The Research Behind Every Drop
Every ingredient in Medíté is backed by peer-reviewed clinical studies. Read the full evidence below.
We don't borrow authority. We cite it.
Every active in this formula has published research behind it. Here are the studies.
Matched minoxidil 2% for hair count at six months
A randomized 6-month trial on androgenetic alopecia found rosemary oil matched minoxidil 2% for hair count improvement, with significantly less scalp itching.
Panahi et al., SKINmed, 2015Studied for its role in the pathway behind hair thinning
Rosemary leaf extract promoted hair growth in preclinical research, with activity linked to inhibition of 5-alpha reductase, an enzyme involved in hair thinning.
Murata et al., Phytotherapy Research, 2013More follicles, deeper follicles, in four weeks
3% peppermint oil produced a 92% increase in follicle count and deeper follicles at 4 weeks, outperforming the 3% pharmaceutical control in the same preclinical study.
Oh et al., Toxicological Research, 2014Castor's main fatty acid hits the balding-scalp pathway
Ricinoleic acid, the main fatty acid in castor oil, was identified in screening research as an inhibitor of prostaglandin D2 synthase, the pathway elevated in balding scalps.
Fong et al., Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 20155% tea tree oil improved scalp condition nearly 4× over placebo
In a 126-person randomized trial, a 5% tea tree oil treatment improved scalp condition 41% versus 11% for placebo, clearing the flaking and microbial buildup that compromise the environment hair depends on.
Satchell et al., Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2002Real change takes a full growth cycle
Across the trials above, measurable change appears at 8 to 12+ weeks, a full hair growth cycle. No study shows overnight results, which is why our guarantee runs 90 days.
Findings refer to peer-reviewed studies of individual ingredients, not of the finished product.
