How it works

 It penetrates the root to help stop hair thinning, reactivate inactive follicles,  whilst strengthening and revitalising the hair follicle to grow new, thicker hair

Minoxidil is the only clinically proven treatment for female pattern hair loss and  it’s the active ingredient in Regaine for Women Solution and helps to promote  hair growth in 4 ways:

1.Reverses miniaturisation of follicles

2.Increases blood flow around follicles

3.Stimulates follicle movement from resting to hair growth phase

4.Extends each follicle’s growth phase

During the first few weeks of use, there may be a temporary increase in hair  shedding. This is a good sign and means that the new hair growth cycle is  beginning! If the shedding lasts longer than 2 weeks, stop using the product and  talk to your doctor

How To Use Regaine Solution For Women

Wash your hands thoroughly before applying the REGAINE^® for women solution

Ensure both the hair and scalp are completely dry before applying.

Choose one of the applicators and dispense a 1ml dose to the total affected area twice a  day.

Massage the solution lightly into the affected areas of the scalp 

Wash your hands thoroughly after applying the solution.

But it is important you keep applying your Regaine morning and night, like you would brush  your teeth, so you can see results. For Regaine^® for Women solution to work effectively,  continued use daily is necessary. Exceeding the recommended dose will not regrow your hair  any quicker and you will have an increased likelihood of getting side-effects.
