For anyone struggling with hair loss, two ingredients are often mentioned as the gold standard: Minoxidil and Finasteride. Both are clinically proven to support hair regrowth, yet they work in very different ways. Understanding the difference between them is the first step toward finding the right treatment for you.
Minoxidil is a topical solution that improves blood circulation to the hair follicles. This increase in oxygen and nutrient delivery helps extend the growth phase of the hair cycle, allowing each strand to grow longer and stronger. It is ideal for stimulating dormant follicles and improving overall density.
Finasteride works internally by targeting a hormone known as DHT, or dihydrotestosterone. DHT is responsible for shrinking hair follicles over time, leading to thinning and eventually permanent hair loss. By blocking the conversion of testosterone into DHT, Finasteride helps prevent further damage and encourages regrowth in areas that are still active.
At Smart Restoration, our prescription Finasteride and Minoxidil Spray for men combines these two clinically validated ingredients into one formula. Developed under the supervision of Dr John Kahen, it delivers a physician guided solution that promotes growth, reduces shedding, and protects against future thinning. When paired with our RENEW Plus system, this treatment creates a comprehensive plan that addresses both the hormonal and structural causes of hair loss.
Science has already proven that Minoxidil and Finasteride work. What makes Smart Restoration unique is that every formula is developed through medical expertise, ensuring safety, precision, and visible results.
