Regaine FoamHair loss in men is extremely common. You only have to look around you.

 

In the UK, 8 million men suffer some degree of hair loss with almost 40% of men showing noticeable hair loss by the age of 35.

The most common type of hair loss is hereditary hair loss, which is also referred to as ‘male pattern baldness’ or ‘androgenetic alopecia’. This accounts for 95% of cases of hair loss in men.

As the name suggests, hereditary hair loss is an inherited condition which becomes increasingly common with age. It is thought to be linked to the male hormone, androgen.

Regaine Foam is a great new way to deliver Minoxidil, which is a highy effective medicinal ingredient. In a clinical study, 9 out of 10 men who use Regaine Foam twice daily said that they kept or re-grew hair.

How to apply Regaine Foam

Hold the can vertically to dispense the foam

It may take up to 16 weeks of using Regaine Foam twice a day, every day before most men will see an improvement in their condition.

Heat from the scalp allows the foam to dissolve quickly. Once the foam is dissolved it is absorbed into the affected area.

Regaine Foam is non-messy and it only has to be applied twice a day – in the morning and in the evening.

Before new hair can begin to grow, old hair may need to come out. Don’t worry if this happens – it’s all part of the process and it shows that your treatment has begun to work. Simply continue to apply Regaine Foam morning and night everyday. It is important to remember that once you stop using Regaine Foam the treatment benefits will be lost.[egg id=”4″]

Regaine Foam can be used at all stages of hair loss, but there is a greater chance of success if you start using it in the early stages.

Minoxidil can promote hair regrowth in four different ways;

  1. Stimulates follicles to move from resting to growth phase
  2. Increases length of time in the growing phase
  3. Increases blood flow to the follicle
  4. Works to reverse follicle miniaturisation

 

What Causes Hereditary Hair Loss?

There are 3 main stages of the Hair Cycle:

 

3 Stages of the Hair CycleStage 1 – Anagen or ‘Growth’ phase:

  • Hair shaft diameter increases
  • Hair reaches maximum length
  • Lasts around 33 months

Stage 2 – Catagen or ‘ Transitional’ phase:

  • Hair begins to stop growing
  • Lasts around 2-3 weeks

Stage 3 – Telogen or ‘Resting’ phase:

  • Hair Stops growing completely
  • Hair shedding begins
  • Lasts around 5-6 weeks

In hair loss, hair follicles shrink or miniaturise causing

  • more hair follicles to enter the resting phase
  • the resting phase to last longer
  • the growth phase to get shorter
