Description

FSS HFCI Complex PF is a hair growth-modulating active designed to support the development of next-generation shaving and depilatory products. Hair grows through a distinct cycle of phases—anagen (growth), catagen (regression), and telogen (rest). FSS HFCI Complex PF works by targeting the anagen phase, actively encouraging an earlier shift into catagen, thus shortening the time that hair remains in the active growth state. By doing so, this innovative complex helps reduce the visible rate and density of regrowth over time.

At the core of FSS HFCI Complex PF is a proprietary blend of flavones derived from cocoa via fermentation, paired with a bioengineered decapeptide that mimics the binding activity of Fibroblast Growth Factor-5 (FGF-5). This dual-action mechanism inhibits two major biological pathways responsible for sustaining hair growth. The flavones suppress Ornithine Decarboxylase (ODC)—an enzyme essential for cell proliferation during anagen—while the decapeptide interferes with FGF-5 signaling, further promoting the transition to catagen.

When used alongside keratolytic agents that remove existing hair, FSS HFCI Complex PF enhances long-term hair reduction outcomes, offering formulators a powerful ingredient for advanced hair-minimizing solutions in both facial and body care.

MADE OF:

FSS HFCI Complex PF is composed of flavones isolated from cocoa through fermentation and a bioengineered decapeptide that mimics Fibroblast Growth Factor-5. These actives are delivered in a water base for easy incorporation into water-based formulations.

Why It’s Perfect for You:


Perfect for brands developing shaving, post-shaving, or depilatory care products that go beyond surface hair removal. FSS HFCI Complex PF empowers your formulas to reduce hair regrowth over time by targeting biological pathways that regulate the hair cycle. This advanced approach is ideal for innovative body care and grooming brands offering functional performance with scientific credibility.

Suggested Applications

Ideal for shaving creams, post-shave serums, depilatory products, hair growth-reducing treatments, and advanced body care systems formulated to minimize regrowth and extend smoothness.
