Niostem, a biotech company that specializes in stem cell research, is set to launch its revolutionary wearable device for enhancing hair regrowth. The launch is scheduled for April 2023, and people can reserve the device now and purchase it in April at a discounted price of $899. The original price of the device will be $1200, and the first batch of products will be delivered in October.
Unlike other hair loss companies that focus on developing shampoos and cosmetics, Niostem's journey began with skin cancer research at Germany's top biotech institute, Max-Planck. The co-founder, Carlos A. Chacón-Martínez, has been analyzing organoid models to better understand cancer evolution, which introduced him to Hair Follicle Stem Cells (HFSCs), and their relationship between skin and hair regrowth.
The main factor contributing to Male Pattern Baldness is DHT, which not only affects the hair follicle but also the growth engine of the skin and hair- the HFSCs. With too much exposure to DHT, the HFSCs become dormant, leading to miniaturization of the hair follicles, thinner hair, and eventual baldness. Niostem's solution is not to block DHT, but to reactivate the HFSCs through low-level electrical stimulation. This stem cell reactivation technology helps trigger the natural growth cycle of the body, leading to hair regrowth without manipulating hormones or causing any side effects.
“The Niostem wearable is 100% drug-free, naturally powerful, and easy to use. Users only need to spend 30 minutes a day using the device, which is wire-free and hassle-free, making it simple to integrate into their daily routine. In our pilot study, conducted over six months, the testers stopped their hair loss after three months and increased their hair density by 19.3% on average after six months”, says Carlos A. Chacón-Martínez, biologist and Co-Founder of Niostem.
Niostem collaborated with the Surrey Trichology Clinic to quantify hair density for all the study participants. The results were plotted against the trial results of other products, and Niostem's wearable device was found to be six times more effective than leading medications.
“Our mission is to revolutionize skin and hair health as a whole by using regenerative wearable technology to amplify the human body to reach its full potential. We aim for a paradigm shift in which technology is used to enhance the body’s functionality. By targeting the HFSCs, our device helps reactivate cell growth, kickstarting natural hair regrowth without causing any side effects” says Emil Aliev, Co-Founder of Niostem.
About Niostem
Niostem is a biotech company, dedicated to unlocking the body's regenerative potential through innovative technology. Formerly known as Mane Biotech, Niostem is focused on developing solutions that empower clients to live healthier lives. Their mission is to revolutionize dermatological care by developing wearable technology that amplifies the human body's natural abilities to reach its full potential. The company's first product is a smart wearable device designed to combat hair loss. Unlike traditional hair loss medications that focus on blocking hormones like DHT, Niostem's device leverages the power of stem cells to promote natural hair regrowth. By delivering low-level electrical stimulation to reactivate dormant hair follicle stem cells, the device provides healthier and thicker hair within 6 months.
