Minoxidil can cause aging by decreasing the expression of lysine hydroxylase in collagen production. Can this be counteracted, or must I just stop using it? I've never had a wrinkle in my life, and am noticing marionette lines after using Minoxidil for 2 months. Must I choose between my face and hair?
