About REGAINE 5% SOLUTION 60 ML

How REGAINE 5% SOLUTION 60 ML Works
- REGAINE 5% SOLUTION 60 ML widens blood vessels, increases blood flow, and stimulates hair follicles to promote hair growth. It extends the growth phase of the hair cycle, resulting in longer and thicker hair strands.
- REGAINE 5% SOLUTION 60 ML is a vasodilator, which means it widens blood vessels. When applied topically to the scalp, it causes the blood vessels in the hair follicles to dilate, increasing blood flow to the follicles. This enhanced blood circulation brings more oxygen and nutrients to the hair follicles, promoting their growth. REGAINE 5% SOLUTION 60 ML also prolongs the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle, leading to longer and thicker hair strands. It may also increase the size of hair follicles, reversing the miniaturization process seen in androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness and female pattern hair loss).
- REGAINE 5% SOLUTION 60 ML works by opening potassium channels, which leads to hyperpolarization of cell membranes. This hyperpolarization relaxes the smooth muscle cells surrounding blood vessels, resulting in vasodilation. Additionally, it can increase the production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and decrease the production of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1). These effects further contribute to improved blood flow and the stimulation of hair follicles.
