Avallon Avogen 5% solution - 50 ml

Product description: Avogain is a medicine used to treat hereditary hair loss for those aged 18 - 65 years, by preventing continued hair loss and helping in regrowth. The medicine contains the active ingredient minoxidil, known for its ability to help increase blood flow to hair follicles located in the scalp. Hereditary hair loss can be recognized as follows: Hair loss rate Gradually begins and continues. Having a family history of hair loss. No other symptoms appear with hair loss. Continuous use of Avogain: You may need to use this medicine twice daily for at least two months before new hair grows, due to slow hair growth. Initially, the hair may grow soft and smooth, but it gradually transitions to normal hair. Once the hair begins to grow again, you should continue using this medicine twice daily to complete hair growth. In clinical trials, 3 out of 5 men reported hair regrowth after 48 weeks of continuous use of this product. When stopping the use of the medicine, the hair that has regrown may disappear after 3-4 months, and the baldness/hair loss process will continue. If there is no improvement in hair growth after a year of use, treatment should be discontinued. If you feel anxious at any time during treatment, you should consult your doctor or pharmacist. Using Avogain spray pump: This device works best for applying the solution to a large area of the scalp. Remove the large outer cap and place it aside. After directing the pump toward the center of the bald area, press the pump once, and spread the solution with your fingers to cover the entire bald area. Repeat six more times, avoiding inhaling the spray mist. Contents of the package: The package contains 50 ml sufficient for one month of treatment, and the spray pump. Additional information about Avogain solution: Q: If my hair regrows with the use of Avogain, how will the new hair look?

Q: Can I use a hairdryer with Avogain spray? A: Yes, but not to dry the solution itself. Q: Can I use common hair styling products, like gel or spray, while using Avogain? A: Yes, but Avogain should be applied to a dry scalp before applying those products. Q: Can I dye my hair? A: Yes, you can. There is no need to change your hair care routine, but you should inform your hair specialist that you are using Avogain, and to reduce hair breakage, gently massage the scalp and use a wide-toothed comb with rounded teeth to avoid excessive pulling.
