0.2. Anti-aging effects of HSF.
The joint-study “A single-center blinded randomized clinical trial to evaluate the anti-aging effects of HSF-based skin care” is a dermatologist-controlled, 6-week split-face study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology in April 2020. It included researchers from the Technical University of Munich, Johannes Kepler University, Stanford University, University of Pittsburgh, and University of Florida.
The study used FOITS 3D-analysis, which is regarded as the most advanced standard of anti-aging efficacy assessment. After 6 weeks of treatment this method confirmed a visual rejuvenation to the extent of 2.8 years. The clinical evaluation by a panel of dermatologists and plastic surgeons showed a significant reduction of wrinkles and fine lines and an increase of dermal firmness, elasticity, and moisture.

0.3. Preserves skin health in all skin types.
Tomorrowlabs products maintain the important barrier function of the skin and are suitable for all skin types. This is important as healthy-looking skin starts with a strong, healthy skin barrier. The skin is the largest organ in our body and protects us from viruses, bacteria, ultraviolet rays, and pollution. Especially in the case of sensitive skin prone to problems, the impairment of our skin barrier can open the door to diseases and functional disorders.
0.4. HSF effects on hereditary hair loss.
A dermatologist-controlled clinical study has been looking into the effect of HSF in the context of hereditary hair loss. In a blinded human trial over a period of 12 weeks, HSF has been shown to reduce or halt hair loss in 88% of the study participants suffering from alopecia, a maximum reduction of hair loss by 88.41%, and an average improvement of 62.1%. Considering the mean hair loss rate in healthy patients, this represents the normalization of hair turnover in individuals suffering from alopecia. The patients reported an improved look and feel.

0.5. Examination of hair quantity and thickness.
The innovative HSF active ingredient technology was developed based on knowledge deducted from Nobel Prize winning research and is designed to tackle hereditary hair loss at its root. In hair model studies, HSF demonstrated its growth-promoting properties in an examination of the hair follicles.3 An active ingredient complex contained in the Tomorrowlabs Hair Restoration products together with HSF targets stem cells and fibroblasts in order to improve hair growth and at the same time reduce hereditary hair loss. In a clinical investigation of 26 subjects with androgenetic alopecia the active ingredient complex led to a clinically measurable increase in hair growth and reduction in hair loss after three months of daily use.1 Over the duration of the study, its effect on hair quantity, hair thickness, hair length and the growth rate and duration of Hair growth phase (anagen phase) was examined. Tomorrowlabs HSF hair products have been specifically designed for hereditary hair loss and are skin-friendly.

Skin Rejuvenation through HIF-1α Modulation
It has been demonstrated that HIF-1 is critical for cutaneous homeostasis, specifically, in the context of aging. The up-regulation of HIF-1 leads to the correction of age-dependent impairments of HIF-1 expression. This directly results in improved cutaneous regeneration and resistance to stressors such as radiation and infection. These benefits are mediated by means of positive effects on all cutaneous cell types; the upregulation of proregenerative cytokines, growth factors, and peptides; and the recruitment of circulating regenerative cells.

HIF-1α-Modulation - Hoffungsvoller Ansatz für Anti-Aging Skin Care und Haarregeneration
Specialist disciplines such as plastic surgery or aesthetic dermatology have set themselves the task of delaying the aging process and maintaining a young appearance. In an increasingly well-informed society, knowledge of the principles of action and evidence of cosmetic products are of great importance. A particularly promising approach, which will have a lasting impact on the fight against age-related deficits in the skin and its appendages, is the modulation of the HIF-1α signaling pathway.

Iron Chelators & HIF-1α: A new Frontier for Skin Rejuvenation
The possibilities of a therapeutic modulation of hypoxia inducible signaling pathways by repurposing iron chelators are promising. An upregulation of HIF-1 alpha mediated by iron-chelation leads to the correction of age-dependent changes of HIF-1 expression. This directly results in improved cutaneous regeneration, as well as in resistance to exogenous stressors such as radiation and infection. These benefits are mediated through positive effects on all cutaneous cell types, the upregulation of proregenerative cytokines, growth factors and peptides, and the recruitment of circulating regenerative cells.

Molecular Mechanisms of Hair Growth and Regeneration – Current Understanding and Novel Paradigms
This review summarizes the current understanding of hair follicle development, repair, and regeneration, with special focus on cell signaling pathways governing these processes. In particular, we discuss emerging paradigms of molecular signaling governing the dermal papilla-epithelial cellular interactions during hair growth and maintenance and the recent progress made towards tissue engineering of human hair follicles.

A single-center blinded randomized clinical trial to evaluate the anti-aging effects of a novel HSF-based skin care formulation
The clinical evaluation of HSF-based skin care formulation using a validated method confirmed significant improvement of wrinkles, in particular of fine wrinkles, lip wrinkles, and crow's feet. A significant skin moisturizing effect was detected while skin barrier function was preserved. A significant reduction in skin roughness could be demonstrated. No negative skin reactions of dermatological relevance were documented for the test product.

Deferiprone Stimulates Aged Dermal Fibroblasts via HIF-1 alpha Modulation
The activation of HIF-1 by DFP enhances cell metabolism, proliferation, and survival of fibroblasts while reducing lactate dehydrogenase levels. Modulation of HIF-1 is linked to activation of key regeneration enzymes and proteins, and by proxy, antiaging. Therefore, the antiaging properties of DFP and its satisfactory dermal penetration make it a promising regenerative agent.

HIF-1α Stimulators Function Equally to Leading Hair Loss Agents in Enhancing Dermal Papilla Growth
Here we demonstrate a significantly enhanced proliferative activity for both established substances against AGA (minoxidil and caffeine) and the HIF-1α-stimulating agent DFP in a 3D DPC spheroid culture model with equal results for DFP and minoxidil. These favorable characteristics make such compounds potential water-soluble alternatives to minoxidil.

A Novel Hair Restoration Technology Counteracts AndrogenicHair Loss and Promotes Hair Growth
The use of Tomorrowlabs HSF hair restoration resulted in improvements in the clinical parameters of hair quality such as thickness (+7.2%), hair density (+14.3%) and shine and elasticity (+20.3%) during the test period. The effectiveness of the test product was further determined by a significant reduction in hair loss of an average of 66.8% in treatment-responsive subjects after 6 months and an increase in hair growth reaching up to 32.5%, with an average percentage change of 8.4% in all participants and 10.8% in the responsive patients (85% of the study cohort) after 9 months on TrichoScan evaluation. The hair growth cycle was harmonized with the result of an average anagen hair percentage increase of +8.0% and telogen hair percentage reduction of −14.0% shown in the test area.
