Ecklonia Cava Promotes Hair Growth

    Soon Sun Bak, Byul‐Nim Ahn, J. A. Kim … S. K. Kim
    Studysummary This study suggests that Ecklonia cava, particularly its component dioxinodehydroeckol, may promote hair growth by enhancing dermal papilla and outer root sheath cell activity in culture and mice models.
