The new mode of action

Different from Minoxidil & Finasteride.

Minoxidil and Finasteride are considered established active ingredients for hair loss – both orally and topically. However, even when applied externally, they can cause unwanted side effects. 8T3 is based on a new active principle that targets the hair root – locally, gently and without affecting the hormonal system.

It's worth comparing.

Minoxidil and Finasteride are among the best-known active ingredients for hair loss – but they are not suitable for everyone. The differences show how important it is to consider the active principles in a differentiated manner.

What can conventional remedies do?

  • Minoxidil promotes blood circulation, but can cause skin irritation and loses its effect after discontinuation.
  • Finasteride affects hormone balance, with possible side effects on libido or mood.
  • Both active ingredients are not suitable for everyone – finasteride is not recommended for women in particular.

8T3 takes a different approach: with the soluble form of the CD83 protein, which acts locally on the hair root – microbiome-friendly, hormone-free, skin irritation-free – for topical use, twice weekly.

What makes 8T3 different.

8T3 is based on the protein CD83 – in a specially developed, soluble form (MAL-838). The approach is regenerative, scientifically sound, dermatologically supported, and consistently responsible. The differences between 8T3 and its competitors are not only measurable, they are noticeable.
