What is Regaine for Women Extra Strength Foam?

Regaine for Women is the only foam treatment clinically proven to help women with hair loss.

The topical foam contains the active ingredient minoxidil, helped to regrow hair in 8 out of 10 women using the treatment.

How does it work?

Female pattern hair loss disrupts the hair growth cycle. The scalp follicles shrink, causing them to become inactive over time and each new cycle produces shorter and finer hairs.

Minoxidil present in Regaine is clinically proven to treat hair loss as it:

• Helps reactivate these hair follicles, helping to strengthen the existing hairs and to encourage growth.
• It increases the blood flow and nutrient supply, stimulating the follicles to increase their size and produce thicker and stronger hair.
• It also extends the growth phase of the hair growth cycle to increase the overall hair count.

How do I use it?

You should apply the foam to your scalp only and not more than once a day. It is best to use it at night before bed, so the foam can work while you sleep.

1. Use half a capful of foam on a dry scalp
2. Apply to the affected area of the head and massage in gently
3. Wash hands thoroughly after use
4. Leave the foam to dry

You must continue using the treatment even if you see your hair beginning to grow. If you stop the treatment, the positive results will be lost.

How long does it take to work?

You may notice that you start to shed hair about 2-6 weeks into the treatment. This means that the Regaine is working and getting ready to regrow stronger hair.

The shedding should not last more than 2 weeks and you can start to see results in just 12 weeks.
