Medicinoplysninger

Beskrivelse

Minoxidil 20 mg/ml (2%) er en klinisk dokumenteret topisk behandling mod arveligt hårtab. Det virker ved at revitalisere formindskede hårsække og øge blodgennemstrømningen til hovedbunden for at stimulere vækst.

Selvom denne 2% koncentration er den standardanbefalede styrke til kvinder, er den også egnet til mænd. Den fungerer som en fremragende mulighed for mænd, der foretrækker at starte med en lavere dosis for at opbygge tolerance, eller for dem med en følsom hovedbund, som finder 5% formlen for irriterende.

Ingredienser

Minoxidil, propylene glycol, ethanol, purified water.

Bivirkninger

Irritation du cuir chevelu, rougeur, sécheresse ou démangeaisons légères.
Parfois : pousse de poils indésirable sur d’autres zones, ou chute temporaire des cheveux au début du traitement.
Cesser l’utilisation en cas de réaction allergique ou d’inflammation persistante.

Ofte stillede spørgsmål

How often do I need to apply it?

You should apply the lotion twice a day, every day. Skipping doses or stopping and starting will reduce its effectiveness. Applying more than 1 ml does not speed up growth but increases the risk of side effects.

Is this product suitable for men and women?

Yes. This 2% concentration is the standard choice for women to minimize side effects. However, it is also suitable for men who want to build up their tolerance slowly, or for men who experience skin irritation (like redness or itching) when using the stronger 5% lotion.

Can I use this if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?

The use of Minoxidil is not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, stop the treatment and consult your doctor.

What happens if I stop using the lotion?

If you stop the treatment, the new hair growth will likely be lost within 3 to 4 months, and the hair loss will resume its previous course. Continuous use is necessary to maintain the results.

Can I use hairspray or styling mousse?

Yes, you can. However, you should apply the Minoxidil first and allow it to dry completely before applying any styling products. This ensures the medication is properly absorbed into the scalp.
