Ducray Anaphase Neoptide Anti-Hair Loss and Root-Strengthening Serum 2x50 ml

When should you use the Anaphase Neoptide Anti-Hair Loss Serum?

Ducray Anaphase Neoptide Anti-Hair Loss and Strengthening Serum is a leave-in hair care product that is sprayed directly onto the scalp. It is intended for adult women and men experiencing moderate to severe hair loss that has developed gradually over several months, resulting in thinner, sparser hair. Its formula combines a patented extract of Lespedeza capitata, milk thistle fruit extract, and manganese in a fresh, non-sticky, fragrance-free lotion.

The serum acts first at the root: it slows hair loss and improves hair anchorage—that is, how firmly each hair is anchored to the scalp during brushing, styling, and washing. In a study of 61 people who applied the product daily, hair anchorage improved by 46% after two months. To compare the different approaches—shampoos, lotions, and supplements—our selection of hair loss treatments groups them by type of hair loss and application method.

Its second function focuses on the hair itself: the serum stimulates growth, restores volume to thinning hair, and promotes hair density. In an observational study involving 1,676 users, hair density, thickness, and volume increased by up to 50% after three months of use.

Dermatologically tested, the lotion is suitable for all scalp types and can be applied to a dry or damp scalp, allowing it to be used in the morning or after a shower. It can be used alone or in combination with a topical medication, and can also be used in conjunction with a hair transplant—on both donor and recipient sites—in accordance with the doctor’s or surgeon’s instructions.

We recommend using it in combination with Ducray Anaphase Shampoo for Chronic Hair Loss. The shampoo prepares the scalp: its creamy texture is massaged into the roots for a few minutes, then rinsed off, leaving the scalp clean and free of sebum and styling residue. The serum, applied afterward, remains on the scalp until the next wash and provides long-lasting benefits. Wash, then spray: these two steps complement each other without duplicating effort.

How do you apply this leave-in hair serum?

Directions for Use

Once a day, apply 8 sprays to a dry or damp scalp—2 sprays per part (center, right side, left side, and back)—then massage in with your fingertips to help it absorb, without rinsing. Attach the spray nozzle to the bottle and shake well before use; the same spray nozzle is used for both bottles.

Precautions

• For external use only, on the scalp. Do not swallow. Do not rinse after application.
• Avoid contact with the eyes; if the product comes into contact with the eyes, rinse thoroughly with clean water.
• Do not inhale the sprayed product: apply as close to the scalp as possible, in a well-ventilated room.
• Flammable product: Do not spray near a flame, cigarette, or heat source, and wait until the scalp has dried before using a high-heat hair dryer or flat iron.
• Do not use if you have a known allergy to any of the ingredients, or if you are allergic to plants in the Asteraceae family (milk thistle, chamomile, arnica, dandelion), as the formula contains milk thistle extract.
• Do not apply to an irritated, damaged, red, or flaky scalp, or to an open wound. Discontinue use if persistent tingling, itching, or redness occurs, and seek advice.
• For adults 18 years of age and older only.
• Pregnancy and breastfeeding: Consult a doctor or pharmacist before use, as there is no data on the use of this product in these situations.
• Hair transplant: Follow your surgeon’s instructions first and foremost, and do not apply to the transplanted area without their approval.
• If you are currently undergoing hair loss treatment, particularly with minoxidil: do not discontinue it or replace it with this serum without medical advice, as stopping such treatment may lead to a recurrence of hair loss.
• Sudden or excessive hair loss, patchy hair loss, hair loss accompanied by itching, redness, or flaking, or hair loss that does not stabilize after several months of regular use warrants a medical consultation. In women, hair loss associated with menstrual irregularities, unusual body hair growth, or severe fatigue also warrants a medical consultation.
• The list of ingredients may vary: check the list on the packaging of the product you purchased.
• Store away from heat and light, with the bottle tightly closed. Shelf life after opening: 12 months. Keep out of reach of children.

Our expert advice on Anaphase Neoptide for hair loss

At the counter, the most important question to ask before starting treatment is what type of hair loss you’re experiencing. This serum is designed for hair loss that has developed gradually; it does not replace the need to identify the cause when hair loss is sudden, localized, or accompanied by other symptoms. Another common misconception is to spray the product onto the hair rather than the scalp. It’s the root that matters, which is why it’s important to part your hair into four sections and massage it in thoroughly with your fingertips.

To assess the treatment’s effectiveness, evaluate it after three months of daily, uninterrupted use: the hair growth cycle is slow, and a three-week assessment is inconclusive. Taking a photo of the parting at the start, under the same lighting conditions, helps you assess the results without relying solely on the comb. For hair transplants, the timeline follows the surgeon’s schedule and continues for at least nine months.

FAQ

Can I replace my Neoptide Expert Anti-Hair Loss and Growth Serum with Ducray Anaphase Neoptide Anti-Hair Loss and Anchoring Serum?

Yes, it’s the same product under a new name, with the same EAN code and the same list of ingredients: Neoptide has simply been added to Ducray’s Anaphase line. Users accustomed to the old serum can continue their treatment without interruption.

How should I use Ducray Anaphase Neoptide Anti-Hair Loss and Strengthening Serum in conjunction with a hair transplant?

The recommended regimen begins 15 days before the procedure, with 8 sprays per day over the entire scalp, continuing until the day of the transplant. Four days after the procedure, the 8 sprays are applied to a compress, which is then gently pressed against the transplanted area for 15 days. Once healing is complete, resume application by gently massaging the serum into the transplanted area with your fingers for at least nine months. Each step is subject to the surgeon’s approval.

Can I style or wash my hair right after applying Ducray Anaphase Neoptide Anti-Hair Loss and Ancrage Serum?

You can style your hair once the lotion has been absorbed and the scalp is dry: the texture is not sticky. The product does not require rinsing: shampoo as usual, and applying it in the evening after your shower, on a damp scalp, is the simplest way to avoid interfering with your morning hair styling routine.
