    TLDR Rosa multiflora root extract promotes hair growth and prevents hair loss.
    This study evaluated the hair growth promotion effects of a herbal product containing Rosa multiflora roots extracts (RMHP) through animal experiments and clinical trials. In the animal study, RMHP significantly stimulated hair growth in male C57BL/6 mice compared to the negative control. In the clinical trial with 37 patients, hair density and thickness significantly increased after 16 weeks of RMHP application. Hair density rose from 104.3 ± 4.7 FU/㎠ to 125.0 ± 4.9 FU/㎠, and hair thickness increased from 0.055 ± 0.002 ㎜ to 0.066 ± 0.003 ㎜. Clinical symptoms also showed significant improvement. The study concluded that RMHP effectively promoted hair growth and prevented hair loss.
