Tiny Hair Follicles and Balding: Strategies for Preventing Hair Loss
In the world of hair care, a new product is making waves – Kerascalp™. This innovative solution, derived from the amla (Phyllanthus Emblica) fruit, has shown promising results in both in vitro and in vivo studies.
Kerascalp™ has been confirmed to have a significant impact on hair colour, darkening hair and reversing the number and proportion of gray hairs. But its potential extends beyond colour, as it also shows promise for effective hair rejuvenation. It inhibits hair loss, improves overall hair health, and even reverses the process of hair follicle miniaturization.
Hair follicle miniaturization is a significant concern for many, as it refers to the process where healthy hair follicles become unable to produce strong hairs during the growth phase. This leads to weaker and less dense hairs and permanent hair loss. Scalp aging processes play a significant role in this miniaturization, and studies have linked these processes to a lack of collagen XVII, which can lead to hair follicle miniaturization and hair loss.
Kerascalp™ increases collagen by enhancing genetic expression (COL17A1) and stimulating collagen XVII synthesis. It is capable of activating and limiting the degradation of COL17A1, thereby reversing the effects of hair follicle miniaturization.
The active ingredient in Kerascalp™, Capixyl, directly targets scalp health to prevent hair follicle miniaturization. Capixyl prolongs the hair growth phase (Anagen) and reduces the resting phase (Telogen), maintaining active hair cycles and preventing premature shedding. It also reduces micro-inflammation and oxidative stress on hair follicles, factors that contribute to follicle miniaturization.
Moreover, Capixyl improves hair follicle anchorage significantly, making hair roots stronger and less susceptible to falling out. It rebalances scalp microbiota to foster a healthy environment for hair growth. Clinical studies have demonstrated that Capixyl boosts hair density by up to 46% after four months, accelerates hair formation by 50%, and reduces micro-inflammation by 48%.
In a healthy scalp, normal rates of hair follicles in the telogen phase range between 5 to 15%; an increase in these percentages can lead to excessive hair loss. By supporting a healthy scalp environment, Kerascalp™ helps prevent this excess shedding.
In summary, Kerascalp™ works by creating an optimal scalp environment, reducing inflammation and oxidative damage, and directly stimulating hair follicle stem cells to enhance growth and prevent follicle shrinkage that leads to hair loss. Its potential for effective hair rejuvenation, inhibiting hair loss, and improving overall hair health makes it a promising solution for those struggling with hair thinning and loss.

The innovative product Kerascalp™, with its active ingredient Capixyl, not only focuses on hair color but also explores the realm of health-and-wellness, specifically addressing hair rejuvenation. Capixyl, derived from the amla fruit, has shown potential in enhancing collagen production in the scalp, which is crucial for women's-health and maintaining skin-care. As aging is a significant aspect of life, Kerascalp™ targets the reversal of the aging process in hair follicles, thereby addressing both mens-health and women's-health concerns related to hair loss.
