hi champ i think mintop is one that has retina a in also spectral 5% minoxidil has retinal in it but it does not say what percent.
Many have gone off the market as in the late 80s and 90s there was a lot of minox with tretinoin in.
The problem is it only a once a day at night application due to not being able to go out in sunlight or even using a sunbed when you have applied tretinoin.
We need to ask spectral what percent is in there formula? another is perfect solutions minoxidil whicg has retina a in and loads of other ingredience but does not say again what percent.
Then there is Dr Lewenbergs formula which is 2% minoxidil + tretinoin 0.25% which he has a sensitive formula, which we know has to be applied 3-4 times a day for at least a year, and if you get regrowth it can then be applied less.
There again its pricey as you need at least 3 bottles a month although he does have a discount on 10 bottles and also he has a contact scheme of 2-3 bottles a month which is a bit cheaper.
He has his followers and seems to have had some good success i did try his normal formula and it made my scalp sore so im not sure of the sensitive one.
I may have been applying it wrong as you are supposed to keep it at about 8-9inchs away from the scalp and just use it like a hair spray and not even supposed to rub it in.Comment

I would avoid the retina version all over the scalp it could sting, use the DMI version if your buying Dr kleins spray form. If your also adding the lotion use the tretinoin lotion on the temples.Comment

I'm thinking of doing a test on my mum to see if this helmet actually is doing anything or not! She's very thin ontop and losing hair, I'm thinking of testing the igrow documenting the pictures, I'm going to ask her and see but this will be the only treatment she will be using.

your hairloss is hardly noticeable, which is why I can't really tell a difference between the two. In my opinion, you don't really need minoxidil or any type of hair loss treatment because your stage of hairloss is so minor.Comment

It is just really hard to judge improvement unless your match your after pictures with the before. I am talking same hair length, lighting and angle. I thought I noticed some improvement in thechamp's last pics, but with some hair types, styles, lengths, it is difficult.Comment

Guys I wouldn't say lasers are a scam as theres plenty scientific evidence to back them up, but hell no can a laser helmet or any other device halt or regrow hair! I reckon it might help in conjunction with other treatments, no way is it better than minxoxidol that's my verdict. I use Promox kits and that has always thickened my hair, I'm just using the laser helmet for the sake of the studies.
Recently it's got me thinking for us forum members I'm going to do a proper study on my mum and document this, she's losing hair and thinning I'm going to get her to use this helmet without any other treatments, purely based on the helmet results, than that will tell us if these lasers actually work, what do you guys reckon shall I document it?
