Propecia® (Finasteride/Proscar)

PropeciaPropecia® is the first and only FDA-approved oral medication used for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia (male pattern hair loss). It was approved in 1997 and was developed for treating hair loss on the vertex (top of head) and anterior mid-scalp area (middle front of head).

Finasteride is the generic name of the drug which is the active incredient in a 1mg dose as Propecia®, and a 5mg dose as Proscar.

Propecia® works by decreasing the amount of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the body and thus its negative effect on genetically predisposed hair follicles. The end result is that Propecia® may slow and in many cases prevent or reverse hair loss.

Patients will usually start to see results in 3 or 4 months with more substantial progress in 6 to 12 months. If Propecia® has not worked in 12 months, further treatment is unlikely to be of benefit.

A small number (less than 2%) of men in the clinical trials had sexual side effects. These included less desire for sex, difficulty in achieving an erection, and a decrease in the amount of semen. These side effects went away in men who stopped taking Propecia®.

Compounded Finasteride

Finasteride is the generic form of the active ingredient in the FDA approved drug Propecia®.

Dr. Baxa has always been a strong advocate for utilizing Propecia® (finasteride) to help maintain and regrow hair for his clients. We have finally received FDA approval to provide you with a huge savings by offering our own branded Compounded Finasteride product.

Our new product includes 1.1 mg of Finasteride, PLUS 50 mcg of Biotin and 50 mcg of Selenium ... ALL of which are indicated for strong hair regrowth! Compounded Finasteride therefore includes 10% more of the active ingredient Finasteride.

You can save $100 on a 3 month supply of our Compounded Finasteride as compared to the brand name Propecia® alternative.

Toppik Concealer

PropeciaIf you have thinning hair or balding areas, there is now an instant solution. It's not a spray, cream or cover-up but hair building fibers.

Toppik is a formulated complex of tiny, micro fiber "hairs" that blend with your hair ... statically charged to bond securely. Once Toppik is applied you will see a fuller, more natural looking head of hair.

Instantly these Hair Building Fibers transform your thin, colorless "vellus" hairs. This "peach fuzz" becomes thick and full before your eyes.

Toppik is recommended by doctors because it is safe and works well with hair transplant procedures. If used after a hair transplant, Toppik will make any scabs or scars completely disappear.

If you are concerned about visible hair loss ... your thinnest, limpest strands of hair will become thicker and your thinnest areas will look full again.

Fullmore Concealer

FullmoreFullmore is a special blend of space-age polymers and tiny, colored fibers that bond to your hair. In just seconds, bald spots disappear and thin hair looks thick and full again.

Fullmore is a revolutionary new concept in the treatment of thinning and balding hair. Formulated for men and woman who want to look their best, Fullmore goes on quickly, not only covering bald spots but adding texture and fullness. Safe and effective to use.

Fullmore is perfectly safe to use with Minoxidil and Propecia®. And if you've had a transplant, it's safe to use Fullmore as soon as the grafts have fully healed. Fullmore does not harm your hair in any way. Its space-age polymers simply attach to your existing hair. It doesn't penetrate the hair shaft or clog your pores. Your scalp will continue to breathe and maintain its healthy growth of hair.

HairMax LaserComb

HairMax Laser CombIn January 2007 the FDA gave clearance to the HairMax LaserComb for the treatment of hair loss. With more than 90% of all LaserComb users achieving satisfaction with their results, this device is a safe, simple way to a fuller head of thick, luxurious-looking hair. It is a proven fact that skin cells "like" light. Your hair is no different. Both men and women of all ages can benefit from laser light therapy provided by the LaserComb.

The HairMax works via the principle of PhotoBioStimulation, a process by which laser energy is delivered to the hair follicle. While the exact mechanism is unknown, it is hypothesized that Laser PhotoTherapy stimulates growth factors within the hair follicle.

The handheld HairMax is available without prescription and is a one time cost that delivers long term benefits. It is portable, easy to use and requires only three treatments per week.

Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is on the cutting edge of hair loss treatments. Now's the time to experience the true benefits of laser therapy for yourself.

Hair Care Products

Wella BalsamThe REMAXX Advanced Hair Fitness Program was designed originally for those experiencing hair loss and administered only in medical hair restoration clinics. But the idea of promoting strong healthy hair appeals to everyone that cares about the way they look.

There are no harsh detergent cleansers that damage the hair, but ingredients designed to cleanse mildly and feed the hair cells proteins, amino acids, nutrients and vitamins proven to be necessary for the maintenance of strong healthy hair. It only makes sense to use the REMAXX product line on healthy hair, too. It's great for the whole family!
