Product Features
Minoxidil is the #1 treatment in the United States for Hair regrowth
Azelaic Acid - proven to be a strong inhibitor of the enzyme 5-AR (5-Alpha Reductase), the enzyme responsible for converting Testosterone into Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the primary reason for damaged shrunken follicles characteristic of Male Pattern Baldness (MPB)
Guaranteed Quality - Manufactured in an FDA registered cGMP compliant facility. We conduct assay testing, identity testing, and micro testing for each batch to ensure the concentration and active ingredient is present, within spec, and follows USP standards and FDA guidelines. Each batch will have its own unique lot number and expiration date printed onto the bottom of each bottle, as part of quality control procedures
Enhanced with Retinol (Vitamin A Derivative), found to work synergistically with Minoxidil and enhance its penetration while regulating scalp DHT levels through proper functioning and moderation of the sebaceous glands.
Glycerin - We do "Not" use Glycerin because according to the Merck Index (The largest Encyclopedia of chemicals, drugs, and biologicals published by the United States Pharmaceutical company Merck & Co.) , propylene glycol is a much better topical carrier compared to Glycerin. Propylene glycol is much more lipid soluble than Glycerin, this difference in solubility allows propylene glycol to dissolve in fats, oils, lipids, and solvents much easier, thus permeating through the skin much more effectively than glycerin. For this reason, propylene glycol is preferred over glycerin in many pharmaceutical and cosmetic preparations, including the FDA approved formula Rogaine who has always used propylene glycol over glycerin. A Glycerin based product may really limit your results as a smaller percentage of actives will be absorbed into the skin. Glycerin is also much more stickier and greasier on the skin than propylene glycol. Propylene glycol does pose some irritation for some users, however we have significantly reduced the amount of propylene glycol compared to standard minoxidil products in order to combat irritation.
Each product is professionally formulated in a FDA registered cGMP compliant facility to ensure safety, purity, and premium quality. Our minoxidil products contain only high-purity pharmaceutical grade ingredients, and must meet rigorous quality control specifications before they are released. Clinical studies have shown that higher concentrations of minoxidil result in a significantly increased amount of hair regrown compared to lower concentrations. In a study conducted, the 5% minoxidil had 45% more hair growth then the 2% minoxidil in a 48 week trial. This is the same for the higher 10% and 15% strength topicals. The higher concentration helps to recruit excess miniturized hair follicles not attainable from lower concentrated minoxidil products. Our topical minoxidil has also shown to be effective in treating hair loss on the entire scalp including the frontal areas, while Rogaine® has only shown to be effective on the crown (vertex) area. Azelaic Acid: Has been proven to be a strong inhibitor of the enzyme 5-AR( 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitor Type I and II). DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) is a by-product of testosterone, the male hormone. The scalp produces an enzyme known as 5-AR. When 5-AR reacts with testosterone, it is converted into DHT, which then binds to receptor sites on the scalp and follicle sending false signals to the functioning cells responsible for proper hair growth. This is the primary reason for damaged, shrunken follicles characteristic of MPB. Azelaic acid also has the ability to normalize improper growth of skin cells lining the hair follicle, leading to a reduction in the amount of hair shed on the scalp. The actual color of the solution is yellow, as the formula is newly enhanced with retinol. The natural color of Retinol is yellow, this does not in anyway change the effectiveness of the solution.
