Doping for your hair

Thanks to a special pharmaceutical carrier base (galenic formulation), the unique Caffeine Complex reaches the hair follicle in just 2 minutes. There, it exerts its positive effect:

Hereditary hair loss can be counteracted.

Caffeine stimulates the hair roots

Caffeine has been known for more than 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 therefore the most researched active ingredient of plant origin against hereditary hair loss.

  • Zinc and niacinamide: Zinc and niacinamide promote energy metabolism and can ensure better nutrient supply to the hair roots.

Recognizing hereditary hair loss

Signs of hereditary hair loss can include: 

  • Widening receding hairline
  • Increased hair in the sink
  • Thinning hair at the back of the head

What's behind it?

With hereditary hair loss, the hair growth cycle is disrupted. Various factors can limit nutrient supply and reduce the size of hair follicles.

The result: The hair roots wither and no longer produce new hair.

Caffeine stimulates the hair root

The Alpecin Caffeine Complex counteracts the shortening of growth phases by stimulating the hair roots and boosting the energy metabolism.

Effect scientifically proven

In over 20 years of caffeine research, the effectiveness of our formulations has been studied and proven in numerous studies.
