Tripeptide complexes deliver hair growth benefits

Male pattern baldness affects a vast number of people and can significantly impact self-esteem. Here we look at solutions from South Korea.

Hair represents a very important aspect of a person’s identity and therefore consumers will always be looking for products that enable them to maintain healthy hair and project the best possible version of themselves. The hair is one of the first features noticed when meeting someone, and can convey an enormous amount of unspoken information about their age, health, wealth, character, interests and beyond. Hair thinning is a process that impacts men and women all over the world for a wide variety of reasons, but can deeply affect an individual’s self-esteem and social confidence. As a result, there is even more consumer demand for hair treatments that offer the ability to either halt or reverse the hair thinning process without needing to resort to costly, painful, and potentially unsuccessful surgical procedures. Due to the range of causes behind hair loss, a complex of active ingredients, each performing a different role, increases the chance of delivering visible results.

Two topically applicable new tripeptide complexes, Hairin I&II, available from Equipforskin & SupadElixir show promising in vitro results as topical hair care cosmetic ingredients.
