Topical Treatments to
stop Hair Loss and support Hair Growth
There is a proliferation
of topical treatments for hair loss out there in the
market. I will talk only about the ingredients that
are supported by scientific studies.
By far the most popular
topical application that was first introduced into the
market as a prescription application approved by FDA
- minoxidil , commercially branded
as Rogaine. Today it is available over
the counter.
Details of minoxidil is extensively presented
on another page in this website.
Other ingredients supported
by scientific studies specifically for hair growth are
copper peptide and glycogen. These
can be purchased considerably cheaper because they are
not patented by a large drug company as it is for minoxidil.
In fact anectdotal feedback suggest that they work at
least as well as minoxidil in encouraging a healthy
head of hair. My source comes from Tricoaid. Further
information can be obtained from the relevant
page on copper peptides and glycogen to encourage hair
growth.
