Is Scalp Med A Scam
There is really only one topical treatment that has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration as having a positive effect on hair loss. This drug is Minoxidil and it is the active ingredient in hair loss solutions that are applied to the head in order to deal with thinning hair and balding. This compound does work and will keep your hair from falling out as fast if it is used properly. It must be applied to the scalp on a regular basis and continued to be used. Once stopped its affects quickly reverse.
One product that uses Minoxidil is Scalp Med. Scalp Med is a topical solution that is used to stop hair loss and it will re-grow a small amount of hair usually as long as the hair follicles have not been completely rendered useless. You can read about it at the Scalp Med Review and see what you think. The real benefit from this product is that it also contains Saw Palmetto Palm extract. This natural hair loss remedy has been used for years to treat male urinary problems and is now also being used by people wanting to treat their hair loss.
Saw Palmetto appears to act in the same way another FDA approved drug, Finasteride, does. The cause of male pattern baldness is a build up of DHT in the blood stream which eventually bonds with the hair follicles in the area of the scalp that is going bald. This buildup stops the normal flow of blood supply to the hair roots causing the follicle to start to whither and shrink. If not reversed, this loss of blood will eventually cause the follicle to stop hair production completely and be encased in fibrotic material. At this point there is nothing that can be done to jumpstart this hair follicle to begin manufacturing shaft material again.
If you are looking for hair loss products then they need to contain at least one of the drugs approved by the FDA or at least some other substance that works like the drug such as Saw Palmetto.
