What is Biohack technology? How m.lab delivers unprecedented anti-hair loss results

The latest innovation from Montibello Haircare, m.lab, is a revolutionary anti-hair loss range that takes a targeted approach to the two main types of hair loss: hereditary and reactive.
Its power lies in Biohack Tech, a skincare-inspired technology that works at a cellular level. It reprogrammes the biological mechanisms that trigger hair loss and reactivates those that stimulate growth and longevity.

The result is a professional and at-home routine with proven efficacy: up to 89% less hair loss, more than 13,000 new hairs, and hair that is visibly denser and stronger.

“Biohack Tech has completely transformed the way we address hair loss: it’s a technology that understands the follicle’s biological language and reprogrammes it to reverse the processes that lead to shedding”, explains Christian Vendrell, owner of Identity salon in Valencia.

Two types of hair loss, two intelligent formulas

Hereditary hair loss: exosomes for hair care

Of genetic origin, hereditary hair loss is typically linked to hormonal factors, premature ageing and family predisposition.

m.lab responds with an energising and stimulating formula designed to slow progressive hair loss, improve hair anchorage and increase hair density.

Key active ingredients:

• Exosome peptides from turmeric stem cells: block premature transition to the shedding (catagen) phase and extend hair longevity.

• Caffeine: stimulates blood flow to the scalp, improving follicle nourishment.

• Ginger extract: powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory.

• Vegan Collagen Complex: a regenerative complex that improves hair quality and structure.

• Oleanolic acid: inhibits the 5-α-reductase enzyme, reducing the hormonal action that causes hair loss.

• Apigenin: a flavonoid that boosts microcirculation.

• Niacinamide: combats follicle ageing.

“For the first time, we’re seeing the use of exosomes — highly precise cellular actives — in haircare formulas. Combined with key skincare ingredients such as niacinamide or oleanolic acid, M.LAB works directly on the scalp, addressing the biological root of hair loss with unprecedented efficacy”, says Mari Cruz Sancho, founder of Bamboo salons in Zaragoza.

Reactive hair loss: the battle against cortisol

Reactive hair loss is triggered by specific situations such as stress, fatigue, hormonal changes (postpartum, menopause), nutritional deficiencies or external aggressions.

m.lab offers a strengthening and balancing formula that restores the scalp’s hormonal balance and protects the follicle from cortisol and free radicals.

Key active ingredients:

• Ashwagandha: an adaptogenic plant that enhances the scalp’s resilience to physical and emotional stress.

• Spirulina: a natural antioxidant that protects the follicle from cortisol-induced atrophy and improves hair circadian rhythms.

• Menthol: cooling and soothing, it calms inflammation and stimulates microcirculation.

• Inulin: a prebiotic that promotes a balanced scalp microbiome.

• The formula also includes oleanolic acid and apigenin.

“Cortisol, known as the stress hormone, has a direct impact on follicle health. Ingredients such as ashwagandha and spirulina help regulate its effects in the body, reducing inflammation and protecting the hair cycle from imbalance”, notes Víctor Ballestero, director of Ballestero Estilistas in Segovia.

A bioactive, skin-inspired routine

The m.lab range is structured around three steps — prepare, activate and strengthen — with vegan, dermatologically tested formulas containing up to 90% ingredients of natural origin.

In addition, the exclusive in-salon ritual combines exfoliation, active concentrate and red LED light to enhance active ingredient penetration and stimulate follicular activity.

The results are visible from the very first session: greater thickness, more volume and significantly reduced hair loss, with clinically proven benefits in just 140 days.

Montibello is an exclusively professional brand, available only in hair salons.
