I am using Costco brand minoxidil 5 pct foam (see pic). But during my recent visit to a doc in New Delhi (India), he recommended using minoxidil 10 pct & mentioned that 5 pct will not help hair regrow after FUE. Is that true 5 pct is ineffective and 10 pct is a better strength to use. And if 5 pct is still good, is Costco brand equally effective as Rogaine? Please share your thoughts. Thanks

Answer: It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen.
It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care and issues as each doctor has their unique regimen. Pain is very subjective and if you are experiencing pain that you feel is not normal contact your doctor.
