Re: A&G Hair Complex from A&G Skin Solutions
Well I just applied my 1st dose of 2ml(1/3 of a bottle) I plan on only using 2ml every second day for 15 treatments over 30 days. Before my shower: I used facial wax strips and waxed away all the <1mm colourless fuzz/hair from the slick bald areas. This initiates anagen. I used a foam nail file on ...

Re: A&G Hair Complex from A&G Skin Solutions
But do we know it aids in absorption of topicals? I asked about that at Regrowth..the LLLT hangout of the world. I don't recall anyone showing anything that shows it does help with absorption.

Re: A&G Hair Complex from A&G Skin Solutions
OK guys, here is the update as of my last application. I didn't finish the 5 vials but did finish 5 treatments. Opted not to do more because the complex is progressively irritating my scalp. The last one ended up feeling like (and looking like) a bad sunburn. I ended up washing it all off before 8 ...

Jajo To add...its only 5 treatments verses 2x a day every day chronic use of rogaine :) Good point - and again, even at twice a day, it wasnt until about 2-3 weeks in before it started to irritate me anyway and I toughed that out for another month I think (before the itch drove me nuts!) ;-) Jajo

On the contrary there are experiments where things such as LLLT has grown hair in humans and much to my surprise LLLT significantly upregulates TGFBeta.
