•Actor Matthew McConaughey has promoted his use of Regenix for hair growth for more than two decades.
•The company says Regenix utilizes vitamins, minerals, and plant extracts to build a customized hair growth product for customers.
•Some experts, however, say there’s no solid evidence that Regenix works as well as the company says it does.
•They also note that hair growth products should only be used by people with thinning hair and not people who are experiencing baldness or other more serious hair growth issues.
Besides being a highly successful actor, Matthew McConaughey makes a living as a celebrity spokesperson, from Lincoln cars to Wild Turkey whiskey to beef, being the new face of telling people, “It’s what’s for dinner.”
But one of McConaughey’s longest endorsements — Regenix — is making headlines because he attributes the hair regrowing system with giving his locks new life, something he reportedly opines on in his new memoir.
According to its website, Regenix uses “natural biopharmaceuticals — vitamins, minerals, and plant extracts from citrus and chamomile to tea tree oil and Aragon” and the personalized formulations are “drug-free, chemical-free, which means no side effects.”
“The ingredients are naturally derived,” Regenix’s FAQ page says. “We have thousands of potential combinations, but the formula is tailored to you because no two scalps are alike.”
Much like traditional herbal and nutritional supplements, Regenix isn’t regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
With that in mind, is there any proof that Regenix is as effective as something like Propecia or other more scrutinized hair replacement methods?
Despite its website saying Regenix is “rooted in science” and stating it’s helped more than half a million people with “hair and scalp issues,” the company offers no proof of how it works, if it does, or even what ingredients, specifically, are in the tailored treatments.
In addition, Medical News Today reported last fall that there’s no solid evidence to support this particular treatment actually works.
Dr. Ken L. Williams Jr., a surgeon and founder of Orange County Hair Restoration in California, said he respects McConaughey for his acting talents, “but he is not a medical doctor.”
Regenix, Williams said, uses marketing practices that feed off of people’s emotional responses to hair loss.
There’s also the cost to using Regenix or other similar products.
Yuksel Sahin, a hair stylist with a namesake salon on Manhattan’s Upper East Eide, said at one point he was spending up to $300 a month on medical drugs and herbal medicines to treat his hair loss until he found something that actually worked.
“I highly recommend hair implants for best results,” Sahin said. “I love the results. It really worked fast.”
While a big-name celebrity like McConaughey will testify his beautiful locks are due to decades of using Regenix, there are other, lesser-known folks who might have to think twice before dropping $200 on a starter kit that’s meant to last a month.
