When it comes to treating male pattern hair loss, two medications stand out - Finasteride and Minoxidil. At Sons, our topical spray combines these two clinically-proven medications to give you the best possible chance of combatting male pattern hair loss. Below, we explain everything you need to know about this spray to help you decide if it’s an ideal solution for you.
Who is the spray for?
Sons’ topical Finasteride-Minoxidil spray is a suitable alternative for those who can’t stolerate oral Finasteride, or who don’t like the idea of taking tablets. It consists of two medications that are regularly used to treat male pattern hair loss - Finasteride and Minoxidil. With consistent application over several months, you could give yourself a good chance of seeing progress in terms of hair growth on your scalp.
What are the main ingredients?
The two primary ingredients in our spray - as the name suggests - are Finasteride and Minoxidil. Both are FDA-approved medications used to treat male pattern hair loss and achieve the best results when used in tandem. In fact, a 2004 study concluded that both Finasteride and Minoxidil were effective and safe in treating mild to severe AGA (or male pattern hair loss). As such, they form a crucial part of Sons’ hairless treatment plans.
In addition to Finasteride and Minoxidil, our spray contains glycerol, alcohol, patchouli oil, and tea tree oil. Tea tree oil, in particular, has been proven effective at maintaining healthy and moisturised hair, which in some cases, can help it grow and reduce the impact of hair loss. When used correctly, our topical spray gives you an excellent chance of combatting hair loss caused by male pattern hair loss.
How does it work?
We have designed our spray to make it as easy to use as possible. You should apply it to the affected areas of your scalp once each day. Once applied, the Finasteride in the spray reduces the levels of the DHT hormone that has attached itself to your hair follicles. By lowering the levels of DHT in your hair, Finasteride enables your hair follicles to regrow.
Minoxidil, on the other hand, increases blood flow to the affected areas of your scalp. When used in combination with Finasteride, Minoxidil helps to increase the blood flow to your scalp, providing damaged hair follicles with vital nutrients and oxygen. When used in tandem like this, the medications give you the best possible chance of combatting hair loss.
