learn Selenium

Is Selenium more effective when taken orally or applied topically in shampoos or serums? The two are not interchangeable and the evidence points the other way from the common assumption: topical selenium disulfide shampoo has clinical trial support for dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis, while oral selenium supplements have no reliable evidence for hair growth in people who are not deficient, and excess intake is a recognised cause of hair loss.

learn Baicapil

Could a daily serum with Baicapil help revive dormant hair follicles before it’s too late? Yes, a daily serum with Baicapil may help revive dormant hair follicles.

learn Bimatoprost

Can a lash-growth serum like bimatoprost actually work for your scalp? Bimatoprost (Latisse) is approved for eyelashes, not the scalp; two Allergan phase 2 trials in men with androgenetic alopecia posted results to ClinicalTrials.gov but were never published in a peer-reviewed journal, so scalp use remains off-label and experimental.

learn Hyaluronic Acid

What’s the difference between using hyaluronic acid as a serum on the scalp versus taking it as a supplement? Hyaluronic acid serum hydrates the scalp surface, while supplements may support overall hair health.

learn Exosomes

Are exosomes applied as a serum, an injection, or combined with other hair treatments? Exosomes are typically injected directly or combined with other hair treatments.
