Horse Tail Extract (Equisetum Arvense)
The cornerstone of the Revox Laboratories Horse Tail Complex, a potent botanical extract with centuries of trichological use.
Horse Tail (Equisetum Arvense) is one of nature's richest sources of bioavailable silica, a mineral essential for the structural integrity of hair, skin and nails. Revox Laboratories has isolated and concentrated this extract as the foundation of their Horse Tail Complex, targeting the scalp ecosystem and hair vitality at the root level.
Clinical Applications
- Supports a balanced scalp environment and reduces buildup at the follicle
- Provides bioavailable silica to strengthen the hair cortex and cuticle
- Improves microcirculation in the scalp, increasing oxygen and nutrient delivery
- Supports the natural growth rhythm of the hair cycle
Mechanism of Action
The silica compounds in Horse Tail Extract bond with keratin precursors in the hair matrix, reinforcing the structural framework from within. Simultaneously, its flavonoid profile helps neutralise free radicals that contribute to oxidative stress on the scalp. This is one of the leading causes of premature hair thinning.
