Pharmaceutical company Reig Jofre launches Complidermol 5α PLUS, a dietary supplement offering a more comprehensive clinical approach to female androgenetic alopecia (FAA), which currently affects around 40% of women over 50.
Reig Jofre has over ten years’ experience in the treatment of female androgenetic alopecia and is market leader in Spain. Complidermol 5α PLUS results from combining two key strategic areas for Reig Jofre – dermatology and dietary supplements – where the company is widening its approach to healthcare through prevention.
Following an in-depth review of the scientific literature on this condition, experts have concluded that, in addition to the genetic and hormonal factors known and treated to date in FPB, there are also other factors which can be considered responsible for this condition, such as oxidative stress and micro-inflammation in the affected area.
Complidermol 5α PLUS has an increased effect on the known hormonal factor and in addition treats these newly-identified pathophysiological factors, which play a part in the shrinkage of hair follicles characteristic of this condition.
Complidermol 5α PLUS has been developed to slow down the progression of FAA, revitalise the hair follicle and lengthen the anagen phase of hair growth. The aim is to improve hair quality and the quality of life of women suffering from this condition.
