decorin. It doesn't get nearly enough airtime in the skincare conversation, and for acne-prone skin especially, it's a pretty big deal.📌 What we cover:What decorin actually is Why just stimulating collagen isn't enoughWhat happens during prolonged inflammation like acne?Why cystic acne scars more severely How decorin changes with age — and why this is part of the aging story almost nobody is talking aboutCan topical options that can actually influence decorin?🔗 Resources mentioned:🗂️ The Peptide Database — find products with Tripeptide-10 Citrulline (and GHK-Cu) at meaningful levels, without the marketing noise📚 Skincare Made Simple: The Course — build a routine that addresses all of this in the right order for your specific skin
