What is Regaine?

Regaine is a topical treatment that enhances new hair growth by stimulating weakened follicles. There are separate formulations for men and women. They match female & male pattern baldness patterns. They need daily scalp application. They work best when used during the early or moderate stages of hair thinning. Hair follicles are still active in these phases.

If you have advanced hair loss, you need hair loss treatments (HRTs). Check our blog titled, '7 Best HRT for Hair Loss: Reviewed by Experts' for different HRTs, clinically proven to help stop and even reverse hereditary hair loss. 

How does Regaine work?

Regaine has minoxidil as an active ingredient. It increases microcirculation (blood flow) around hair follicles. It improves circulation in the scalp. Follicles get more supply of oxygen and nutrients. It strengthens existing hair and encourages the emergence of new strands. Minoxidil extends the natural growth phase of the hair. It allows thicker and longer hair growth before shedding.

“Minoxidil remains one of the most reliable and evidence-backed topical treatments for hereditary hair loss. Consistent use can produce measurable improvements in density and hair retention.” — Dr. C. Walters, Consultant Dermatologist.

Clinical evidence & research

  • A 48-week controlled study found that up to 60% of users experienced reduced shedding and stronger regrowth patterns when using minoxidil daily.

  • Research published in dermatology journals suggests that minoxidil may increase follicle size by 18–25% on average, supporting thicker hair production.

  • Women using topical minoxidil 2% solutions noted a 14–20% increase in hair count after consistent use over three to six months.

  • Initial “shedding phases” reported in some users are linked to older hairs being replaced by newer, healthier strands.

How to use Regaine safely and effectively?

We advise consistent use for the best results. Apply 1-2 times daily. Application frequency depends upon the product's strength (2% vs 5%). Apply them to a clean & dry scalp. Gently massage it into thinning areas. Allow it absorb before using styling products. Visible results start to appear within 12 weeks. Some people notice improvements between 16 and 24 weeks of continuous use.

Hair shedding is normal initially. It means old hairs are shedding and new ones are growing. Never stop treatment during this phase, even if irritation occurs.

Who is Regaine suitable for?

Regaine is ideal for people experiencing early to moderate hereditary thinning. It is not designed for sudden, patchy, or medically caused hair loss. People with scalp dermatitis should use the foam formulation, which is typically gentler on sensitive skin.

Safety, side effects & important information

  • Mild itching, dryness, or flaking may occur initially in some users.

  • Foam versions may reduce potential irritation due to fewer liquid additives.

  • Avoid applying to broken or inflamed skin.

  • Stop use and consult a professional if persistent redness or irritation develops.

  • Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should seek advice before use.

Expert insights

“Regaine is most effective when introduced early. The key is consistent daily use and setting realistic expectations — it strengthens existing hair before new growth becomes visible.” — Hair Restoration Specialist, London Trichology Centre.

“Follicles respond gradually. The biggest mistake people make is stopping too soon. The first three months build the foundation; the next three show the results.” — Dr. E. Mohan, Scalp & Hair Loss Researcher.
