Just more bull **** like RU58841. Topicals overall suck for coverage and effectivness. They are only good for spot treating specific areas. That is unless of course you're able to dump the whole scalp in a solution .

finasteride is the best thing g we've got

in the 1st picture they used more light on the scalp than in the 2nd picture, in the 2nd picture the hair on top looks a little longer and is spread out so it covers the scalp more. Not a cure to me.

I'm not going to jump up and down and pop the champagne until I see a bald head in the 1st picture, and a head full of hair (under bright light) in the 2nd.

You are right but there does seem to be some regrowth. Also you can definetly say that he didnt lose more hair and thats in a 12 month period. For someone whose hairloss is so advanced that an accomplishment in itself

Doesn't take away from the fact topicals in general suck and are not effective as a stand alone.

finasteride is the only drug that provenEly works and can reverse the effects of miniturzation and strengthen the hair follicle effected. All these Topicals are bulls **** just like the effectivness of Rogaine .

Great, we're able to sprout peach fuzz or follicles equivellant to my arm pit hair in density

It's just another anti androgen, nothing special I think, sadly enough. Nothing that can beat minoxidil.
It makes me so mad, they always use different lights, like we're stupid not to notice that.

But if it can help maintain hair for those like me who did not respond to finasteride or dutasteride then its a miricle in itself.

Well I could say right off the bat this is wrong. I think the studies at it like 80 percent or so. Quite a large discrepancy for a site trying to sell a product based on science. The lowest number I see is 65 percent maintained or improved hair counts but that was a lot higher measured other ways. Which makes me wonder where 30-50 came from.

"The effectiveness of Propecia[SUP]®[/SUP] has been reported as varying from 30-50% in arresting hair loss"

5 year study
Investigator assessments: Physician investigators who evaluated the men treated with Propecia (n=279) and men on placebo (n=13) at the end of five years determined that 77 percent of the men treated with Propecia had increases in scalp hair, compared with 15 percent of men on placebo.
At the end of the fifth year, 65 percent of men taking Propecia (n=219) maintained or improved their hair count compared to their hair count at the start of the studies, while all of the men on placebo (n=15) lost hair count.

True that part was wrong, but the effectivness of propecia is overestimated. I for one did not stop losing hair and Ive been on it and dutasteride for a year. If this topical can succesfully block testosterone then it will be amazing

Doing a study doesn't mean much unless it was peer-reviewed and published in a reputable medical journal.

Was this one?

Otherwise you and i can say we did a study too. If we feel like it.

Lastly - you said it was approved. Approved by whom, for what exactly?

If it wasn't approved by the FDA to make claims for hair growth then "approved" is just a tricky word used by snake oil salesmen to deceive the public.

You are right. I could not find this information, but I posted the links maybe someone else can look into it.

Always sucks when you get your hopes up and then find out it is probably a hoax. I just thought it was more legit because it is a pharmacy

These pictures are rubbish as stated. It almost reminds of those TV adverts that advertise weight loss with before, and afters. Afters showing a sucked in stomach, bronzer and better lighting. :laugh:

The drug is suppoused to be a topical version of flutimide. Not sure you know what that is but it is the strongest Anti-androgen probably.

So if what they say is true then it would work great. I am questioning the legitimacy of the website tho, they did not post links to the studies from what I could tell

Been using it for 3 months with no sign of slowing my recession. Hasn't stopped the "male pattern baldness itch" in the areas I apply it, which is all I wanted it to do really.

Yup. Marginal effects at best. finasteride is systemic and obliterates 90% of enzyme activity that is responsible for hair loss. Yet you can still lose hair on it so I am always very sceptical about a topical as a stand alone treatment.

One study itself does not mean that much at times too. Replicating a study many times and in real life shows its validity. That's where dutasteride/finasteride remain untouched. Minoxidil is good too for what it does but that's at regrowing rather than stopping the androgens. And I haven't even bothered to look at whether this study itself is a worthy one.

what do you think of? Do you think it can work to slow hairloss or is it a scam entirely?
