Revision 559942269 of "Tricomin" on enwiki

{{Unreferenced|auto=yes|date=December 2009}}


'''Tricomin''' may refer to a Chilean mining drilling company or to a purported non-drug alternative to prevent [[hair loss]] and [[alopecia]], with a [[Copper peptide GHK-Cu|copper peptide]] as a key ingredient. The product is manufactured by the [[ProCyte]] corporation.

Tricomin hair loss is a superoxide dismutase formed from a metal complexed peptide. This works as a hair growth stimulant by improving collagen synthesis and possibly repairing skin and hair function. An 80% response rate has been reported for Tricomin in early tests. Phase II FDA clinical trial results were released which reported positive growth effects. The company has released a line of products, including shampoos, conditioners, and a therapy spray, which are available from doctors and mail order distributors. They are marketing the product as a cosmetic rather than going through FDA approval.
