The Future of Melatonin Skin Care
The Future of Melatonin Skin Care In the world of science, there needs to be more research done to fully understand melatonin and its true benefits. (Even the exact reasons why it helps us fall asleep are unclear, per Akridge). There's potential for melatonin to expand into other aspects of beauty given that skin and hair follicles are melatonin receptive. For her part, Shamban is already testing new serums at the Hair Rejuvenation Center at Ava MD in Beverly Hills.

There's even some early research that shows melatonin could slow down the growth of tumors, as well as help with DNA repair. Lorencin says that she would like to see this explored more — and we'd have to agree.
