Deltracin – Wnt Upregulator

It didn’t take long for the first potential wild card of 2016 to show up, and that’s a good thing.

wild

Could it be?

Last week when I had the pleasure of interviewing hair transplant surgeon Dr. John Cole, he mentioned that he was working to bring a new hair growth product to the US. That product is called Deltracin. Naturally, I was intrigued by this development and sought more information to share with you all. Here it is.

Deltacrin makes a capsule and topical agent. It is from Italy. Dr. Antonella Tosti, who is a well known researcher from the University of Miami and a major player at the World Congress for Hair Research, did a study on this product.  She found that it increases hair counts slightly and also improves hair mass slightly in many, but not all patients.  It is based on natural ingredients that are proprietary to the company. That makes it interesting because it should be available soon in the US. Dr. Cole is in talks with the company now to bring it here to the US.  It is a WNT upregulator. Dr. Cole does not expect it to be a cure, but an adjunct treatment.

This is good news from my viewpoint. The product has been studied by a legitimate hair researcher and has shown positive results. The ingredients are natural and thus, can be implemented in the US rather quickly. The product affects the Wnt pathway as an upregulator. Dr. Cole is a surgeon of hair restoration which brings credibility to the potential of this product. What I’ve shared thus far is all of the information I have on the product. In the future if I receive an update from Dr. Cole I will report back to you all.

Update: The product page of the Deltracin product has been located – Deltracin WNT. The ingredients are listed on the page and as reported are natural. Since this article was originally wrote, I do not feel this product constitutes a true ‘Wild Card.’

In lieu of the questions that I imagine will be asked I’ve created a simple FAQ here:

What kind of results do you expect from this product?

At this point, we don’t know yet. Perhaps they will be similar to minoxidil. More info should be provided soon.

Where can we buy this product now?
As far as I know it is available in Italy now. I personally don’t know where to buy it.

When can we buy this product in the US?
It remains undetermined at this time whether the product will be brought to the US.

    available in italy since mid 2015 afaik.
    I’m not so convinced by the spraying thing, rather than direct scalp application with some rubbing… (but glad to be proven wrong).

    You really think this will be helpful at all? I see their supplement has soy in it. Everybody and their grandmother knows that this does nothing against MPB.
