What is topical finasteride?

Topical Finasteride (applied twice daily onto your scalp) is a modern method that procures efficient hair loss treatment with possible lower systemic adverse occurrences, according to clinical studies.

Research shows that when compared to the tablet form of 1mg dosage, 0.25% topical Finasteride exhibit similar remedial effects.  Hence, like oral preparation, topical Finasteride for hair loss works to reduce scalp and serum DHT levels, a higher amount of which is found in miniaturized hair follicles.  According to clinical studies, topical Finasteride may be a safer alternative to oral Finasteride.

How long does Happy Head take to work?

With daily application of topical Finasteride, the results are typically seen as early as 3 months, and up to 6 months of use.

In a clinical trial study of 45 male patients, Hajheydari et al. (2009) compared oral Finasteride (the pill) 1mg vs topical Finasteride 1% for a total of 6 months. Both the oral Finasteride 1mg and the topical Finasteride 1% showed statistically significant increase in total and terminal hair count after 4 months.

 

Why do patients choose the topical Happy Head formula?

Many patients are tired of taking both a pill and then applying over-the-couter minoxidil to their hair.  Happy Head allows you to combine both steps into one, as it’s proprietary compounded formula combines prescription grade finasteride and 8% minoxidil into one.  This means that you have one less step in your hair care routine and you will probably see better results since the minoxidil is 8% as opposed to OTC minoxidil, which is 5%.

Additionally, some patients have had side effects on oral finasteride (the pill) and want to try an alternative by using topical finasteride.  In a clinical trial study of 45 male patients, Hajheydari et al. (2009) compared oral Finasteride (the pill) 1mg vs topical Finasteride 1% for a total of 6 months. Both the oral Finasteride 1mg and the topical Finasteride 1% showed statistically significant increase in total and terminal hair count after 4 months.

Can women use Happy Head?

Yes. We do have a special, customized formulas for women. For women under 50, our standard formula consists of the following active ingredients: spironolactone 0.1%, minoxidil 6%, and retinoic acid 0.01%. For women over 50, our standard formula consists of the following active ingredients: finasteride 0.1%, minoxidil 6%, and retinoic acid 0.01%. Your doctor will help determine which formula is right for you, depending upon your age and medical hair loss history.

Are there any side effects?

Clinical studies demonstrate that topical Finasteride has clinically proven, evidence-based, scientific data to show its efficacy in growing hair and that it may have a lower side effect profile compared to oral Finasteride.

There are many side effects associated with oral Finasteride, especially sexual side effects.

There have been many clinical studies on topical Finasteride. Majority of those studies showed no sexual side effects for patient using topical Finasteride, sometimes at higher concentration than our formula.  Specifically, out of the 7 clinical studies reported above, only one study showed one event with sexual side effects (testicular pain). This is 1 out of 268 subjects in all of the studies.

In contrast, oral Finasteride is associated with sexual side effects in 1.8% to 3.8% of patients.

One should be aware that side effects may still occur even with topical Finasteride and it is recommended to titrate up the use of topical Finasteride in order to avoid shocking the system and our Doctors will go over that with you.

Please remember that any side effect that may occur on oral Finasteride can possibly occur with topical Finasteride, but according to clinical studies, the side effects may be lower.
