Revivogen ( Increased hair shedding )
Dear Alex,
I am 50 years old quite fit go to gym 3 times a week.
I eat healthy foods and i take supplements.
I have been on the Revivogen programm for one month now.Ever since i started using this treatment i noticed an increased shedding of my hair.
This has not stopped at all !
I am quite concerned about this problem, as my crown
area has increased in size it appears to be even
thinner than before there seems to be no improvement in regards to hairloss stopping !
Is this a normal condition caused by Revivogen ?
And why is the scalp treatment so oily?
Can't you make something a little less oily ?
Regards
Mario
Dear Mario,
Within the two months of Revivogen use, you may increased shedding. This is due to the reason that the resting hairs (telogen hairs) are being replaced by growing hairs (anagen hairs). Over time these anagen hairs will grow longer and thicker which will result in decreased shedding. The oiliness of the product is due to the fact that the active ingredients are fatty acids and have a specific delivery system. This can not be change since the product needs to have these ingredients.
