Botanical DHT Support Technology
Inspired By Nature. Supported By Clinical Research.
Hair loss is influenced by multiple biological factors.
One of the most recognized contributors in androgenetic hair loss is DHT (Dihydrotestosterone), a hormone that can gradually affect susceptible hair follicles over time.
Saw Palmetto (Serenoa repens) is a botanical extract that has been extensively studied for its potential anti-androgenic properties and its ability to support healthier hair growth patterns.
Why Saw Palmetto Matters
Research suggests that Saw Palmetto may help reduce the activity of 5-alpha reductase, the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone into DHT.
It has also been shown to reduce DHT interaction with androgen receptors and influence additional pathways involved in hormonal regulation.
For individuals experiencing hereditary hair thinning, supporting a healthy DHT balance may help create a more favorable environment for hair follicle function.
Clinical Evidence
A 2020 systematic review evaluating multiple human studies involving topical and oral Saw Palmetto reported:
-
- Up to 27% improvement in total hair count
-
- Increased hair density in up to 83.3% of participants
-
- 60% improvement in overall hair quality
-
- Stabilization of hair loss progression in 52% of participants
-
- Positive outcomes in both men and women experiencing hair thinning
How It Works
More Than DHT Support
Emerging research suggests that Saw Palmetto may also provide:
Follicular Support
Supporting healthier hair growth cycles and follicular performance.
Scalp Environment Support
Research indicates anti-inflammatory activity that may contribute to a healthier scalp environment.
Hair Density Improvement
Clinical studies have reported improvements in density, thickness, and overall appearance of hair over time.
Why STEMIOLOGY™ Uses Saw Palmetto
Hair loss is rarely caused by a single factor.
While stem cell activation, follicular energy, and growth signaling are essential, addressing DHT-related stress remains an important component of a comprehensive hair support strategy.
Saw Palmetto was selected as part of the STEMIOLOGYTM multi-pathway approach because it complements advanced technologies such as REDENSYLTM, BAICAPILTM, PROCAPILTM, CAPIXYLTM, and ANAGAIN®.
Together, these ingredients support:
- Hair follicle vitality
- Hair density appearance
- Scalp health
- Healthier growth cycles
- Multi-pathway hair support
