Where To Buy Minoxidil For Hair Loss in Malaysia (Pharmacies & Clinics)

 

 

If you have done some research online to cure hair loss, you may have heard of minoxidil. How does it actually work to overcome hair loss problems? Well, minoxidil helps blood circulation to the hair follicles and increase follicular size and hair shaft diameter, stimulating and prolonging hair growth. Popular brands include Rogaine, Regaine, Kirkland, and Regro.

There are several types minoxidil amounts found in products. There is the FDA-approved 5% minoxidil, and the 2% minoxidil. Both are clinically proven to help regrow hair, depending on the severity of hair loss and gender. The reason the lower concentration (2%) is recommended for women is that there is a higher possibility for some women, or people who have longer hair, to have the medication dribble down onto the face or the hands and is not washed away properly. This would pose a health risk. Thus, it is less risky for those who use the 2% concentration of the drug, as opposed to the 5% concentration that is designed for men. Not only that, a certain amount of Minoxidil is absorbed systemically from the scalp for different individuals, which means there is a lower limit for women to absorb the drug. Instructions to use are easy, as the product can be applied twice a day to the hair loss area on the scalp. Another advantage of minoxidil is that results can be seen as soon as 2-4 months. However, continuous use of this product is necessary in order to maintain hair regrowth.
