Apply minoxidil twice daily to a clean, dry scalp, using a dropper to distribute 1ml evenly over the affected area. Massage gently to promote absorption. Avoid excessive rubbing.
Results and Timeline
Hair regrowth varies significantly; some see noticeable results within 2-4 months, others may take longer or experience minimal improvement. Consistent application is key. Most studies show optimal results after 1 year of continuous use. Stopping treatment usually leads to hair loss resumption.
Potential Side Effects
Common side effects include scalp irritation, itching, dryness, and redness. Less frequently, individuals report unwanted hair growth on the face or other body parts. More serious, though rare, side effects include chest pain, rapid heartbeat, and dizziness. Consult your doctor immediately if these occur. Note that Minoxidil should not be used by pregnant or breastfeeding women.
