Capixyl is a bio-mimetic peptide (Acetyl tetrapeptide-3) with a red clover extract rich in Biochanin A. It's a unique innovative Hair Care Complex with anti-aging properties that prevents and halts hair loss and at the same time stimulates hair growth including eyelashes.
It preserves the activity of HFSC (hair follicle stem cells), modulates Dihydrotestosterone via 5-α reductase activity inhibition (increases testosterone), stimulates extracellular matrix renewal and protein synthesis for better hair follicle anchoring. Capixyl decreases cytokines causing inflammation. Its effect is based on the combined and synergistic effect of these two ingredients.
3 crucial factors to slow down hair loss:
- Reduction of DHT generation
- Promotes the generation of ECM protein components (of which hair consists) which stimulate hair follicles and thus hair growth
- Strengthens and promotes better anchorage of the hair in the papilla

Where to buy Capixyl?
Capixyl is not a ready-to-use product. It's an important ingredient in hair and scalp care products.
So, if you need the positive effects of it, please take a look at ready-to-use products containing high-dose Capixyl™.
What is the benefit of Biochanin A?
Biochanin A is the primary isoflavone found in red clover extract. It effectively inhibits the generation of 5-alpha-reductase, resulting in the reduced generation of DHT – dihydrotestosterone. DHT (dihydrotestosterone) shortens the hair growth cycle, thus promoting hair loss and the formation of sparse, thin hair. So, it prevents hair loss.
Studies have confirmed that Biochanin A modulates continuous inflammation and that red clover’s isoflavones may additionally act as essential antioxidants, restricting free radicals' injury to the skin and scalp.
What is the benefit of Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3?
Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 (Folixyl®) is a biomimetic peptide, that stimulates protein generation in the dermal papilla and thus has a direct effect on the size and anchoring of hair follicles.
It is procured from a signal peptide that has effective tissue-protective properties and excites tissue reconstruction after the primary stage of wound healing. This tetra-peptide has a direct impact on the hair follicle. The reconstruction signal expands the size of the hair follicle to increase hair quantity and vitality. It promotes the growth of healthy thick hair.
