AN UPDATED ETIOLOGY OF HAIR LOSS AND THE NEW COSMECEUTICAL PARADIGM IN THERAPY: CLEARING ‘THE BIG EIGHT STRIKES’

When REVIVV topical hair serum was designed, several scientific principles were utilized to create a ‘multimodal’ composition that caters to the various disorders of the scalp skin. This is because hair loss is very complex, and one approach (target) is not enough to support healthy hair growth. We identified eight problems of the scalp that need to be corrected (targeted), to nurture healthy hair growth. Our scientific team calls them ‘the big 8 strikes’ against hair health. Each ingredient in REVIVV was carefully chosen to correct each of the eight strikes.

When we realized that this technology, and this understanding of how to correctly design a hair health serum, was not widely known about in the scientific community, we decided to share this knowledge to fill the gap. Our altruistic intentions are not only about helping others to understand why their hair is losing the fight, but we also wanted to explain in detail how our composition works.

Thus, the new etiology of hair loss was published in a journal called Cosmetics, explaining that hormones are not the only cause of hair loss. There is a myriad of factors that include nutrition, problems with circulation, overgrowth of microbes, problems with the burning of energy stores and sugar, excessive oil production, inflammation and of course, micro-scar tissue formation.

It is amazing that all these challenges to hair health can be met with a simple topical serum, yet our earlier clinical study has proven that the scientific approach we have used really works. We also examined other serums that are available on the market, to see if any of them also cater to the big eight strikes. We didn’t find many, and those that do may not have enough specific active ingredients to fully erase each strike.
