HALOS™: A Multi-Pathway Approach to Hair Thinning

HALOS™ is Koru Pharma’s hair and scalp technology, combining proprietary KORU–AHL peptides with targeted supporting ingredients to address five interconnected factors associated with follicle function, scalp condition and hair structure.

Hair thinning is multi-factorial. HALOS™ is multi-pathway.

Healthy-looking hair depends on more than a single biological process. Follicle signalling, the hair growth cycle, scalp balance and structural support all contribute to the environment in which hair develops and is maintained. HALOS™ brings these factors together in one integrated technology platform.

Five interconnected pathways, one integrated system

Instead of focusing on a single factor associated with hair thinning, HALOS™ combines targeted signalling support with scalp optimisation and structural reinforcement — five pathways involved in follicle activity, hair growth conditions, and structural support.

1 Hair Follicle Regulation

Helps keep hair follicles functioning normally, reducing the visible signs of hair thinning

2 Anagen Phase

(Hair growth phase)

Supports a longer, more sustained growth phase, contributing to improved hair density and reduced shedding

3 Lipid Balance

Regulates sebum levels and maintains scalp hydration, creating a balanced scalp environment

4 Oxygenation & Microcirculation

Enhances blood circulation and nutrient delivery to hair follicles, helping improve hair growth conditions and overall hair vitality

5 Structural Follicle Support

Reinforces follicle anchoring and extracellular matrix structure, improving hair strength and resilience

The ingredient system behind HALOS™

HALOS™ combines targeted peptide signalling with structural and scalp-supporting components to act across multiple pathways involved in hair and scalp condition.

1. KORU–AHL 01 & 02 Peptides

Targeted follicle signalling

Proprietary peptides designed to support balanced signalling associated with follicle activity and hair growth conditions.

2. Biotin

Scalp balance & keratin support

Supports normal keratin formation, scalp balance and the structural quality of the hair.

3. Type XVII Collagen

Follicle anchoring & structural support

Supports the structural environment surrounding the follicle and helps maintain follicle anchoring.

4. Dexpanthenol

Hydration & scalp conditioning

Helps maintain scalp hydration and a well-conditioned environment around the follicle.

How HALOS™ supports hair & scalp health

BMP-related signalling is one of the biological pathways associated with the regulation of follicle activity.

KORU–AHL Peptides 01 & 02 are designed to help rebalance BMP-related activity, supporting normal follicle function and a more favourable environment for healthy-looking hair.

Rather than approaching hair thinning through a single pathway, these proprietary peptides form part of the broader HALOS™ system, working alongside scalp and structural support components.

Featuring KORU–AHL peptides

KORU–AHL peptides are specially designed to help rebalance signalling in the scalp associated with hair thinning. They support the regulation of BMP-related activity, helping maintain normal follicle function and favourable conditions for healthy hair.

KORU–AHL peptides help reduce overactive BMP-related activity, helping restore normal follicle function and supporting improved hair density and reduced shedding.
