5% Minoxidil in Carrier Lotion


HLCC made Minoxidil better by:

  • Providing a dropper, for direct application to the scalp not the hair
  • Scalp Therapy DEX provides for much better penetration
  • Carrier Lotion reduces common irritation by reducing Alcohol and Propylene Glycol
  • Carrier helps penetrate in the hair follicle
  • 1 time a day not 2 for better compliance & great morning hair
  • Plus-Higher strength, 10% & 15% Minoxidil + Saw Palmetto provides much better results we have proven in our 115+ clinics

Minoxidil does not dissolve in water - only alcohol and propylene glycol. As the concentration of Minoxidil is increased, so is the amount of alcohol and propylene glycol. To get the benefit of increased strength without irritation, dryness, and itching, Carrier lotion was developed to help neutralize the alcohol in Minoxidil, allowing for better penetration and less irritation and dryness of the scalp.

Carrier lotion is the result of years of research and development. The carrier lotion maintains Minoxidil in a liquid state longer allowing it to penetrate down into the follicle where it will have the maximum effect on the growth of the hair shaft.

Use of the carrier lotion allows you to use less Minoxidil to achieve a larger effective dosage level by converting it into a liquid that is more easily absorbed. Pharmacia & Upjohn Company recommends using 2ml of Minoxidil daily but because of the improved delivery system, the amount of Minoxidil needed was significantly reduced (by 50%) to 1ml daily.

Better Penetration- Scalp Therapy DEX dissolves sebum, allowing for better penetration. Minoxidil only works at the dermal papilla level, not on the scalp, so if it can't penetrate, it can't work. Less Irritation- Carrier is the product which neutralizes the alcohol in Minoxidil, allowing for better penetration, less irritation and dryness of the scalp.

HLCC has been using Minoxidil/Rogaine since its introduction in the 1980's.

What Hinders Minoxidil from Working Well?

Sebum from sebaceous gland blocks the hair follicle. Minoxidil therefore, cannot penetrate through the sebum as easily to get to the dermal papilla (where hair growth occurs).

Minoxidil / RogaineŽ (which can contains up to 70% alcohol) stays on the surface causing, in many cases, irritation and itching of the scalp and drying of the hair shaft.

Minoxidil works at the dermal papilla, not on the scalp surface.

Limited Penetration = Limited Results!

How Did We Improve Minoxidil?

HLCC Scalp Therapy Dex breaks up and dissolves sebum - After Dexpanthenol has hydrated the outer layer and dissolved the sebum, Minoxidil in carrier solution penetrates down to the dermal papilla. Remember, Minoxidil only works at the dermal papilla level, not on the scalp, so if it can't penetrate it can't work to re-grow hair.

Carrier Solution is a product which neutralizes the alcohol and propylene glycol in Minoxidil, while maintaining it in a liquid state, allowing for better penetration, less irritation, and dryness of the scalp. Use of the carrier lotion allows you to use less Minoxidil to achieve a larger effective dosage level by converting it into a lotion that is more easily absorbed.

Because of the improved delivery system, the amount of Minoxidil needed was significantly reduced (by 50%) to 1ml daily. This is a wonderful product for helping give you the apperence of thicker, fuller looking hair.

It is considered that the user has read and agreed to this disclaimer, when one uses the literature on this site and the online treatment option. HLCC makes no claims any of the laser or products it sells. The US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) clearance for the medical laser device, the HairMax LaserCombs is now clinically proven to promote hair growth in males with androgenetic alopecia (Norwood IIA to V with Fitzpatrick skin types I to IV)To view FDA's public record of this clearance visit www.fda.gov/cdrh/pdf6/K060305.pdf. * The only Clear hair loss laser for women is the MEP-90 see its clearance at http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/cdrh_docs/pdf9/K091496.pdf. The FDA's approves drugs such as Minoxidil and gives clearance for devices such as the HairMax LaserComb, we sell programs that include both those products and other FDA approved drugs in our programs. Although proven in 115 clinics worldwide none of our programs are themselves approved by the FDA (do to the high cost to do it) only the individual items within those program maybe. Should you find a mistake on this site or elsewhere where it refers to a program with laser or that a laser was approved by the FDA it is in error and should read a laser that with FDA Clearance not approved and again refers only to laser mentioned above. The only version of Minoxidil approved by the FDA to grow hair is Rogaine and its exact generic equivalents. HLCC sells both exact generic equivalents and most often other formulas not tested by the FDA for hair growth. We have found these products to be effective in our clinics. Affiliate program, distributors sales available worldwide other than Greater Capital District NY and California were we have our own clinics. See your Hair Loss consultant for further details of specials.
