- LIPOSOMAL PEPTIDES - Myristoyl pentapeptide-17 increases keratin synthesis for a significantly thicker hair fibre. Myristoyl pentapeptide-17, a liposomal peptide, is an engineered peptide reacted with lipids (fats) to introduce peptides into living keratin cells. The peptides (myristoyl pentapeptide-17) combined with the liposomes are engineered to be identical to peptides produced in the follicle that instruct cells to produce more keratin. Myristoyl pentapeptide-17 can directly stimulate the increased synthesis of keratin within keratin cells without requiring biological growth factors.Liposomal proteins are identical copies of biological proteins, making them safer and significantly more effective than other hair-thickening agents. They can specifically and selectively stimulate keratin production within the cell, increasing the size and weight of the keratin cell by 60-100%.
- PHYTOESTROGENS - Estrogenic substances mimic estrogen to encourage the growth of longer, stronger hair. Red clover is a dark pink herbaceous flowering plant that contains coumestrol, a potent phytoestrogen and antioxidant. Due to its low molecular weight, coumestrol can pass through cell membranes and mimic the biological activities of estrogen whilst reducing the activity of reactive oxidative species. Coumestrol has a similar binding affinity to estradiol to estrogen receptors, though the effect of coumestrol binding is lower than estradiol. As an anti-oxidising agent, coumestrol can reduce inflammation and encourage the repair of the hair follicle niche
- CAFFEINE - Caffeine (1,3,7-trimethylxanthine) is a plant alkaloid useful as a therapeutic agent for hair loss prevention. Caffeine is fat and water-soluble, easily added to preparations and absorbed through nearly all membranes. When applied to the scalp, caffeine prolongs hair growth duration. The growth-stimulating effect is due to its influence on growth factors that act on the hair follicle and its natural blood vessel dilating action. One study that looked at effective concentrations on the hair follicle showed that very low concentrations of caffeine could increase the length of the hair shaft in less than 24 hours. The success of caffeine preparations in reducing hair loss and encouraging hair growth is thought to be based on its ability to work simultaneously on two key growth-regulatory factors.
