With hair loss impacting 42% of men, it’s no surprise that many are looking for supplementary solutions. While Finasteride and Minoxidil are the only two medications that have been clinically proven to treat hair loss, our Biotin supplement can help cultivate a healthier, stronger head of hair in the long run. But what is Biotin and how does it work?
What is Biotin?
Biotin, sometimes referred to as vitamin B7 or vitamin H, is a supplement often used to help promote a healthy and well-structured head of hair. Unlike many supplements in the hair loss space, Biotin is entirely natural, with regular consumption supporting the structure and strength of keratin all over the body, including within your hair. In fact, Biotin could also help to improve both your nails and skin. While Biotin has not been clinically proven to regrow hair or successfully treat hair loss, it can play a big role in enhancing the appearance and health of the hair already on your head. Those with a Biotin deficiency will often experience brittle and unhealthy hair, skin and nails, which can be changed with regular Biotin supplementation.
How does Biotin help hair loss treatment?
As mentioned, using Biotin on its own is not enough to have any impact on the rate of your hair loss. While it has been scientifically proven that Biotin supplementation can improve the infrastructure of keratin in the body (which in turn leads to healthier hair), Finasteride and Minoxidil are vital if you want to combat hair loss. This combination can help to improve the structure of your existing hair while putting a stop to a receding hairline or hair loss.
How do you use Biotin?
As with all our medications and supplements, we’ve made Biotin easy to slip into your daily routine. Arriving at your doorstep in discreet packaging, our Biotin supplement comes in a capsule form which should be taken once a day. We always suggest attaching consumption to one of your daily habits - such as brushing your teeth or eating meals - in order to keep up with your doses. Remember - consistent consumption is essential to any of our hair loss products, so always make sure to keep on top of your doses.
While Biotin may improve the structural quality of the hair on your head, it does not stop the miniaturisation or degradation of hair follicles. If you want to take action against male pattern hair loss, it’s essential to combine Biotin with Minoxidil and Finasteride in our Full Works treatment plan.
