learn Follistatin

Can follistatin be applied to the skin, and does any form of it treat hair loss? No study shows that follistatin applied to the skin works, and no form of follistatin is an approved or proven hair-loss treatment. Follistatin injections, "research peptides" and gene therapies sold outside regulated trials are unapproved and of unknown safety.

learn Hyaluronic Acid

Does hyaluronic acid really hydrate the scalp, or is it mainly for skin care? Hyaluronic acid improved hydration of facial skin in trials. It has not been tested on the scalp.

learn Osteopontin

What does osteopontin do in skin healing and inflammation? Osteopontin takes part in wound repair in mouse skin; its role in human scalp healing and inflammation has not been studied.

learn Scalp Micropigmentation
