Tonic is composed of several medicinal herbal extracts.
After applying Damo Tonic, IGF-1 and TGF-β, components of the endocrine system, were found to increase in the skin according to PCR measurements.
Troubles such as skin irritations or clinical problems were not found.
Animal tests showed the fast and vigorous hair growth.
The effect of promoting the growth of hair follicles and hair root was observed.
DAMO Tonic was evaluated as effective for hair growth by increasing the concentration of pro- endocrine IGF-1 and TGF-β.
IGF-1 is known to promote the elongation of the hair follicles and TGF-β is known to stimulate anagen-catagen transition in the hair follicles. TGF-β is known physiologically to stimulate the growth of hair and increase the anagen in the hair cycle.
According to the published paper, DAMO Tonic activates hair follicles back to anagen by accelerating follicle growth s and shortens
hair re-growth time, and increases endocrines for hair growth. As a result, DAMO Tonic is effective in treating hair loss patients.
