December 2024 in “Globus: an international journal of medical science, engineering and technology.” The study on Citrus aurantium (dalandan) peel oil demonstrated that a 10% concentration effectively promoted hair growth in shaved albino ICR mice, improving hair length and follicle count more than negative controls and 5% minoxidil. In contrast, a 100% concentration caused skin irritation and was less effective, suggesting potential dermal toxicity at higher doses.

The findings indicate that 10% C. aurantium peel oil could be a promising natural hair growth treatment, though further research, including human trials, is needed to verify its efficacy and safety.
