Hair loss · What is approved, what is promising, what is marketing
Minoxidil, finasteride, PRP, mesotherapy and the peptide claims.
Revisado médicamente por Bernard Garcia, MD
Qué es
For pattern hair loss, two treatments are FDA-approved: topical minoxidil and oral finasteride (men). Oral minoxidil (off-label), PRP, scalp mesotherapy, microneedling, low-level laser and peptide serums (including GHK-Cu) are marketed with evidence ranging from moderate to none.
Cómo funciona
Minoxidil prolongs the hair growth phase; finasteride reduces DHT. Both need continued use. PRP has small positive studies with unstandardised preparations. Mesotherapy "cocktails" vary by clinic and lack controlled evidence.

¿Es legal?
Minoxidil (topical) and finasteride are FDA-approved. Oral minoxidil, PRP, mesotherapy and peptide serums are off-label or unregulated. This is a general note, not medical advice.
Preguntas frecuentes
Do peptides regrow hair?
No peptide has evidence comparable to minoxidil or finasteride. GHK-Cu has cosmetic-grade data at best.
Is finasteride safe?
It is approved with documented side effects that a provider will discuss; it is not for women of childbearing potential.
Does Vitrex provide any of this?
No. Hair treatments are discussed with a provider after an intake.
