Minoxidil is a clinically proven treatment option most often used to treat hair loss. Applied as a topical foam or cream, it works by stimulating hair regrowth when applied to the scalp, and can be one of many tools available to getting back your seamless, full head of hair.
How Does It Work?

This is also seen to activate dormant hair follicles, stimulating growth around the area.
