Follinox 5% 60ml Topical Solution – Minoxidil Hair Regrowth Treatment for Men & Women

Description

Follinox 5% Topical Solution (60ml) is a clinically proven hair regrowth treatment formulated with 5% Minoxidil, a trusted active ingredient for male and female pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia).
It works by stimulating hair follicles, increasing blood circulation to the scalp, and extending the hair’s natural growth phase, resulting in visibly thicker and fuller hair over time.
Regular use helps slow down hair loss, revitalize weak follicles, and promote new hair growth, making it ideal for both men and women experiencing early to moderate hair thinning.

Quick Tips

✅ Use consistently for best results — irregular use may reduce effectiveness.
✅ Expect initial hair shedding in the first 2–6 weeks — this means new hair is pushing out old weak strands.
✅ Maintain a healthy scalp and diet (iron, zinc, and biotin help support growth).
✅ Combine with a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo.
✅ Continue long-term use to maintain regrown hair — stopping treatment may reverse results.
