Suggest Medication To Increase Hair Growth And Density

Hi, I am searching for a hair growth treatment. I came across Minoxidil on Internet. I need some medicine which would increase the density. I have read on few blogs that we can use Minoxidil on face as well to increase the facial hair like Beard and Mustache. Please suggest me if I can use Mintop foam 2%.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have to increase hair growth and density, well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to many reasons like genetic factor , fungal infection and hormonal changes. Sometimes hair fall occurs due to environmental changes as well. Need not to worry. You should start with Mintop 2% preparation. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may also prescribe supplements like Vitamin A ,Omega-3 and Vitamin E. You should take Indian gooseberry powder with water once a day and use olive for massage. You should avoid use of any hard cosmetics containing shampoo. Use finasteride preparations as well to increase hair density.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
