An Introduction to Minoxidil 12.5% + Azelaic Acid Cream
Minoxidil 12.5% with Azelaic Acid (AA) cream contains 12.5% Minoxidil and 5% Azelaic acid and has been exclusively developed by the Belgravia Pharmacy to treat stubborn cases of male and female pattern hair loss and Alopecia Areata, amongst other conditions. As Minoxidil is dose dependent, the 12.5% preparation is in most cases specifically beneficial in areas which include the temples, frontal hairline, or in some cases patches on the vertex or crown. Minoxidil 12.5% + AA is also beneficial to these areas as it is easy to apply due to its thick texture.
How Does Minoxidil 12.5% with Azelaic Acid 5% Work?
Minoxidil acts as a vasodilator and increases blood flow to the hair roots which encourages hair growth. Azelaic Acid is a natural substance found in some whole grains and in trace amounts in the human body. Azelaic Acid acts as an inhibitor of the enzyme 5 alpha reductase, which converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is responsible for damaging the hair follicles and restricting growth. This reduction of DHT in the scalp encourages hair growth.
The combination of minoxidil and azelaic acid is highly complementary. Minoxidil ensuring enough blood is being delivered to the follicles, and azelaic acid making sure the blood is in fit condition to ensure healthy hair growth .
Can Minoxidil 12.5% + AA be Used With Any Other Medications?
Over years of treating thousands of hair loss sufferers, Belgravia has found that the combination of more than one medication ensures the best results. Minoxidil 12.5% + AA can be used alongside Propecia or minoxidil 5% + MPG, as well as Hair Vitalics and our other ‘boosters’ to ensure the highest chances of maximum re-growth.
Side Effects
Like other drugs there can be side effects from the use of Minoxidil 12.5% + AA for hair loss. During the past ten years of treating tens of thousands of men and women at the Belgravia Centre with minoxidil we estimate less than one in one hundred (1%) incidents of side effects. Side effects ranged from mild facial hair growth, headaches, rashes and palpitations. All were mild and needed no medical treatment. They either diminished in a short time during minoxidil use, or shortly after ceasing usage of minoxidil.
If any mild hair growth in unwanted areas is experienced from minoxidil 12.5% + AA (such as the face), Belgravia’s pharmacy can prescribe an FDA approved cream proven to reduce hair growth at the areas of application.
12.5% MINOXIDIL AND AZELAIC ACID 5% IS A PRESCRIPTION-ONLY TREATMENT DEVELOPED BY THE BELGRAVIA PHARMACY. IT IS EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE FROM THE BELGRAVIA TRICHOLOGICAL CENTRE.
