5% Minoxidil in Carrier Lotion


HLCC made Minoxidil better by:

  • Providing a dropper, for direct application to the scalp not the hair
  • Scalp Therapy 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 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 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.
