Discussion on the new Revivogen Study

[ripple-effect]

Revivogen should be the first option b.c it's safe and natural. You should choose propecia if you're desperate and don't know what else to do. You should expect at least maintence on revivogen and few weeks of shedding....you have to expect these things if you want to stop hair loss.

I really hate when people use this reasoning....Saw palmetto is natural too, but it still gives people cases of gyno JUST LIKE PROPECIA.

Ripple Effect (love the name by the way, what is from?),


Have you been using Revivogen? I am seriously thinking about using it, although it is really expensive. I tried Nioxin shampoo/treatment but I think that just made my receeding hairline worse. This stuff seems legit though.

I was wondering does it thicken up the hair you have? My hair is curly and doesn't look good when thinning. I mean I'd love to keep what I have, but thick/healthy hair is good too. Also, is this suppose to last for 2-7 years and then you are back to square one like Propecia or can you maintain longer? I was thinking that I would use the Rev. treatment and use Nizoral shampoo since it is cheaper.

Sorry for so many questions, but no one talking about natural products on this site.

my experience with revivogen.

to start with, i used the stuff for 4 months.

i didn't mind the slight oilyness of the product. it added 'texture' to my hair. made it look and feel thicker immediately after application.

the smell is hard to describe, like a cheap cologne imho, but it was not a problem as it becomes unnoticeable after an hour or so (for me anyway)

i did not notice any improvements to my hair. it looked as if i had lost a little more ground after 4 months.

during use, i think the alcohol caused irritation to my scalp or maybe it was another ingredient. so i stopped using it as i felt it did not do anything.

a few weeks after stopping, i began to shed, i was losing hairs more than ever before.

i decided to get back on it and shortly after using the product again the shedding stopped.

i eventually quit again because of the irratation.

i feel revivogen slows down hair loss while at the same time it also slows down hair growth.

Are you the same poster who posted on HLH that he had great success with Zix?

I agree. Cocaine is all natural too but it may kill your brain cells permanently.

I still havent got any answers to my questions from Revivogen. I'd like to know how they know that their product reaches dermis and hence hair follicles. And why havent they done any studies on humans, it seems like their product has been around since 1999!

Those being said, I may still try it...

What you posted had to do with this latest study.

Lol..nope....these percentages(not exact) were already known previous to this study. If you didn't know that ....then that sure is proof you don't have a clue what you're talking about and why you're view is obscured.

You mention only caffeine in your useless topical as having "some study"...lol... that makes no sense to me. Revivogen is packed with ingredients that have solid studies on almost all of it's ingredients and yet you want to think it's snake oil because he (apparently to you) decided add 2 solid new ingredients that would most likely help create a better formula and you think this is wrong b/c he previously said that he "currently" wasn't going to add ingredients and by currently you thought he meant never.. you make no sense at all..

Ok..show me where, in the previous study, they had those figures with finasteride and dutasteride or whatever is in the new one.

Caffeine was the only one I used the word "study" with. If you have been around here for any length of time you'd know melatonin has a "study"...zinc has a "study"..etc etc. (I just went to the "research page" at Revivogen and yeah..WOW..tons of studies on tons of ingredients) I never said Revivogen is snake-oil. I said they are great at marketing this stuff, and will tell you anything to get you interested(see my previous posts). I also said they've been around for years, and I(for one) would prefer to try other things since Revivogen hasn't exactly been the WOW product all this time.

 

[DoctorHouse]

Jacob, name one WOW product. I cannot think of anything other than an Armani hair transplant. That is the biggest WOW on hair restoration I have ever seen. I have not seen any other product on the market produce such a WOW result for everyone like he does. However, Revivogen does naturally make the hair thicker and healthier than Propecia or Rogaine, per my experience so I would give it a big WOW in my case.

