This solution is dispensed in a dropper bottle, allowing for precise and controlled administration, ensuring targeted treatment for various scalp conditions such as dandruff, itchiness, or dryness.

The formulation is a potent blend of medications and vitamins, each serving a unique purpose. Minoxidil, a vasodilator, enhances blood flow to the scalp, thereby promoting hair growth.

Vitamin E Acetate, an antioxidant, protects the scalp from oxidative damage and promotes healthy hair growth. Fluocinolone Acetonide, a corticosteroid, alleviates inflammation and itching associated with various scalp conditions. Lastly, Tretinoin, a retinoid, reduces sebum production and promotes healthy skin cell turnover.

This comprehensive formulation is an effective treatment for a wide range of hair loss and scalp conditions, including but not limited to male and female pattern baldness, alopecia areata, and seborrheic dermatitis. It can also be used to address scalp itching, flaking, and irritation, delivering medication, nourishing ingredients, or therapeutic agents directly to the scalp for optimal results.
