SURFACE Awaken Therapeutic Scalp Elixir for Thinning Hair — 4 fl oz, Botanical DHT Support & Scalp Nourishment

Surface Awaken Therapeutic Scalp Elixir is a concentrated, botanical scalp serum designed to nourish the scalp, help reduce DHT activity and support the appearance of fuller, stronger hair.

Formulated for people experiencing thinning hair, seasonal shedding, postpartum loss, or scalp irritation, this 4 fl oz elixir blends plant extracts, minerals and amino acids to revitalize the scalp environment. It’s a drug‑free formula (minoxidil free) intended to be used as part of the Awaken Therapeutic System to maximize results: apply before shampooing or layer under treatments to improve nutrient delivery to follicles.

How does this elixir support a healthier scalp?

The formula combines botanical DHT blockers, essential micro minerals and amino acids to nourish and rejuvenate the scalp tissue and follicles. Ingredients like saw palmetto and sandalwood work alongside minerals like zinc and copper to create a balanced environment that supports cellular renewal.

• Botanical DHT blockers (e.g., saw palmetto) to help limit 5‑alpha‑reductase activity.
• Essential Micro Minerals—zinc, copper, silica, magnesium—for scalp and follicle support.
• Amino acids such as lysine to provide protein building blocks for repair.
• Sandalwood, mint and capsicum to stimulate circulation and deliver a cool/warm scalp sensation.

When and how should I use the Awaken Scalp Elixir?

For best results, use the elixir prior to shampooing or before applying other Surface Awaken treatments. Mist the wet or damp scalp, massage for about a minute to help penetration, then proceed with shampooing; for daily maintenance you can also apply a few drops to dry or damp scalp and leave on.

• Use before shampoo: wet scalp, mist, massage one minute, then shampoo.
• Layer under Awaken Therapeutic Treatment to aid nutrient delivery.
• Daily spot application: a few drops to affected areas; do not rinse when used as leave‑on.
• Drug‑free formulation suitable for routine use with other Surface products.

What visible benefits can I expect and how does it work with styling?

Awaken is designed to promote the appearance of thicker, fuller hair while strengthening fragile strands. Flexible amaranth protein and botanical actives help fortify hair structure and add light hold, making hair easier to style and protecting fine strands during blow drying.

• Visibly thickens hair appearance with flexible amaranth protein.
• Strengthens fine hair and adds medium, flexible hold for styling.
• Helps protect fragile strands during heat styling when used as part of the regimen.
• Non‑sulfate, paraben‑free, gluten‑free, and PETA certified for conscientious users.

Are there ingredients I should be aware of or avoid?

Surface prioritizes safety and environmental responsibility with a clean‑label approach. The product avoids common irritants and consumer concerns—no sulfates, parabens, gluten, phthalates, DEA/TEA or PVP/VA—while relying on plant extracts, minerals and amino acids for function.

• Free from sulfates, parabens, phthalates, gluten, DEA and TEA.
• Minoxidil‑free (drug‑free) — uses botanical 5‑alpha‑reductase blockers instead.
• Contains active botanical extracts (saw palmetto, sandalwood, mint, capsicum).
• PETA certified and formulated with environmental considerations in mind.

Who is this for? Surface Awaken Therapeutic Scalp Elixir is created for adults seeking a non‑drug, botanical‑forward approach to improve scalp health and the look of thinning hair. It suits people with seasonal or stress‑related shedding, postpartum thinning, irritated or oily scalps, and anyone wanting to boost the performance of the complete Awaken Therapeutic System—Shampoo, Conditioner, Elixir and Treatment—for a targeted scalp care routine.
