Science

This ingredient operates through several mechanisms, providing comprehensive benefits. It functions as a potent antioxidant, combating free radical damage, and exhibits anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial actions, making it effective against various skin conditions like eczema and allergic dermatitis. Sanguisorba Officinalis Root/Stalk Powder protects the skin from premature aging, aids in skin regeneration, and contributes to anti-wrinkle activity, partly due to compounds like ziyuglycoside I. Crucially, its root extract contains an inhibitor for fibroblast growth factor-5 (FGF-5), which extends the anagen (growth) phase of hair follicles, thereby reducing hair loss and stimulating new hair growth.
