Can I not use minoxidil?

Hello! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Aesthetic Skin in Winnetka and Chicago. This is a great question. Based on your concerns, I recommend treatment with Exosome injections. Exosome injections are emerging as a promising treatment for hair loss, offering several potential benefits. Exosomes are small vesicles that contain growth factors, proteins, and RNA molecules derived from stem cells. When injected into the scalp, exosomes communicate with existing cells, promoting hair follicle regeneration and growth. Exosomes stimulate the proliferation of dermal papilla cells and hair follicle stem cells, which are crucial for hair follicle formation and hair growth cycle regulation. By enhancing cellular activity within the scalp, exosome injections can lead to increased hair density and thicker hair shafts over time. Exosome injections can be used in combination with other hair loss treatments, such as minoxidil or finasteride, to enhance overall results. I love this treatment and highly encourage you to try it! I hope this helps and best of luck.

I would recommend correcting serum ferritin and vitamin D level first in case you do not want to depend on minoxidil. These two supplements are very important for the hair growth. Please note that it takes at least 3-6 months after serum ferritin and serum vitamin D level become normalized in order to see better result.

It’s important to understand some principles. all treatments for AGA are forever . there is nothing unique or special about Minoxidil.

you are making a huge assumption that one can diagnose hair loss from 3-4 sentences. proper diagnosis requires review of a patient’s story and proper examination of the scalp (including trichoscopy).
