A breakthrough in hair loss research
Cura, a biotechnology-driven wellness company, today announced the launch of its Peptide Hair Growth Serum—the first consumer product derived from a newly discovered class of bioactive peptides developed within its U.S. research program. The announcement marks a milestone in translating peptide-based hair research into large-scale consumer manufacturing.
Study Highlights
In a controlled internal study of 120 participants, Cura's peptide serum was associated with visible improvements in hair density and thickness, with 95% of users experiencing measurable changes within 90 days and an average 62% increase in hair count per square centimeter compared to baseline. Participants also reported improved pigmentation and reduced shedding across the study period.
"Peptide-based solutions represent a new frontier for non-invasive hair and scalp support."— Dr. Eliza Harper, Chief Scientific Officer at Cura
“Our team’s work centered on identifying messenger peptides that mimic the body’s natural signaling mechanisms,” Dr. Harper added. “By developing infrastructure to synthesize and stabilize them domestically, we’ve made it possible to deliver research-grade ingredients in a safe, consumer-ready format.”
From Lab Discovery to Scalable Formulation
Over the past two years, Cura's research division has focused on isolating short-chain peptide sequences capable of signaling follicular regeneration pathways. This discovery led to a proprietary blend of synthetic growth-factor analogues that can be stably produced and incorporated into a topical formulation. While similar peptides have appeared in early academic literature, Cura is the first company to manufacture these compounds at scale and introduce them in a consumer product.
Manufacturing & Composition
Each batch of the Peptide Hair Growth Serum is produced in GMP-certified U.S. facilities to help ensure purity, sequence integrity, and bioavailability. The serum combines five core peptides—including sh-Polypeptide-1 and sh-Oligopeptide-10—with botanical co-factors known to support hair appearance and scalp care.
Cura's internal laboratory data indicate the formulation remains stable for over twelve months and maintains over 98% peptide activity under controlled storage conditions. Beyond the immediate application, the platform is intended as a foundation for additional exploration into regenerative peptide technologies for skin and follicle biology.
Mission & Availability
“Our mission is to bridge the gap between laboratory innovation and accessible wellness technology,” Dr. Harper said. “By controlling every step—from peptide design to synthesis and formulation—we can move responsibly and transparently as this field evolves.”
The Peptide Hair Growth Serum is available now via Cura's official website.
