Minoxidil Fluocinolane Tretinoin

A Triple-Action Approach to Hair Regrowth

This compounded topical formula combines three clinically-studied ingredients, each with a specific role in supporting hair regrowth and scalp health. By working together synergistically, these ingredients address multiple factors that contribute to hair loss in women.

The Three Active Ingredients

1Minoxidil 5%

A Time-Tested Hair Growth Stimulant

Minoxidil is the the most proven and studied ingredient for female pattern hair loss. It works by:

Extending the growth phase (anagen) of the hair cycle

Increasing blood flow to hair follicles

Stimulating follicles to produce thicker, longer hair

Reversing the miniaturization process that causes thinning

2Fluocinolone 0.01%

Anti-Inflammatory Scalp Support

Fluocinolone is a corticosteroid that helps reduce scalp inflammation and irritation. It provides:

Reduction of scalp redness, itching, and discomfort

Support for conditions like seborrheic dermatitis that can contribute to hair loss

Help with scalp irritation that can occur from other topical treatments

Support for inflammatory hair loss conditions

Studies suggest fluocinolone may help create a healthier scalp environment for hair growth, particularly in cases where inflammation is a contributing factor.

3Tretinoin 0.005%

Absorption Enhancer & Growth Promoter

Tretinoin, a retinoid, enhances the effectiveness of minoxidil by:

Increasing minoxidil absorption through the scalp by up to 3-fold

Upregulating follicular sulfotransferase enzymes that convert minoxidil to its active form

Promoting cell turnover and skin renewal

Potentially converting "non-responders" to minoxidil into responders

Research shows that combining tretinoin with minoxidil may enhance hair regrowth results compared to minoxidil alone.

Why Combine These Ingredients?

While minoxidil alone is effective for many women, combining it with fluocinolone and tretinoin creates a more comprehensive approach:

Tretinoin helps your scalp absorb more minoxidil

Fluocinolone reduces irritation and creates a healthier scalp environment

All three work together to support optimal conditions for hair regrowth

Understanding Female Pattern Hair Loss

Female pattern hair loss (also called androgenetic alopecia) is the most common type of hair loss in women, affecting approximately 30 million women in the United States. Unlike men, women typically experience diffuse thinning across the top and crown of the scalp rather than complete baldness.

Common Signs

Gradual thinning of hair on the top of the head

Widening of the center hair part

Reduced hair volume and density

Visible scalp, especially at the crown

Increased shedding

What Causes It?

Genetics and family history

Hormonal changes (including menopause)

Aging

Environmental and lifestyle factors

Underlying medical conditions

The hair follicles gradually become smaller (miniaturize) and produce shorter, thinner, weaker hairs until eventually they may stop producing visible hair altogether.

You're Not Alone:

Hair loss can significantly impact self-confidence and emotional well-being. Many women experience feelings of frustration, anxiety, or loss of femininity. These feelings are valid, and effective treatments are available to help you regrow and maintain your hair.

How The Formula Works Together

This three-ingredient formula works through multiple complementary mechanisms to create optimal conditions for hair regrowth.

Step 1: Enhanced Absorption

Tretinoin prepares your scalp and enhances the absorption of minoxidil. Studies show it can increase minoxidil penetration by up to 3 times compared to minoxidil alone. It also upregulates the enzymes needed to convert minoxidil to its active form.

Step 2: Follicle Stimulation

Minoxidil extends the growth phase of your hair cycle and stimulates blood flow to the hair follicles, providing more nutrients and oxygen. This helps reverse the miniaturization process and encourages follicles to produce thicker, longer hair.

Step 3: Scalp Support

Fluocinolone reduces inflammation and irritation on the scalp, creating a healthier environment for hair growth. It can help minimize side effects from the other ingredients and support overall scalp health.

The Synergistic Effect:

Research suggests that combining these ingredients may produce better results than using minoxidil alone. The tretinoin enhances how much minoxidil your scalp absorbs, while the fluocinolone helps you tolerate the treatment comfortably for consistent, long-term use.

Backed by Clinical Research

Each ingredient in this formula has been studied for hair loss treatment, and research supports the benefits of combining them.

Minoxidil for Women:

Commonly prescribed for female pattern hair loss since 2014 (5% foam)

Clinical studies show significant improvement in hair count and coverage

Studies demonstrate efficacy in treating androgenetic alopecia in women

Results typically visible after 4-6 months of consistent use

Tretinoin + Minoxidil Combination:

Studies show tretinoin increases minoxidil absorption by 3-fold

Research indicates combining tretinoin with minoxidil resulted in terminal hair regrowth in 66% of study participants after one year

One study found that 43% of predicted non-responders to minoxidil became responders after adding tretinoin

Combination therapy may be as effective as twice-daily minoxidil with just once-daily application

Fluocinolone for Scalp Health:

Research supports use for inflammatory scalp conditions

May help with scalp irritation that can interfere with treatment adherence

Studies suggest potential benefit for certain types of hair loss involving inflammation

Important Note:

Individual results vary significantly

Consistent, long-term use is essential for best results

Most women see initial results within 3-6 months

Continued use is necessary to maintain results

New hair growth becomes more apparent
Hair density may visibly increase
Part line may appear narrower
Overall volume may improve
Baby hairs from earlier months mature

Month 6-12: Continued Progress

Optimal results typically seen
Continued use necessary to maintain improvements
Some women see continued gradual improvement beyond one year

Important Reminders:

Results vary significantly between individuals

Consistency is absolutely essential
