Minoxidil and wrinkles

I’ve come to the conclusion that minoxidil is quite possibly giving me fairly prominent forehead wrinkles. I was skeptical at first but it seems there are many studies behind minoxidil and it’s effect on collagen.

I’m currently on finasteride and minoxidil combo which have worked very well. The minoxidil actually gave some good growth.

Now I’m wondering whether to drop minoxidil or cut it down. The wrinkles are bad but losing some growth will be just as bad.

Is there an alternative to minoxidil? Or does anyone know if a reduced minoxidil dosage will reduce wrinkles while maintaining growth?

Thanks

My mother persuades me to undergo surgery to get rid of wrinkles, but I'm afraid. She even found an excellent clinic with a good reputation in Canada. Soon I will probably go to this clinic http://www.cliniquechloe.com/ and I hope that they can make me beautiful there, because now I look so awful that I don’t even have a boyfriend. Ehh, I hope all this ends soon.
