Embodiment

[0029] A study was performed to evaluate the effect of resveratrol on cell proliferation of dermal fibroblasts, follicular dermal papilla fibroblasts, from 5 normal adults (3 females and 2 males).

[0030] A study evaluating the effect of resveratrol on cell proliferation of follicular keratinocytes was performed on cells from a normal healthy individual (female).

[0031] A study was performed to evaluate the effect of resveratrol on the growth of Anagen(IV) intact hair follicles isolated from 2 females aged 49 and 60 years.

[0032] Compositions were prepared containing 1.6% resveratrol in a dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) vehicle such that when the composition was added to the test growth medium, the resveratrol The levels of resveratrol in the test were 25 micromolar, 50 micromolar, 75 micromolar, 100 micromolar or 200 micromolar, and the corresponding DMSO levels were 0.036 wt%, 0.0715 wt%, 0.107 wt%, 0.143 wt%, 0.286 weight%.

Abstract

A cosmetic and therapeutic method for reducing human hair growth comprises selecting an area of skin from which reduced hair growth is desired and applying to the area of skin a composition comprising resveratrol in an amount effective to reduce hair growth.

Electrolysis is particularly effective at keeping the treated area hair-free for extended periods of time, but the method is time-consuming and painful. Electrolysis also has the potential risk of scarring if excessive electrical current is appli...
