To make your dry and thin hair healthy again, you can try using minoxidil solution. Apply 1ml of minoxidil solution twice daily on the affected area of the scalp. Additionally, you can take biotin supplements to promote hair growth and improve hair health. Make sure to consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation and guidance.

Question

I've been on Brintop F 5 for 56 months now, as my dermatologist suggested. At first, like around the first 34 months, it did wonders for meI noticed my hair thinning got so much better. But lately, Im seeing the opposite. My hair above the forehead is thinning even more now, and there's more dandruff, too. Should I bump up the strength of the lotion from 5 to 10, or would it be better to stop using it altogether?
