January 2014 in “Journal of Dermatology and Venereology” The plant extract may help prevent hair loss by reducing inflammation and promoting hair growth.
April 2026 in “Clinical Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology” The study investigates the effects of Myrtus communis leaf extract on gene expressions in human keratinocytes (HaCaT cells), focusing on its potential benefits for hair loss and wound healing. The extract, containing 1255 ppm total phenolic substances, was found to significantly downregulate IL-1α and upregulate VEGF gene expressions in treated cells. These changes suggest that M. communis may contribute to healing effects in non-cicatricial hair loss and chronic wounds, as noted in traditional medicine. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms involved.
