Leading Topical Solutions

There are a great number of leading topical solutions that boast big claims on their ability to grow hair. There is an abundance of oral supplements, oils, creams and ointments that are said to treat baldness and hair thinning. Most of these ingredients are designed to attempt to stop hair loss by inhibiting the production of DHT—the key hormone responsible for baldness. Unfortunately there are currently only two FDA approved hair loss medications including Propecia and Minoxidil. Both are effective treatments but must be used for the duration of your life to maintain results. In addition to hair loss shampoo, some of the topical hair loss solutions available for usage include:

Rogaine
Tricomin
Folligen
Proxiphen
Retin-A

Other unapproved FDA options include chemical based medications and locations along with serious hair transplant surgery. Many people who suffer hair loss do not choose to use the chemical based medicines used due to some of its side effects. Many feel better relying on natural hair loss remedies that are part of a strict regimen of herbs, vitamins, & natural remedies.

Some of the more exotic compounds that have been found to be of some use in the battle against hair loss include the following.

Green Apples
Omega 3 Fatty Acids
Saw Palmetto Extract
Ginger
Aloe Vera

These are just some of the highlights of the more exotic treatments that some men use for hair growth. Green Apples contain a compound called polyphenol which can prop up “peach fuzz” or vellus hairs as well as terminal hair (hair that never stops growing) significantly. Omega 3 fatty acids are rich with anti-inflammatory properties and is useful in helping hair loss.

Ginger is rich with fatty acids that helps prevent premature hair loss and baldness. Saw Palmetto has been found to fight prostatic disease in men lowers the levels of DHT which is now targeted as the main cause of hair loss. Aloe Vera can help the scalp by healing and balancing the pH level of the scalp while cleansing the pores.
