Hair Systems

Hair systems have become more sophisticated in design with the
integration of more natural looking hair into almost undetectable
base material. They are now more comfortable and durable for use
by active and athletic people. This is the perfect solution for people
who can not have hair transplants due to medical or other restrictions.

Rogaine

Rogaine or Minoxidil is the first medication approved by
the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
that has been proven to grow hair. It is also available
in a stronger 5% solution for men who found the 2%
solution not to be effective. Most men with thinning or
balding hair are concerned with their frontal hairline.
UpJohn and Pharmacia admits that Rogaine has little
or no effect in this critical area. The greater benefit of
Rogaine and Propecia is the slowing down of hair loss.

Propecia

The FDA gave approval in 1998 to the Merck Company
to market the first pill to fight thinning and balding
called PropeciaTM (Finasteride). Propecia is really
a smaller dosage of Proscar, a prostate enlargement
medication. It has demonstrated some ability to slow
hair thinning and promotes hair growth in some men.
It cannot completely restore hairlines and is more
effective in the crown and vortex areas.

Conclusion

The Natural Solution

Once the treatment of Propecia and Rogaine
are stopped, a person usually loses all the hair
he may have grown due to the medication.
As of right now, the long term side effects of
using Rogaine and Propecia are not conclusive.
There is no assurance that the FDA will not
revoke its approval at some future date.
Propecia is only available by prescription
and costs about $50.00 per month.
