Abstract

The present invention relates to the use of a composition comprising at least one peptidic fava bean extract as an active agent capable of limiting hair loss, and/or stimulating its growth. Moreover, the composition is intended, on one hand, to modulate the Clock, Perl and Bmal1 genes in the dermal papilla cells, and, on the other hand, to restore the circadian rhythm and resynchronize the biological clock of said cells. Finally, the present invention relates to several methods of non-therapeutic cosmetic treatment using said composition.
