Q&A: Using Alpecin with Minoxidil
Name: Dimitar
Question: Can I use Alpecin C1 (After shampoo liquid) and Minoxidil?
Answer: Yes, it is possible to use the Alpecin shampoo alongside Minoxidil. When using minoxidil it is however important that you leave it to absorb for at least 15 minutes before washing your hair. Please note that the shampoo Alpecin does not hold much efficacy for hair loss prevention, you can find more information on our Alpecin Information Page. Minoxidil is however one of only two proven treatments for hair loss prevention.
Belgravia offers specially formulated preparations of minoxidil in a 4% or 5% solution and a 12.5% cream, each with additives that may help to prevent DHT from damaging the hair follicles (DHT is the product produced by the body that causes genetic hair loss). Combinations of the proven medications (the other being Propecia) as a basis to a treatment course with various Hair Growth Boosters are advised in order to offer optimum levels of hair regrowth.
If you would like more information about these treatments and supplementary products, Belgravia offers a free consultation with a hair loss specialist. To book an appointment call 020 7730 6666 or message the centre. Alternatively, complete the online diagnostic form for a mail order treatment service.
