rh-Polypeptide-13

rh-Polypeptide-13 is known under the trade name CG-Noggin (former INCI name Human Oligopeptide-18; rh-Oligopeptide-18) is a synthetic single-chain recombinant polypeptide that promotes hair growth while inhibiting its depigmentation. It is specially developed to strengthen and stimulate hair follicles.

In addition, rh-Polypeptide-13 enhances blood circulation in the scalp revitalizing hair follicles. CG-Noggin is an antagonist of BMP4 (Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4) that inhibits hair follicle development.

So, CG-Noggin acts as a stimulator of hair placode formation. Additionally, it significantly enhances epidermal thickness and cell proliferation. Scientific studies showed that CG-Noggin stimulates hair follicle development in embryonic skin organ culture.

It is a safe and effective ingredient against hair loss and depigmentation (white hair). CG-Noggin is used in high-end hair, lash, and eyebrow care products.
