Clinical Trials: Evidence Behind Our Ingredients
Our hair growth oil is powered by ingredients that are supported by robust clinical trials. Below, we present visual evidence from the clinical studies that demonstrate the effectiveness of each of our key ingredients.
Rosemary Oil
- Study: Rosemary Oil vs. Minoxidil for Androgenetic Alopecia
- Clinical Evidence: The images below from the clinical trial illustrate the significant hair regrowth seen after six months of treatment with rosemary oil compared to 2% minoxidil.
Pumpkin Seed Oil
- Study: Pumpkin Seed Oil for Hair Growth in Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
- Clinical Evidence: This trial demonstrates a 40% increase in hair count after 24 weeks of pumpkin seed oil supplementation. The side-by-side images show the before and after effects of treatment.
Peppermint Oil
- Study: Peppermint Oil Promotes Hair Growth Without Toxic Signs
- Clinical Evidence: The images from this study reveal the increased hair count after applying peppermint oil over four weeks on mice, compared to control treatments.
Saw Palmetto
- Study: Saw Palmetto’s Role in Inhibiting DHT for Hair Loss
- Clinical Evidence: These images showcase the trial results, where participants using saw palmetto experienced significant hair regrowth over a 25-week period.
Caffeine
- Study: Caffeine has demonstrated strong potential in promoting hair growth by counteracting the suppression caused by testosterone in hair follicles. The study found that caffeine increases hair shaft elongation, promotes proliferation of hair matrix keratinocytes, and enhances insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) expression, while simultaneously reducing the levels of transforming growth factor β2 (TGF-β2), a key inhibitor of hair growth. Notably, caffeine showed higher effectiveness in female hair follicles compared to male follicles, underscoring its universal applicability in both men and women for hair growth promotion.
- Clinical Evidence: A detailed study using human hair follicles in an in vitro model demonstrated that caffeine significantly enhanced hair shaft elongation and matrix keratinocyte proliferation, even in the presence of testosterone, which typically suppresses these processes. The study further revealed that caffeine reduced TGF-β2 expression, which inhibits hair growth, while boosting IGF-1, a growth-promoting factor. The following images from the study illustrate these findings, highlighting caffeine’s efficacy in both male and female hair follicles.
Lavender Oil
- Study: Lavender oil has shown significant hair growth-promoting effects through both morphological and histological observations. In a study involving female C57BL/6 mice, lavender oil increased hair follicle number, depth, and dermal thickness. The active compounds in lavender oil, such as linalyl acetate and linalool, promote the anagen (growth) phase of hair follicles, making it an effective natural remedy for hair loss. Additionally, lavender oil demonstrated a reduction in mast cell numbers, which is associated with delaying the transition from the growth phase to the resting phase of hair follicles.
- Clinical Evidence: A study on the hair growth-promoting effects of lavender oil revealed that after 4 weeks of topical application, the lavender oil-treated groups (3% and 5% concentrations) exhibited up to 95% hair growth, comparable to the effects of 3% minoxidil. The study also demonstrated increased hair follicle depth and dermal thickness, with a significant reduction in the number of mast cells, which contribute to hair loss. The images below illustrate these findings, showcasing lavender oil’s powerful impact on hair regrowth.
