KilgourMD Introduces Biotech-Driven Shampoo and Conditioner

The biotech skincare market is projected to exceed $8.25 billion by 2031.

KilgourMD, a scalp health and hair growth brand founded by Stanford-trained dermatologist Dr. James Kilgour, has launched of a biotech-driven shampoo and conditioner. The products are inspired by customer feedback and anticipated to mark a new benchmark for scientific innovation in prestige haircare.

“I developed a shampoo and conditioner to complement the serums and optimize the full system,” said Dr. Kilgour. “Dandruff is a major source of inflammatory scalp stress, something I commonly see in my perimenopausal patients, so I created the shampoo to target that stress and work synergistically with our Prevention and Treatment Serums. Because protecting new hair is as important as stimulating growth, the conditioner helps protect against thermal, UV and mechanical damage and can be used as both a rinse-out and leave-in.”

Designed to be used in conjunction with the brand’s award-winning serum system, the new product duo delivers visible results typically reserved for professional or medical-grade formulations. The formulas leverage next-generation microbiome science, biotech actives and clinically validated concentrations to deliver visible, measurable improvements to scalp health and hair integrity.

Ingredient Profile

The KilgourMD Shampoo is one of the most scientifically advanced scalp treatments currently available in consumer haircare. The shampoo features a multi-mechanism system combining Cutibiome CLR, Patchoul’Up and Piroctone Olamine, each used at their full clinical-study concentrations. The formula rebalances the scalp microbiome, targets Malassezia-related flakes, normalizes excess sebum and visibly calms inflammation, addressing the root causes of dandruff, sensitivity, oiliness and irritation rather than masking symptoms.

It also achieves this without reliance on harmful actives such as zinc pyrithione, commonly found in drug store products, an ingredient banned in the European Union due to reproductive safety concerns. Additionally, the formula uses a sophisticated blend of SCI, sarcosinate, glucosides and betaine to cleanse effectively while supporting scalp barrier health.

The KilgourMD Conditioner delivers hydration, repair and strength, engineered for damaged, fine or thinning hair. The formula combines a unique suite of biotech actives used at clinically validated concentrations, including ResistHyal multi-weight hyaluronic technology, Silkgel Neo vegan silk, Kerashaft V bond-care peptides and a bio-fermented mineral complex. This advanced system penetrates the hair fiber, repairs micro-damage, strengthens keratin bonds and delivers long-lasting hydration without heaviness. Supporting ingredients such as panthenol, aloe, mineral ferments, and antioxidant resveratrol further enhance scalp comfort and hair vitality.

The KilgourMD Shampoo and Conditioner are now available on KilgourMD.com for $49 each.
