Frequently Asked Questions
Can peptides help with thinning due to stress, hormones or aging?
They can. Rather than targeting a single cause, hair growth peptides support the overall health and function of the hair follicles. By helping to improve circulation, nutrient delivery and growth signaling, they create a healthier environment for hair to grow, no matter what’s driving the thinning.
Are hair growth peptides safe?
Topical and oral peptides have excellent safety profiles, they are biomimetic compounds that work with natural biology. IFP-131™ recorded no significant side effects across multiple double-blind, placebo-controlled human trials. Topical peptides have poor penetration. Injectable peptides like BPC-157 and Thymosin Beta-4 are not FDA approved and require careful clinical monitoring. Anyone with a medical condition or taking medications should consult a healthcare professional before beginning any supplement protocol.
How long do hair growth peptides take to work?
Expect initial shedding reduction by day 90, the clinical benchmark used in published studies. Full results develop 90 days and after, reflecting the biology of the hair growth cycle. Do not evaluate any peptide protocol before the 3-month mark.
What makes IFP-131™ different from other peptides?
IFP-131™ is a patented hair growth peptide developed from more than 25 years of research. According to OMI, it has been studied for absorption, delivery, and biological activity at the follicle, where hair growth support is needed most.
