Mibelle’s AnaGain ingredient was the winner of the Advanced Ingredient Award 2014 at Beyond Beauty in Paris. The award was given for the first time to the most innovative hair care ingredient of the year at the Beyond Beauty Lab.
AnaGain is an ingredient designed for hair care products to successfully fight hair loss and stimulate hair growth. It is based on organic pea sprouts and has proven to clearly reactivate hair growth by directly targeting the dermal papilla cells that are key to the hair growth cycle. Thanks to its double action, AnaGain successfully boosts the expression of the noggin gene, which results in a shorter resting period – telogen phase, and it also enhances the expression of the fibroblast growth factor-7 gene. This in turn stimulates the proliferation of hair germ cells to grow hair.
In a clinical study AnaGain increased the hair growth coefficient (proportion of active hair follicles to degenerating ones) from 4 to 7.2 indicating a strong hair re-growing effect. AnaGain is thus a clinically proven solution ensuring fuller and thicker hair.
