Plant base Propecia


Biostim is Propecia but without the side-effects.


The most common form of hair loss is genetic. Androgenetic alopecia occurs in approximately 60% of men and 10% of women in the U.K. However, if you are a sufferer you do not have to simply live with it as your parents and grandparents may have had to. You can take an active step today and discover Biostim, the new, highly effective hair loss stabiliser and hair regrowth stimulant available directly from our laboratories.


Genetic Hair Loss


In men, androgenetic alopecia has a characteristic pattern of hair loss it begins with a slight recession at the front hairline and is followed by thinning on the crown of the head.


In women, androgenetic alopecia is often linked to hormonal changes with the hair loss following events such as the menopause, childbirth or as a result of stopping or starting oral contraceptive pills. The hair loss is also generally more uniform over the scalp than in the male counterpart.


In both sexes, the hair loss results from a complex chemical reaction when the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase converts the testosterone in the system into DHT or dihydrotestosterone. The hair follicles are genetically predisposed to be oversensitive to the DHT and become smaller and smaller with time, leading to the eventual hair loss.


How does Biostim work?


Biostim is composed of a variety of different ingredients all of which either directly or indirectly benefit hair loss stabilisation and some of which stimulate hair growth. The 11 most important ingredients are as follows:


Contents


Sabal Serrulata Extract (Biogen)


Mono Propylene Glycol


Ceramide


Panthenol


Calcium Panthothenate (Vitamin B3)


Vitamin E


Vitamin A


Vitamin H (Biotin)


Vitamin H (P.A.B.A.)


Inositol (Vitamin B8)


Aqua


Description


A combination of naturally occurring 5-reductase inhibitors with added multivitamin complex for the stimulation of hair follicles suppressed by the action of Androgens in cases of androgenic alopecia.


Mode of Action


5-reductase inhibitors act as anti-androgens, reducing the levels of di-hydroxy testosterone (DHT), decreasing the levels of androgen activity at the target site. The consequent reduced levels of DHT stabilise or reduce the level of atrophy of the hair follicle and shaft in the genetically determined areas in the treatment of androgenic alopecia. The hair growth period (anagen) is prolonged and promotes increased hair growth and density.


Clinical Trials


Clinical trials of the natural ingredients have established anti-androgen activity and the ability to suppress di-hydroxy testosterone (DHT) formation, beneficial in cases of androgenic alopecia. The increased dermal papilla activity increases hair cell production and proliferation, increases the number of hairs in the anagen phase and increases the A/T (anagen/telogen ration).


Biostim has been shown to be a strong inhibitor of 5-alpha reductase in the dermal papilla and to increase hair cell proliferation, particularly on hairs suppressed by androgenic activity. It is believed that the effect of the Biostim is to interfere with the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone and so there follows a positive response. Biostim is also a good natural source of oestrogen, this may also aid the

Grow Longer Hair: Pro Tips (and a Promising New Line) Help Promote Hair Growth

Van Clarke pointed out the effect of this aging process: If you were to weigh one inch of end hair it would weigh less than one inch of the same hair at the root.

“Hair grows half an inch per month,” he explained. “This rate is surprisingly consistent across ages and cultures. Many people struggle to grow their hair and think it stops growing. Usually the hair is aging too quickly, so while it is still growing at the root, it is disintegrating at the ends and not getting any longer.”

3MI joins a growing force of hair products focused on anti-aging haircare. Recent launches in this new category include Finesse Revitality and Redken Time Reset, along with Age Premium Densitive Dietary Supplements from Kérastase.

Priced from $20 to $35 each, the 3MI products don’t actually make the hair grow faster, but they claim to keep hair at its root quality. Meaning, unless you have an unhealthy diet and lifestyle, the hair at its roots is the best quality you’re going to have, so maintaining this texture and thickness is the goal.

“The 3MI products contain select conditioning agents, proteins and amino acids from cashmere,” Van Clarke added. “These are virtually identical to the structure of human hair and are able to penetrate deeper and fill in the gaps in the hair structure. This helps maintain correct moisture balance, keeping hair more supple. The hair stays thicker for longer in a natural way.”

In addition to his haircare system, Van Clarke’s shared his top ten tips for growing longer, healthier hair:
