Combining GHK-Cu and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 for skin aging?

I have been reading quite a lot lately about using GHK-Cu for skin health, but I am actually a bit skeptical about using it alone. I want to understand if it is better to combine it with something that targets inflammation.

I saw some information about /peptides/palmitoyl-tetrapeptide-7 and how it supposedly reduces IL-6 secretion. Since I am new to these topical peptides, the idea of inflammaging is quite interesting to me. It seems like GHK-Cu is more about the building part, whereas the Pal-Tetrapeptide-7 is more about stopping the degradation of collagen by reducing that inflammation.

Does anyone have experience with this kind of combination? Tbh, I am worried about using too many different things on my face at once and causing irritation. I am also curious if the Pal-Tetrapeptide-7 actually makes a noticeable difference in skin texture compared to just using a standard collagen stimulator. I would love to see any actual studies if anyone knows of them, since I prefer to see the data before I try anything new. I am mostly interested in long term skin firmness and preventing that loss of elasticity.
