Scientific name: SH-Polypeptide-1, SH-Polypeptide-11, SH-Oligopeptide-2, SH-Oligopeptide-10, SH-Polypeptide-9
Classification: Biotechnologically derived peptides with biomimetic action
Revitalizing, protective, and supportive of follicular vitality.
Stories from Nature
Growth factors are proteins and peptides naturally involved in cellular communication, development, and tissue regeneration. They also play an important role in hair follicle physiology, participating in the regulation of follicular growth, capillary formation, dermal papilla activity, and the differentiation of matrix cells, from which hair develops.
As we age, the mechanisms governing follicular regulation and renewal can change, contributing to hair aging phenomena such as progressive thinning and loss of hair vitality. Biotechnology research has led to the development of biomimetic peptides produced through microbial fermentation processes, inspired by molecules naturally present in the body and valued in advanced cosmetic formulations.
Benefits
Biotechnologically derived growth factors, thanks to their biomimetic nature, are key ingredients in cosmetic treatments designed to promote scalp vitality and hair follicle health.
They are inspired by the biological mechanisms involved in follicular growth, dermal papilla activity, cell differentiation, and the maintenance of cutaneous microcirculation, helping to enhance revitalizing formulations.
Working in synergy with other functional active ingredients, they complement the action of cosmetic treatments designed to prevent hair loss and promote growth—specifically for fine, weak hair prone to signs of hair aging—by promoting the well-being of the Scalp and helping to keep hair looking stronger, fuller, and more vibrant.
