Clinical studies provide solid proof of an active’s efficacy. But to fully understand its impact, you also need to grasp the user’s experience. How does the product fit into a routine? What effects are perceived over the weeks? Do they corroborate the clinical data? That is where consumer testing comes in.
Our team is proud to have contributed to a scientific publication in the Journal of Clinical & Investigative Dermatology, demonstrating the efficacy of USPlus® DERM (Valensa International), a lipidosterolic extract of saw palmetto, against hair loss.
The consumer tests enriched the study by bringing a field perspective, essential to connect clinical data with what people actually feel. Because beyond the numbers, it is also the user experience that validates a product.
