What's in Our Hair Formulas

Most hair loss in men, and much of it in women, is driven by DHT, a hormone made from testosterone that shrinks hair follicles over time. Our formulas combine ingredients that work on that process in different ways.

Finasteride
Blocks the enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT, which lowers DHT in the scalp.
Dutasteride
Two enzymes make DHT. Finasteride blocks one of them and dutasteride blocks both, so it is studied as the stronger option for people who have not responded to finasteride.
Minoxidil
Widens blood vessels and is studied for extending the growth phase of the hair cycle, so more follicles are actively producing hair at any one time.
Biotin, D3 and K2
Included in every oral formula to support the building blocks of healthy hair.

Finasteride and dutasteride are not for women who are pregnant or may become pregnant. Your provider reviews your history before prescribing.

What Is GHK-Cu?

GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper peptide that declines with age. It is studied for its role in collagen and elastin production, skin firmness and hair density.

How It Works
GHK-Cu works as a signaling molecule. In research it has been shown to switch on genes involved in collagen and elastin production. Copper is part of the mechanism: the enzyme that cross-links new collagen fibers depends on it.
Injection or Tablet
Delivers GHK-Cu through the whole body, reaching skin and hair follicles from within. The tablet is the needle-free daily option.
Cream
Acts where it is applied, most often the face, neck and backs of the hands. Compounded at prescription strength.

Combine topical treatment with oral or injectable options to maximize visible skin repair.
