    TLDR Combining light therapy with certain substances improves hair growth in people with hair loss.
    The study explores the combined effects of low-level light therapy (LLLT) and active substances (arginine, arterial extract, and biotin tripeptide-1) on hair growth for androgenic alopecia (AGA). The combination, called CARRIPOWER, improves mitochondrial function, cell proliferation, and collagen synthesis in fibroblasts, while reducing inflammatory cytokines and pro-apoptotic factors in dermal papilla cells. It also inhibits the Wnt pathway and boosts hair growth factors, showing potential in preventing hair loss and promoting hair growth by targeting both hormonal and cellular factors involved in AGA.
