ALOPECIA Alopecia is defined as the loss of hair of any type and origin. It is the reason for up to 8% of the dermatological consultations. The most common form is androgenetic alopecia and affects many men and some women. In 5% of men it begins before the age of 20 but it is more commonly found in adults. Towards the age of 60, baldness manifests itself in 40% of men. In women androgenetic alopecia is less frequent and usually does not occur before menopause. This pharmacy's team for their rapid results has selected the following treatments.. PROPECIA (28 tablets): Their active ingredient finasterid acts as a blocking agent against an enzyme, which occurs during the regulation of the hair folicle. It is used in the earlystages of the androgenetic alopecia in men. ALOSTIL (minoxydile 2-5% in flasks of 60 ml): This is a solution for cutaneous application in cases of androgenetic alopecia. VICHY DERCOS ANTI-FALL (18 amp):   Ampoules of aminexil. It has been demonstrated that with aminexil there is an increase of 8% in hair growth when taking the placebo. This is available in two types: · Dercos-Man:- This is a 1.5% solution of Aminexil, that favours hair growth, Triclosan and Piroctona Olamina for irritation of the roots and Vichy Thermal water wich is a soothing anti-irritatant. · Dercos-Woman:- This is a 1.5% of Aminexil and vitamins PP/B5/B6 that favours natural hair growth.   CRESCINA Labo Cosprophar laboratories in 1991 created Crescina, a complex of amino acids, Cysteine and Lysine, blended into an anti-hair loss preparation with vasodilator action, also able to encourage hair regrowth by stimulating hair bulbs that are still active. In 1998 the discovery acquired a solid dimension when the combination of amino acids, Cysteine and Lysine, was added to a Glycoprotein able to stimulate cell metabolism in bulbs that are still active, increasing the process of protein synthesis, that is to say the production of keratin that leads to hair growth. In 1998 Crescina, an outstanding avant-garde product, was registered with a Swiss patent: this was not just another hair loss preparation like so many others, but a treatment capable of reactivating the physiological growth of hair in areas affected by thinning, formulated in different dosages to deal with various levels of thinning, applying the scientifically acquired classification of the phenomenon, which uses the Hamilton scale for men and the Ludwig scale for women. Crescina is a product available in vials for topical cosmetic use. It will have no effect on totally atrophied hair follicles . PANTOGAR Pantogar acts over the blood stream and improves the own metabolism of the hair. Pantogar is an oral vitamin preparation to ensure healthy and full hair.
