How to use Minoxidil?
For the best results in hair regrowth, most professionals recommend Minoxidil twice a day at regular intervals. However, the practitioners at Gro Clinics will work with you to determine the correct dose of Minoxidil prescription for your hair growth journey.
Step 1: Apply
Simply apply the prescribed dose to your scalp in areas experiencing hair loss. The hair and scalp must be dry upon application.
It is important to not use more than this dosage when applying. Additionally, the Minoxidil solution should not be used on other parts of the face or body.
Step 2: Massage
Once you have used the dropper to apply your dosage of Minoxidil, gently massage the solution into your scalp. Be sure to wash your hands after use and keep away from your eyes. Do not ingest the solution.
Your hair and scalp may feel sticky or greasy for a few hours after applying Minoxidil.
Step 3: Absorb
To ensure an effective hair growth treatment without compromising the Minoxidil solution, allow it to dry for 2-4 hours after applying.
During this time, it is important to not wash your hair or blow dry it. Both techniques will prevent more hair from growing efficiently.
What are the ingredients in Minoxidil?
Each Minoxidil topical solution contains the following:
- Minoxidil: The main ingredient in this prescriptive haircare product, Minoxidil targets hair follicles to stimulate growth for both men and women.
- Propylene Glycol: When added to haircare products, propylene glycol helps the hair to retain moisture. This prevents breakage and keeps the hair healthier. Additionally, propylene glycol distributes the other ingredients in this topical solution equally across the scalp for more even growth.
- Ethanol: Further hydration of the scalp and hair is provided with the addition of ethanol to Minoxidil topical solution.
Water: The main source of hydration in this product, the distribution and effectiveness of which is supported by both ethanol and propylene glycol.
