Effects of a Postbiotic Saccharomyces and Lactobacillus Ferment Complex on the Scalp Microbiome of Chinese Women with Sensitive Scalp Syndrome

This study observed that in young women, the scalp microbiota is influenced by sebum level, barrier sensitivity, and lifestyle factors, with barrier sensitivity emerging as a key factor, offering insights for further research into scalp health and conditions.

This study found that oral probiotic supplementation over 12 weeks may improve hair growth, skin condition, metabolic health, and stress responses in Chinese adults with hair loss and a high risk of metabolic syndrome.

This study found that dandruff-afflicted individuals had a less integrated microbial network on the scalp and hair surface compared to healthy individuals, with more positive interactions and unstable connections.

The scalp serum reduced scalp discomfort and symptoms without affecting skin moisture loss.

This systematic review reported that probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, postbiotics, and dietary supplements may improve hair density and reduce dandruff severity in individuals with scalp disorders, potentially by modifying inflammation, oxidative stress, and microbiota composition; however, variability across studies limits the strength of these conclusions.
