Hair Loss News and Press Releases

New! NJH Laser Expo featuring Dr. Alex Khadavi, M.D. demonstrating the causes of hair loss and the role of Revivogen in reducing and stopping hair loss:

The first-ever laser workshop for hair-loss professionals took place in San Diego in April. Top medical experts, laser researchers and hair-loss specialists flew in to share their expertise with 40 privileged guests.

Hosted by The National Hair Society, the purpose of this two-day event was to give participants a solid understanding of low-level laser light therapy, its history, benefits and commercial applications.

The laser workshop was privileged to have dermatologist Alex Khadavi, MD, a faculty member of the University of Southern California and creator of the Revivogen product line, explain the benefits of low-level laser light therapy in conjunction with topical or oral hair regrowth medications.

His company has conducted numerous studies not only on the effectiveness of Revivogen in halting hair loss, but the benefits of combining Revivogen with light therapy as well. He presented detailed findings explaining the process of hair miniaturization and the role of Revivogen and laser therapy in arresting, and even reversing, this process. (read more)

Advanced Skin and Hair, Inc. announces new improvements to the Revivogen natural anti-DHT formula for hair loss and thinning hair.

Feb. 26, 2007
Los Angeles, CA, USA

In keeping with our commitment to provide the most powerful products for androgenic alopecia using scientifically proven natural ingredients, Advanced Skin and Hair, Inc. announces the addition of two new powerful anti-DHT ingredients to the Revivogen formula. According to a study published in Biochemistry and Pharmacology Journal, among multiple natural ingredients that have the potential to inhibit 5-alpha-reductase activity, octyl gallate and dodecyl gallate have the greatest inhibition of 5-alpha-reductase activity in both cell-free and whole cell assays in vitro. The significance of this finding is that octyl gallate and dodecyl gallate not only inhibit both forms of 5-alpha-reductase enzyme (type I and type II), but more importantly, they can penetrate the cell membrane and inhibit the enzyme while the cells are in culture. Since 95% of DHT is produced inside the cell, the ability of these ingredients to enter intact living cells is vital for effective inhibition of 5-alpha-reductase enzyme and reducing DHT production.

After further investigation and testing, octyl gallate and dodecyl gallate were proven to be safe, effective and enhance the results of the previous Revivogen formula. These newly added ingredients make Revivogen the only product that contains the most powerful and scientifically proven natural anti-DHT ingredients. In addition, Revivogen contains other natural ingredients proven to block the androgen receptors and stimulate the hair follicle’s growth, providing a comprehensive natural solution for those suffering from hair loss.

The new formula has been available and shipped to all customers and vendors since September 2006. However, the new changes are not reflected in the product packaging as of yet.

Revivogen was formulated by board-certified dermatologist Alex Khadavi, MD. Clearogen, another product developed by Dr. Khadavi for treatment of hormonal acne, contains the same natural anti-DHT ingredients.

As many of you know, the hair-loss industry is littered with snake oils claiming not only to prevent further hair loss, but to regrow hair as well. The majority of these non-FDA approved products are completely unsubstantiated as far as their claims are concerned.

The Revivogen hair loss treatment system is the only non-FDA approved treatment marketed for hair loss that is approved by The Bald Truth. The ingredients in Revivogen have been clinically proven to block both type I and type II 5-alpha-reductase, which is known by the mainstream medical community to cause the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone. DHT is currently thought to be the main culprit in male pattern baldness. We at The Bald Truth believe that Revivogen has the potential to meet its claims. Revivogen can be used either as a standalone treatment or as an adjunct to the FDA-approved products recommended by The Bald Truth.
