SH-POLYPEPTIDE-72

Description

SH-POLYPEPTIDE-72 is a revolutionary biomimetic peptide designed to target multiple aspects of hair growth and scalp health. This synthetic peptide is engineered to mimic the natural signaling molecules involved in hair follicle stimulation and maintenance. Its unique structure allows it to penetrate the scalp effectively, reaching the dermal papilla cells where it exerts its primary effects.

The peptide works by activating specific pathways that promote hair follicle regeneration and prolong the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle. It stimulates the production of essential proteins and growth factors, including keratin and collagen, which are crucial for hair strength and elasticity. Additionally, SH-POLYPEPTIDE-72 has been shown to improve blood circulation in the scalp, enhancing nutrient delivery to hair follicles.

Clinical studies have demonstrated that regular use of products containing SH-POLYPEPTIDE-72 can lead to increased hair density, thickness, and overall hair quality. It is particularly effective in addressing age-related hair thinning and loss. The peptide is well-tolerated by most individuals and can be incorporated into various hair care formulations, including serums, leave-in treatments, and scalp masks.
