Time to read 3 min
Make the Most of Aspalathus linearis (Rooibos) Extract:
Anti-Inflammatory Properties: Calms and soothes the scalp, reducing inflammation and irritation that can contribute to hair loss.
Antioxidant Rich: Protects hair follicles from oxidative stress, helping to prevent damage and promote healthy hair growth.
Strengthens Hair: Fortifies hair strands from the root, reducing breakage and promoting thicker, more resilient hair.
Improves Scalp Health: Supports overall scalp health by reducing dryness and flakiness, creating an optimal environment for hair growth.
Origin and Description:
Aspalathus linearis, commonly known as Rooibos, is a plant native to South Africa, traditionally consumed as a herbal tea. In skincare and haircare, Rooibos extract is prized for its rich antioxidant content, including aspalathin and nothofagin, which are known to combat free radicals and protect against environmental stressors. Rooibos is also naturally anti-inflammatory, making it an excellent ingredient for soothing irritated or sensitive skin and scalp. When used in haircare, Rooibos extract helps to strengthen hair from the roots, reduce breakage, and support healthy hair growth. Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties also contribute to a healthier scalp, which is essential for preventing hair loss and encouraging new growth.

Frequently Asked Questions
I’ve had stubborn cystic, hormonal acne for years. Can Revoderm help with that?
Absolutely! Acne is one of the top concerns our customers have online or in our clinic. Our specialists and dermatologist will help with a customized online consult and treatment plan.
Can you help with other medical skin conditions, like eczema and psoriasis?
Our private consults can help with acne, anti-aging, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, rosacea, and hair loss. If you suspect you have another issue, contact your local dermatologist.
Do I have to part with all of my existing skincare products?
We get it–you invested your time and money on your current skincare routine. However, in order for us to fulfill our promise to you and help you achieve your best skin possible, you must follow our recommendations, which includes products, routine, and prescriptions. We want to make sure everything you’re putting on your skin is working for, and not against, you.
If I get a topical prescription from the dermatologist, can I still use Revoderm skincare products?
Definitely! Revoderm formulas are all medical-grade and developed by a dermatologist, which means they work in harmony with Rx products. (You can’t say the same for random OTC/department store skincare.)
