Minoxidil And Face Aging- Is It True?

[raindog]

hey,

I'm about to start using Minixidil 5%, but i find a lot of horror stories about it causing wrinkels, dark circles under the eyes and skin aging.
It's so confusing- when you read doctor's opinion about it- they all say it's not causing any skin damage, on the other hand- in forums you find hundreds of stories of users who say minoxidil ruined their face... .
i'd rather be bald then look like an old man...do i have to choose between my hair and my face?
What's the "truth" about it?
Should i start using minoxidil?
What do you guys think?

Thanks

I haven't experienced any sides, been using it for 2months.




Bald makes you look old fyi lol.

I've been using minoxidil for my beard for almost a year now. Didn't notice any side effects.
Some people might think it makes your face look older but it's just the aging itself, not the minoxidil.

Don't use it. Minoxidil blocks the formation of hydroxylysin which is needed to produce collagen. collagen keeps your skin look healthy and young. after 6 months of usage I had to stop. My skin aged 10 years and still recovering.

Do you think that everyone experiences this?
