VENEZE Peptide Factor Hair Serum Compared With Topical 2% Minoxidil for Androgenetic Alopecia

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA)

In brief

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and tolerability of a peptide-based hair serum compared with topical minoxidil in patients with androgenetic alopecia. Participants will be randomly assigned, in a double-blind manner, to receive either the peptide hair serum or topical minoxidil. The primary objective is to assess improvement in hair growth over the study period, including changes in hair density and hair thickness. Secondary outcomes will include safety and tolerability assessments. The findings of this study may provide evidence supporting an alternative treatment option for patients with androgenetic alopecia.
