Smell, which accelerates hair growth and saves you from baldness

According to the journal Nature Communication,scientists have found a new way to speed up hair growth and protect against age-related damage to the cells of hair follicles. An international team of scientists from Germany and the UK it was found that to save the hair effectively helps the scent of sandalwood.

Scientific experts have conducted experiments with samples of scalp taken from patients who underwent a facelift. The patches of skin were placed in a solution with molecules of the synthetic scent of sandalwood. It turned out that after that they began to actively produce the hormone responsible for hair growth in average production has increased by 25-30%.

According to scientists, the assumption that the smell of sandalwood can activate hair growth appeared even earlier. The study showed that the skin of the olfactory receptor OR2AT4 able to activate od the influence of the smell of sandalwood. This time, the researchers were able to ascertain that the receptor OR2AT4 in case of contact with the molecules of a substance with the smell of sandalwood for its activity slows the aging of cells associated with hair growth.

“Under the influence of the smell of sandalwood OR2AT4 triggers a complex signaling process, in which the skin cells begin to intensely divide and faster to navigate to the desired location. About the same molecular processes take place that the skin grew new hair,” said the authors of the project in the journal.
According to experts, the smell of sandal not only accelerates hair growth and protects against baldness, but also enhances the regeneration of skin when it is damage – all due sensitivity to the aroma of the receptor OR2AT4.
