Founded in 2023 by Stanford-trained, board-certified dermatologist Dr. James Kilgour, KilgourMD develops clinically grounded scalp treatment and prevention serums and recently launched a shampoo and conditioner. The brand centers on treating scalp aging as a root cause of hair thinning and offers a proprietary two-step scalp serum system whose trial showed 95% of participants had decreased shedding within six weeks and clinically meaningful regrowth by four months. KilgourMD reported profitability in 2025 and sells a bottle of scalp serum every 20 seconds, with more than one-third of customers recommending the products to others. Products are currently sold exclusively at kilgourmd.com. The company plans to expand its active ingredient pipeline, create new formulations, and run additional clinical trials focused on underserved populations.
