Every year, on March 6th, World Hair Day reminds us of the importance of hair care and the scientific advances that help improve its health and appearance. In this context, Grupo Insparya, through its Research and Technology Center – Insparya Hair Science – positions itself at the forefront of hair research. With new regenerative therapies, we aim to revolutionize not only treatments for alopecia but also preventive approaches, helping those who wish to increase hair density and strength.
Research and Innovation: The Commitment of Grupo Insparya
Our primary goal, especially through our research department, is to provide men and women with effective solutions to combat alopecia and promote follicular regeneration. Additionally, we work every day to offer alternatives for transplant candidates who do not have a sufficient donor area and are looking for definitive solutions to reverse hair loss.
The complexity of the hair follicular unit is at the heart of this ambitious project. Through pioneering research, the Insparya team applies cutting-edge technologies in developing therapeutic solutions that improve patients’ quality of life.
Insparya’s Scientific Advances in Hair Regeneration
The Research and Technology Center – Insparya Hair Science – is conducting several innovative studies to enhance hair treatments and expand therapeutic possibilities. Among the key studies are:
- Molecular Signature Study: Analysis of human hair follicle cells to understand the effects of androgenetic alopecia and pharmacological treatments. Through a multi-genomic approach, the team studies altered signaling pathways and how they can be restored with different therapies.
- High-Throughput Cellular Assays: Development of tests to identify new compounds capable of maintaining and restoring the hair growth-inducing properties of hair follicle stem cells.
- Preclinical Validation: Assessment of new compounds’ efficacy in improving the hair follicle growth cycle using human follicle organ cultures and animal models.
- In Vitro Follicular Cell Expansion: Integration of scientific knowledge to enhance the proliferation of hair follicle cells in the laboratory, preserving their inductive potential to form small follicular germs with possible clinical application.
Leadership in Hair Research
By conducting cellular-level studies and working with scalp stem cells, Grupo Insparya is at the forefront of knowledge in this field. Thanks to the close connection between research and clinical practice, and under the leadership of Dr. Carlos Portinha, Chief Clinical Officer of the group, and Elsa Logarinho, Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Porto, new solutions for our patients are developed daily. All of this is done with the certainty of offering the most advanced hair health solutions, as demonstrated by the new treatments set to launch in 2025, both in clinics and for at-home use.
With this multidisciplinary approach and a constant commitment to innovation, Grupo Insparya offers revolutionary therapeutic solutions that are transforming the present and future of hair health.
