Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at healthcaremagic
There is no cream to increase the hair growth.
Instead minoxidil 5 percent lotion can be used to increase hair growth.
It has to be applied twice daily on the affected area for atleast 3-4 months to see significant results.

Brief Answer:
Minoxidil can be used for scalp hair fall also

Detailed Answer:
Welcome back,

You can use Minoxidil lotion for hair loss on the scalp as well.

The dose is 1 ml twice daily to be applied on the affected areas of the scalp.
For the beard and moustache you can apply 0.5 ml of the lotion twice daily.
