What is emu oil?
Emu oil is a natural oil derived from the fat of the emu bird, rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids with anti-inflammatory properties.
It is used in some hair regrowth products for its ability to penetrate deeply into the skin and deliver nutrients to the follicle level.
When paired with red light therapy, emu oil may improve absorption and enhance anti-inflammatory effects, creating a synergistic environment for hair regrowth.
