You will be monitored as needed, and any unusual or adverse symptoms should be reported immediately to your provider.
While many patients benefit from hair loss treatments, results may vary by individual. No guarantee can be made regarding the speed, amount, or permanence of hair regrowth.
Success depends on your biology, consistency in following treatment instructions, and other health and lifestyle factors.
