HAIRGENYL®
Rich in peptides from the yeast Pichia minuta, isolated from the flowers of azalea, HAIRGENYL® acts on three regulation mechanisms of hair regrowth: the mitochondrial dynamics, the expression of signaling molecules and the components of epigenetics. It thus supports the biological activity of the dermal papilla and stimulates growth of the hair follicle. Tested on volunteers, HAIRGENYL® boosts hair regrowth: the hair is thicker, more resistant and the scalp is more densely covered. HAIRGENYL® is recommended in all anti-loss and regrowth hair care products.
