Redensyl
Redensyl is a commercial product with some potential role in treating hair loss, particularly androgenetic alopecia. It is a blend of several components, including Camellia sinensis extract, Larix europaea (larch) extract, water, glycerol as a humectant, glycine, sodium metabisulfite, and zinc chloride. Central to its action are Dihydroquercetin Glucoside (DHQG) from larch extract and Epigallocatechin Gallate Glucoside (EGCG2) from green tea (Camellia sinensis) extract, with the latter known for its anti-inflammatory effects by reducing IL-8 release from keratinocytes. Redensyl claims to stimulate hair growth by activating stem cells and fibroblasts in the dermal papilla.
Research into Redensyl's effectiveness in promoting hair growth has included comparative studies. For example, a study comparing the effects of a treatment regimen that includes Redensyl, saw palmetto, and biotin with platelet-rich plasma against a regimen with Procapil and platelet-rich plasma showed promising results for Redensyl in treating androgenetic alopecia, suggesting an enhanced hair growth effect.
The community's discussions about Redensyl cover a range of experiences. Some users report improvements in hair density and scalp health after using Redensyl-containing products, while others say they've seen no changes and highlight the need for real evidence to substantiate its efficacy conclusively.
While preliminary research and user reports suggest potential benefits, comprehensive clinical evidence is required to fully ascertain its role in hair loss treatment protocols.
