Dimethylglycine (DMG)

Focus on the blue liquid inside a flask as a symbol for how the ingredient dimethylglycine (DMG) works on hair and scalp

A performance-enhancing ingredient from professional sports is now entering the spotlight in hair research: Dimethylglycine (DMG).

For the first time, DMG has been scientifically studied in the field of hair research using an innovative measurement method. The initial findings reveal promising effects.

Measurement Method: First-time evaluation of more than 10,000 individual hairs

Focus on a screen showing a close-up of hair to highlight that Dr. Wolff, together with the Fraunhofer Institute, has developed a new method to analyse hereditary hair loss in men.

In collaboration with the Fraunhofer Institute, Dr. Wolff Research has now conducted a comprehensive analysis of the human scalp.

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 promotes natural hair growth.

FAQ: Answers to Your Questions

You can easily combine the Caffeine DMG Shampoo and the Caffeine DMG Serum, but it's not absolutely necessary to use both products at the same time.

What's crucial is that your hair and scalp receive a daily dose of DMG + Caffeine.

We recommend using the shampoo on days when you wash your hair and the serum on days when you don't.

After 3 months of regular use, hair already gets visibly thicker and fuller.

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, randomized, and double-blind manner. A brief explanation of these terms:

  • Placebo-controlled: One group receives the active ingredient formulation, another receives a placebo. This allows the actual effectiveness to be assessed objectively.
  • Randomized: Allocation to the groups is made at random in order to avoid systematic bias.
  • Double-blind: Neither the study participants nor the technical staff know who is receiving which treatment, ensuring unbiased results.

For a successful hair growth routine, consistent daily use for 2 minutes a day is required.

For best results 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.
