Already after 3 months of regular use, clinical studies have shown a significant reduction in hereditary hair loss.
For a successful treatment of hereditary hair loss, it's essential to apply Caffeine DMG to the scalp daily. Important: Do not rinse out the serum.
Unlike medicinal products, no undesirable side effects are to be expected with regular use. None were found in studies or reported by consumers so far.
No, what's important is the daily dose of Caffeine DMG. The serum is ideal for days when you don't wash your hair or when you use a shampoo without the active ingredient DMG.
As a scientifically oriented company, Dr. Wolff places the highest value on sound research and evidence-based statements. We are currently a pioneer in the field of topical application of N,N-dimethylglycine (DMG). To generate valid and objective data, we rely on a high-quality study design. Our investigations – for example into the Alpecin Caffeine-DMG products – were therefore conducted in a placebo-controlled, randomised, and double-blind manner. A brief explanation of these terms:
Hair loss* is effectively reduced.
In areas affected by hair loss, this is reduced to below 40 %.
This is where DMG comes in:
Its mode of action, comparable to Minoxidil, ensures improved micro-blood-circulation and the hair roots are once again supplied with nutrients.
In collaboration with the Fraunhofer Institute, Dr. Wolff Research has now taken a systemic approach to hair loss* and conducted a comprehensive analysis of the human scalp.
Whereas previous studies examined areas with only around 300 hairs, our new method, which evaluates more than 10,000 hairs per head, provides precise results:
The combination of caffeine and DMG can effectively reduce hair loss*. And in some cases, new hair growth** was even observed.
Double-blind, randomised, and placebo-controlled study:
The clinical study was conducted on 154 men with hereditary hair loss. These men used either the new Caffeine DMG Serum (verum) or a placebo serum over a period of 6 months.
The analysis of the study subgroup showed a significant increase in hair growth**:
* hereditary hair loss
** in vivo study, subgroup analysis, placebo-controlled, n=30 participants with hereditary hair loss
Our bundle consists of 2x shampoo and 1x serum and is the perfect combination to ensure your daily dose of Caffeine DMG.
No time to wash your hair? Use our serum on no-wash days.

Caffeine has been known for over 20 years for its growth-stimulating effect on hair roots. It inhibits the breakdown of the intracellular messenger cAMP. As a result, more energy is available to the cells and cell growth is stimulated.
Caffeine is thus the most researched active ingredient of plant origin against hereditary hair loss.
Individually, caffeine and DMG are already highly potent active ingredients. In Alpecin's unique, patented active complex, they are now even more powerful.
The result: Hereditary hair loss is now effectively reduced and hair growth** can be increased.
