The Release of New and Improved Revivogen Formula

The Release of New and Improved Revivogen Formula

Revivogen, which contains the most potent natural inhibitors of type 1 and 2 5-alpha reductase, is now formulated with Procyanidin Oligomers for increased hair growth stimulation as well as active ingredients of saw palmetto extract for improved androgen receptor blocking. Other enhancements include refinement of fatty acids and addition of a liposomal delivery system.

Procyanidin Oligomers (also known as Proanthocyanidin) are naturally derived ingredients that have shown to stimulate hair growth similarly to Minoxidil (Rogaine®). Recent studies by Japanese scientists have shown that Procyanidin Oligomers possess growth stimulation activity toward hair epithelial cells in vitro and stimulate anagen induction in hair follicles in vivo. Addition of Procyanidin Oligomers to Revivogen is intended to increase the hair growth stimulation properties of the formula.

Saw Palmetto extract has shown to inhibit both 5-alpha reductase and androgen receptors. The ability of Saw Palmetto to inhibit the androgen receptors is due to specific ingredients found in trace amounts in an average extract. Now Revivogen contains a higher concentration of these active ingredients including beta-sitosterol to enhance the androgen blocking properties of the formula.

The new fatty acid source for Revivogen formula has been changed to only include GLA, ALA, Linoleic acid, and Oleic acid. These are the most potent inhibitors of 5-alpha reductase with GLA, ALA, and Oleic acids also having potent anti-inflammatory properties.

Addition of liposomal delivery system is another enhancement of Revivogen formula. Liposomes are microscopic lipid packets that are used for delivery of many medications and are commonly used by the pharmaceutical companies in topical preparations. Adding liposomal delivery system further enhances the absorption of the active ingredients into the skin and aids in their delivery to the hair follicle where they can exert their effects.

Advanced Skin and Hair, LLC is committed to provide the most effective and potent natural products based on the latest scientific knowledge and proven ingredients. We will strive to make Revivogen better and utilize the latest findings as they become available.
