Dr. Vanita Rattan Anagen Boost Hair Tonic 30ml, for thinning & brittle hair [double sized bottle to original 15ml version].
Can help to: stimulate hair growth, increase hair density, reduce hair loss and inflammation on the scalp.
When used as part of the Dr. Vanita Rattan Hair Range 5 product routine, your hair is likely to feel silkier, thicker and easier to detangle, with less frizz and fewer split ends (as per the 4 week consumer trial).
It can help stimulate hair growth, increase hair density, reduce hair loss and inflammation in the scalp.
Capixyl™ contained in the product is a biomimetic signal peptide (acetyl tetrapeptide-3) combined with a red clover extract rich, working synergistically on DHT modulation via the inhibition of 5-α reductase. Niacinamide (vitamin B-3) makes your hair grow thicker and stronger.
Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract stimulates cells to regenerate and inhibits inflammation.
Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 strengths hair and stimulates collagen production for better hair follicle anchoring.
Calcium Gluconate reduces inflammation and hold water in the scalp to create a healing environment.
Arginine improves bloody supply to the scalp which reduces hair loss and adds volume to the hair.
Wheat Germ Extract prevents dryness and gives shine to hair from the follicle.
For women & men, age 20+ with thinning, brittle hair from ageing and damage over time.
Not ideal for persons with greasy hair.
Not for persons with a history of reactions to topical skin/hair products or overly dry/sensitive/damaged skin.
What is happening to your hair with age?
In females, by the mid-30s, there is a reduction in oestrogen levels. Oestrogen protects the hair root from the hormone testosterone.
This process speeds up at menopause and 40% of those by 70 years of age have female pattern hair loss.
The increased testosterone effect leads to thin, brittle hair, with premature hair loss.
To slow this process, you need to:
- Stimulate hair follicles.
- Improve the health of the scalp so strong, vibrant hair can grow.
- Supply the scalp with essential nutrients.
- Strengthen existing hair to prevent breakage.

1. How long do Dr. V Hair Range products last for?
This will vary for each product and person, however, if usage guidelines are followed, the average duration may be 6-12 weeks approx.
2. Is the Hair Range suitable for pregnancy & breastfeeding?
Yes.
3a. Is the Hair Range suitable for an oily scalp?
If moderately oily you can try the range, but avoid if very oily.
3b. Is the Hair Range suitable for dandruff?
The hair range may help with moderate dandruff, but it is not sufficient for severe dandruff.
3c. Is the Hair Range suitable for dry/itchy scalp?
The Anagen Boost Hair Tonic is not suitable in this case, but the other Hair Range products are.
3d. Is the Hair Range suitable for colour dyed / bleached hair?
Yes, and it would be actively beneficial for this, to renourish and rebuild the hair strand damaged by the above.
4a. Can you use the Hair Range whilst using other Dr. V or 3rd Party skin products on the face / body.
Yes.
4b. Can you mix & match the Hair Range with 3rd party haircare products?
You would not need to use any other cosmetic treatment products on the scalp/hair, as the Dr. V Hair Range has all the active ingredients you need.
If prescribed scalp medications are being used, please wait until finished before starting/resuming Dr. V Hair Range.
5a. Can I use the Hair Range whilst on Isotretinoin/Roaccutane?
No, please wait until 6 months after completion to use Dr. V Hair Range.
5b. Can I use the Hair Range whilst on Red Light Therapy (RLT)?
Please wait 24 hours before applying the Hair Tonic to the scalp after RLT, and only if the scalp is not feeling sensitive.
6. Can I apply Hair Range products during the day?
Yes the product range is safe to wear during the day (as opposed to hyperpigmentation kits, which are not).
7. Which products go on the scalp and which on the whole hair strand?
SCALP: Shampoo*, Tonic.
HAIR: Conditioners, Oil.
*The Shampoo is for direct application to the scalp, not for all of the hair strand. The reason we suggest this is to not the strip the hair of moisture; surfactants in the shampoo remove grime & dirt, but on the hair strand this can be drying (all shampoos).
8. Why does the range contain sulfates/sulphates (same)?
We have no general concerns with sulfates (nor is there sufficient evidence to support this), it depends on the type and how they are used.
For example, Sodium Laureth Sulfate is used safely and effectively in our Shampoo as an excellent cleaning agent, which helps to clear the scalp of grime to allow hair to grow. This is substantially different from Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, which we do not recommend.
9. How long does it take to see results?
The timeline below may be broadly applicable to most users:
Immediately (1-3 uses): Hair is easier to detangle, feels smoother/silkier and looks shinier.
After 4 weeks: hair feels thicker, split ends reduced, frizz reduced.
For enhanced benefits, particularly hair length, strength and new growth, combine with Dr. V Collagen Boost and use consistently.
"Since giving birth to my second child, my hair thinned out so much. This Tonic is definitely helping my hair to recover and it doesn't feel as fragile as it once did. I was left with a bigger bald patch that is now growing back in." - Dena C
