INSIGHT

Scalp As Its Own Skin Ecosystem

  • The scalp is a distinct, thicker skin ecosystem with dense follicles, microbiome, sebum, and rich vasculature.
  • These components jointly regulate hair growth, inflammation, and barrier function.
ADVICE

Catch Scalp Inflammation Early

  • Watch for early signs: itching, dryness, flaking, tenderness, and increased shedding as inflammation rises.
  • Address micro-inflammation early to prevent slowed growth and clinical scalp inflammation.
INSIGHT

Biologics Can Reprogram Follicle Environment

  • Peptides and growth factors can penetrate follicles and act on dermal papilla to change the follicle environment.
  • They enable a preventive, not just reactive, approach to scalp health.
