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.

No one understands the power of Caffeine like we do. With patented technology and years of research, Dr. Wolff has perfected a Galenic formulation that unlocks Caffeine’s potency. Your benefits of our complex:

  • Caffeine energizes hair
  • Zinc nourishes weakened strands
  • Niacin improves the look and feel of hair

Recharge your hair daily with Alpecin Caffeine to maintain a full and strong appearance

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.

Effectiveness depends on individual metabolism. 74% of study participants noticed thicker, denser, and fuller-looking hair after 6 months of use.

FAQ: Answers to Your Questions

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

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

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.

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.

The Alpecin Caffeine DMG Shampoo is suitable for all hair lengths. Depending on the hair length, additional hair care should be applied.
