Scientific name: Growth Factors
Classification: Protein
Follicle growth stimulators.
Tales from Nature
Growth Factors are naturally present in the human placenta and are responsible for promoting follicle growth, the formation of venous and arterial capillaries, the growth of the dermal papilla, and the differentiation of follicular matrix cells that will later make up the hair shaft. With birth and advancing age, these factors are lacking, thus leading to aging of the matrix cells and hair bulb.
Benefits
Growth Factors (including: SH-polypeptide-1, SH-polypeptide-11, SH-oligopeptide-2, SH-Oligopeptide-10, SH-polypeptide-9) derived from Bacterial Biofermentation stimulate the natural expression of genes involved in promoting:
- follicular growth
- formation of venous and arterial capillaries
- growth of the dermal papilla
- differentiation of matrix cells (which then
will compose the hair shaft)