 

[Jacob]

Ah..thanks for your post. Because you reminded me of something that has to do with something else I said. Why is Revivogen so "popular" on these types of sites, and yet it's not really anything better than anything else out there? There isn't a WOW product out there and yet this one almost is made out to be just that? I've seen Nioxin products that impress me more, if you want to just look at the ingredients. And what's that other one similar to Revivogen...can't think of the name.

This is, again, why I prefer to try out new(and imo better) things. Juveline seems to be that WOW product for me, but I do use other things as well. It'll be interesting to see what happens this spring/summer, when I usually do better hair regrowth-wise.

 

[DoctorHouse]

Jacob, how long have you used Juveline and are there any studies with it that show its effectiveness? Does it also contain alcohol? Has anyone else used it and why are you saying its a WOW product? I am curious because I would like to give it a try as long as it is alcohol free.

no. i don't know who that is. :dunno:

i am currently using a shampoo that does contain zinc (and menthol).
not really doing anything except no shedding and no irratation.

I think I'm right around the 3 month mark.
No studies on the product itself.
No alcohol. No PG.
Some others are using it- one here commented that it was working for him as well.
It's a WOW product for me because it's the only one where I've noticed my hair actually thicken up so much in quite a short period of time- mainly talking about existing hairs here from the big hairs to the little hairs(to keep it simple). Also some nice regrowth along the temple areas. Still have plenty of room for improvement- like I said by this summer I should really know how it's going.

Keep in mind I'm using/taking a # of other things as well, it just seems this Juveline has kicked things up a notch.

 

[DoctorHouse]

Does the topical go on cosmetically acceptable? Not greasy or sticky? Does it go on clean? By the way can you still get a free bottle of Nanoscalp with it? Does Nanoscalp thicken the hair immediately cosmetically?

What is that?

 

[ripple-effect]

abovedagame, maybe you have a point....just because it's natural doesn't mean it's 100% which wasn't my intention when saying that. What I meant was....compared to finasteride...it's the safer option. You'd be lucky if you were to find any google references between Saw palmetto and gyno....not the same case with finasteride and gyno.

I would only use this at night, as it has a yellowish tint to it.

Not greasy...not sticky. My one complaint about it(since I'm used to having to use their topicals at night) is that it doesn't spread as nice as their other topicals. Maybe they will or already have improved that.

I think their sale is over-with, although they do seem to give everybody some free product of some kind, especially on the first order. It could be just more of what you ordered though, or something else.

No, I've never noticed Nanoscalp thickening things up right away..and I used that before Juveline ever came out. It is more cosmetically acceptable though- I can get away with that one during the day.

Hey guys. I just sent these questions to Revivogen. I hope they answer and the answers would be good and satisfactory and true:

1) This study was done on "reconstructed human epidermis". Hair follicles are, on the other hand, in dermis. Can you say anything about the inhibition of DHT in dermis due to Revivogen? Would the results in dermis be as good as in epidermis? Do you know how much of the DHT that causes male pattern hair loss Revivogen inhibits?

Ughh. I feel a lil silly. I've been considering about using Revivogen for like 2 weeks now but I just watched their video on their website. It's also in Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgQdW5fj9zw

Dr Khadavi says there that they use this delivery system which delivers 95% of the contents of the solution into the hair follicle. If he is correct, then that's great news, IMO, since this solution has excellent in vitro results. I was afraid that the solution would just sit on scalp and not get absorbed but I was wrong. So I think it makes sense that Revivogen should be really effective.

I think I'm gonna start it. Wish me luck!

 

[Jacob]

But you still haven't gotten answers to your questions...right.....

 

[ripple-effect]

Jacob, what Chris is saying is that the video answered his question. Khadavi voluntarily chooses to answer questions whenever he can...but he does not have to because the product speaks for itself. I think you are only against Revivogen purely because of the fact it makes your hair look like crap(or might from the reviews you've heard) so you choose to go with a product with zero studies to back it up because it makes your hair look more cosmetically pleasable during the day.
