Growth factors NANOGEN in the treatment of alopecia of various etiologies

Today, there are several ways to combat androgenetic alopecia. Main – this application of minoxidil 2-5%. A proven treatment for alopecia for both men and women, minoxidil is a potassium channel opener that stimulates hair growth. The result can be observed after 3-8 months of twice daily application of minoxidil.

Although the following side effects are possible:

• dry hair;
• dandruff;
• scalp irritation due to alcohol content; 
• initial increase in hair loss, 
• lowering blood pressure;
• overgrowth of "unwanted" hair (face, body). 

Therefore, long-term use of minoxidil is not possible.

English company NANOGEN presents a patented vascular endothelial growth factor. These are natural signals produced by the body to support hair growth. There are herbal extracts and synthetic chemicals that partially mimic Growth Factors, but neither have shown significant results in tests.

An important discovery of NANOGEN was the use of technology already known in modern regenerative medicine – activation of own growth factors. Patented NANOGEN growth factors are identical to natural ones. They are very effective, effective for both men and women, and do not cause side effects and allergic reactions.

Growth Factors NANOGEN – these are natural compounds capable of stimulating the growth, division and/or differentiation of living cells. Growth factors cytokines – they are signaling molecules that regulate cell interactions, determine survival, and stimulate and/or inhibit growth and differentiation. Thus, cytokines stimulate the division of all healthy cells, which contributes to the growth of healthy hair.

In order for a hair organ to form from the inactive cells of the hair papilla, three key processes must occur:

1. Cell proliferation (cell multiplication by division)

Firstly, the dermal papilla formed in the dermis forms and then changes direction outward towards the epidermis. Once formed, stem cells divide and differentiate into hair matrix cells.

2. Cell Migration

Cell proliferation without subsequent migration does not contribute to the formation of the hair shaft or any other organ. The hair shaft is a complex structure. The second pathway of Growth Factors is widely known, it activates the protein kinase B (PKV) gene to prevent destruction. This signal causes dermal vasodilation and membrane permeability to allow cell migration and intracellular communication via other cytokines.

3. Development of blood vessels

Without a doubt, the key to stimulating hair growth is sufficient oxygen and essential amino acids. Our body receives these components from the blood. Increased blood flow and blood vessel formation in hair follicles has been proven to improve and maintain hair growth, without this process everything stops.

Synthetic Human Growth Factor is not actually chemically synthesized, it is produced for NANOGEN using a unique plant expression system.

First, a human gene is cut off and extracted from a human cell. This DNA is synthetically copied. The copied purified DNA is placed in ordinary barley seeds. The plants are then grown hydroponically to provide ideal conditions and to prevent the modified genes from appearing and spreading to the environment. Then the barley is harvested and Growth Factors are isolated from it, which are later used in NANOGEN products.

Thus, we get a highly effective and completely safe product:

• absence of prion protein
• absence of cytotoxins
• no proteases

Therefore, NANOGEN growth factors are safe to use. The innovative hair care line fully complies with the protocol developed by NANOGEN scientists to create beautiful hair. Simple steps make it easy for busy people to create thick and shiny hair. Home care consists of just three steps on the way to beautiful hair:

1. Cleansing

Deep cleansing is essential not only for a great look, but also for optimal absorption of the nutrients from the conditioner and serum. Regular "proper" cleansing is also essential for maintaining a healthy scalp.

2. Meals

Conditioning is very important for the health of the hair, as well as for its shine and thickness. Fine hair requires special conditioners, as fine hair is more prone to oiliness and weight, making it look even thinner.

3. Stimulation

If you want to have healthy hair in the long term, as well as solve the problem of hair loss, whether it is androgenetic alopecia, hair restoration after pregnancy / lactation or any other etiology, then supporting hair health with the help of growth factors – this is the most effective solution that does not require surgery. The components that make up the serum, through stimulation, maintain the natural balance of growth signals, while protecting the follicles from damage, which ensures thick and healthy hair.
