Hair Loss Medicine

Rogaine (Minoxidil)

Rogaine is a hair loss medicine that is safe for both men and women suffering from miniaturization or thinning. It’s an FDA-approved topical solution or foam that you can purchase over the counter in either a 2 percent or 5 percent concentration. The key ingredient in Rogaine is minoxidil, which enlarges the hair follicle and restarts the growth cycle.

Other Non-Surgical Treatments

If neither of these hair loss medicines sounds like a solution for you, HT&RC offers other non-surgical treatments for hair loss: Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT).

Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)

LLLT is a hair loss therapy that uses infrared light to stimulate wound healing, mitochondrial DNA, and cytokine recreation. The FDA-approved non-surgical procedure using the Capillus 272 laser cap has been found to increase hair thickness and hair count in both men and women. Patients wear the laser cap for 20-30 minutes about three times per week. The battery-rechargeable cap can be worn while doing other activities and the cap has a 5-year warranty.
