Revivogen contains zinc and azaleic acid.
Dr. Loren Pickart, inventor of Tricomin, American Crew, and Folligen copper peptide products, has on his website that longterm use of zinc, although a DHT inhibitor, damages the skin around the follicle, and ultimately the hair. THat info is at skinbiology.com which is his website.
The other ingredients in Revivogen which are ALA, GLA, Linoleic, Linolenic, and Oleic acid inhibit DHT in test tubes in varying degrees and if they can traverse the scalps water layers to where the alpha 5 type 1 enzymes are located, would SEEM to be really helpful.
However, like you guys........Im pissed at the company that makes Revivogen. Dammit, men outta KNOW test results of ANY product before they say goodbye to their hard earned money.

"-- from the man himself - Dr. Alex A Khadavi, MD answered: "1. The clinical trials are on-going with open enrollment at multiple centers. So until we have all the data from all the centers the study will not be closed. 2. The patent is at the patent office awaiting full patent authorization. 3. The latest formula has been existance since 2002. You are getting the latest product. We are doing new testing with additional botanical ingredients, but until we show higher effectiveness with these new combinations we will not release them into the market. " --"
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office shows neither a patent granted nor a patent application under review for any inventor named Khavadi or for any assignee named either Revivogen or Advanced Skin and Hair, yet Revivogen has mentioned patent pending status since at least 2003.
Under prior rules, U.S. applications filed before Mar. 15, 2001, were not published and would not be listed in a search at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. As of early 2006 an application at least that old would have been pending nearly 5 years. Even in the fields of heaviest demand, it is rare for an application to remain pending more than 3-4 years unless there has been some significant problem.
Will Dr. Khadavi be more forthcoming about the status of the patent application that he says is pending?

Ive resigned myself to the belief that revivogens "secret" clinical trials will never be concluded and are merely a marketing technique to get people to buy into the product -
I'd have far more respect for them if they just came clean and said they beleive the evidence on the effectiveness of the ingriedients in the serum was enough to prove it may be helpful against hairloss.
then again maybe more people buy it on the hope it will be clinically proven to be effective.

I think the Patent Office will hold off on granting some patents until they see more research from independent sources (or other patent filings) supporting the original patent application. Not sure on this though.
So, they could "hold" your patent application for a long time before granting it. They sometimes need "supporting" evidence from other sources?
If I remember correctly, this long delay happened to Doctor Proctor on some of his patents.
