Advanced Skin and Hair, Inc. announces new improvements to Revivogen natural Anti-DHT formula for hair loss and thinning hair.
Feb 2007

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 for inhibition of 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 not only Octyl Gallate and Dodecyl Gallate 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) existing 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 receptor 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. The new changes are not reflected in the product packaging yet.

I forget, is Revivogen the shampoo that comes in a black bottle with the emblem of hairs growing ever thicker? If it is, I used it in the past, years ago when I first noticed that I was losing hair. I don't think/know that it helped any, but I liked the way it made my scalpt "feel"... sort of tingled and... I don't know how to explain it. Interesting stuff. But not sure if it helps any. Interesting info about the new ingredient, though. I guess all the companies that have some sort of investment in the hairloss fight are trying something different - Rogaine's new foam (which I don't think the scalp will absorbe as well as the solution?), and now this.

No, that is Vivogen, a shampoo made by Redken, it has no hair growing properties.

Revivogen is a regimen similar to Avocor except that it is widely agreed that Revivogen's ingredients has more efficacy.

Anyone else find it odd they're adding these "anti-dht" ingredients after saying this some time back?:

Dr. Khadavi: From researching and testing other ingredients that could potentially be used in Revivogen, we are currently not adding any new ingredients. This is due to the fact that maximal inhibition of DHT has been achieved with the active ingredients of Revivogen since the active ingredients that are being used in the current Revivogen formula are the most potent of all the ingredients available to us that are natural.

I mean..out of all the possible things they could add......?

I like the shampoo. Revivogen is a product you want to work, but it didnt help me. Even if it did work its to expensive for the amount of evidence it actually has.
