learn Tea tree

What is the difference between cosmetic and therapeutic uses of tea tree in hair and scalp products? Cosmetic uses enhance appearance, while therapeutic uses treat scalp conditions.

learn Tofacitinib

Why is tofacitinib considered a medical treatment rather than a cosmetic or preventative hair product? Tofacitinib is a prescription JAK inhibitor regulated as a drug, with an FDA boxed warning; its use for alopecia areata is off-label. Studies report regrowth while it is taken, which usually reverses after stopping, so it treats disease activity rather than acting as a cosmetic.

learn Valproic acid

What should users understand about the distinction between medical research and consumer hair products involving valproic acid? Valproic acid is a prescription anticonvulsant with a boxed warning for liver failure, pancreatitis and harm to an unborn baby, not a cosmetic ingredient. Its hair-growth evidence is laboratory work plus one small trial, and oral valproate itself can cause hair loss.
