    Conditioner: After shampooing, apply to hair — can be used from roots to ends or just mid-lengths and ends depending on your hair type. Leave for 2–5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

Built By The Dermatologist Who Specializes In Scalp Age

Dr. James Kilgour, MD, FAAD
Board-Certified Dermatologist · Trained at Oxford & Stanford · Published in JAMA Dermatology & JAAD

During his postdoctoral fellowship at Stanford, Dr. Kilgour spent two years researching topical drug development — the exact science of how active ingredients penetrate skin and reach the tissue underneath. It’s rare training. Most dermatologists never get it.

When he started seeing women in his own practice failing on minoxidil, supplements, and “just accept it” — he applied that same research to scalp aging. The result is the protocol Dr. Kilgour now uses with his own patients, and the one he’s matched you to based on your quiz answers.

What’s In Your Order

One serum reverses the scalp aging that’s killing your follicles. The other reactivates the dormant ones you still have. 60 seconds total. Once a day.

KilgourMD Shampoo
Step 1

The Shampoo — Less Hair In The Drain From The First Wash

Five actives that target the inflammation, the DHT, and the barrier collapse driving your shedding.

Lather on wet scalp, leave 2–5 min, rinse.

The fire under your scalp — the one that’s been telling your follicles to drop hairs that weren’t ready to fall — goes out. 74.5% less inflammation in 4 weeks. A plant complex from Manuka, Black Pepper, and Magnolia that does two jobs at once: calms the inflammation AND blocks the same enzyme prescription finasteride targets — 5α-reductase, the one that converts testosterone into the DHT shrinking your follicles. Plant-derived. Topical. Works during a normal wash.

That tight, slightly itchy feeling 2–3 hours after you wash — the one you’ve been calling “dry scalp” — stops happening. 39% sebum restored. 35% more natural moisture. 31% fewer flakes. Built specifically for menopausal scalp dryness, which isn’t dandruff — yours isn’t fungal. It’s sebum collapse from estrogen loss. Different condition, different ingredient. Patchouli-derived. Double-blind vs placebo.

More of your hairs stay in the growth phase instead of cycling out early. 7.9% more hairs growing at any moment. 7.7% thicker at the shaft. Anti-microbial that went head-to-head against ketoconazole — a prescription antifungal — for 6 months. Won. Inflammation cuts growth cycles short. This extends them.

The follicle cells that estrogen used to protect get protection again. Antioxidant from red grape skin that activates SIRT1 — a longevity enzyme your body makes less of after estrogen drops. Shields the follicle from oxidative damage while the other actives rebuild the structure underneath.

Old follicles start behaving like young ones. Reverses the dormancy markers (p21, p16) that shut follicles down. Suppresses the death signals (Caspase 3/9) that shrink them. 90%+ strand core penetration. A 2022 study on human follicle cells found Provitamin B5 wakes up the follicles your scalp had stopped using.

KilgourMD Conditioner
Step 2

The Conditioner — Volume That’s Still There At Dinner

Four ingredients that don’t exist in any other conditioner on the market.

Apply mid-length to ends, leave 2–5 min, rinse.

Volume that doesn’t sit on top of your hair pretending to be there — real volume, from inside the strand. 189x more moisture locked in. 48% volume boost. The first hyaluronic acid proven to actually get inside the hair cortex — 5.9x deeper than placebo, confirmed under Raman spectroscopy in 2024. Other conditioners coat. This expands the strand from within. Silicone weight on top eventually weighs hair down. Internal hydration doesn’t.

Strands that are physically thicker — measurable under an electron microscope. +17% thicker strands. 16% more water-resistant. Plant keratin from pea, rice, and soy that penetrates the cortex. Animal keratin just sits on the surface. This rebuilds the keratin matrix estrogen used to maintain — the matrix collapse is why your strands feel finer than they did at 35.

The damage from years of blow-drying, flat-ironing, and curling reverses. 72% thermal damage reversed. 83% pollution removed in one wash. Zero buildup — ever. Real silk protein — actual silk, grown by feeding plant starch to bacteria. Self-assembles into a breathable film around each strand. The protective layer estrogen used to maintain, rebuilt without silicone.

The minerals your hair stopped getting from the inside — now delivered from the outside, every wash. Five minerals — zinc, iron, copper, silicon, magnesium — in a form your cells absorb on contact. Fermented through yeast into a bioavailable structure. Every other mineral product uses inorganic salts that wash off. Your body sends minerals to your heart and liver first — your hair is at the back of the line. This skips the queue entirely.

The Clinical Results

KilgourMD’s wash protocol is built on nine clinically tested actives — each one evaluated in peer-reviewed research conducted by independent dermatological and cosmetic labs. Here’s what those studies measured.

A 74.5% reduction in scalp inflammation within 4 weeks — measured clinically on the same plant complex that targets the enzyme shrinking your follicles. The fire under your scalp goes out.

Scalp inflammation · Week 0 → Week 4

Study source: CutiBiome CLR clinical trial — 4-week measurement of inflammatory markers (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8). Plant complex from Manuka, Black Pepper, Magnolia.

189x more moisture retention inside the hair strand — the first hyaluronic acid proven to penetrate the cortex instead of sitting on the surface. Volume that doesn’t fade with silicone buildup because there’s no silicone.

Cortex hydration under microscope · Before → After ResistHyal

Study source: ResistHyal clinical, 2024 — moisture retention measured via Raman spectroscopy. 5.9x deeper cortex penetration vs placebo.

48% more volume at the root — not from coating or weight, but from strands physically expanding with internal hydration. The volume you lost when estrogen dropped, rebuilt from inside the strand.

Study source: ResistHyal clinical volumetric measurement. Tested on women 40+ experiencing volume loss.

64% reduction in strand breakage with every wash — plant keratin penetrates the cortex to rebuild the keratin matrix estrogen used to maintain. Less snapping when you brush. More strand survival in the shower.

Meet Dr. James Kilgour

Board-Certified Dermatologist · Stanford-Trained

Dr. Kilgour spent a year building this protocol after watching the same pattern repeat in his clinic — women in their 40s and 50s coming in with shedding scalps, getting sent home with thickening shampoos and biotin gummies, and coming back six months later with the same problem.

The science on scalp aging, sulfate-induced barrier damage, and menopausal sebum collapse had advanced dramatically in the last decade — but every shampoo on the shelf was still built for the hair women had at 30. Same sulfates. Same silicones. Same formula sold to a 16-year-old and a 56-year-old.

So he built something that wasn’t. Nine clinically tested actives. Zero sulfates. Zero silicones. Formulated specifically for the scalp biology that emerges after estrogen drops or GLP-1 medications kick in.
