Advice on Hair Loss Prevention, Treatments and Hair Restoration

Extensive Hair Loss Research Vouches for Product Safety

While most people look at statistics, photos and success stories to choose a baldness cure, hair loss research should really be one of your first considerations. There are hundreds of options out there, but an approved FDA hair loss treatment has a significant advantage – it’s backed by proven clinical safety tests.

Why FDA Approval?

Hair loss is a cosmetic problem in most cases, not something that is life-threatening or dangerous. So why should you look for FDA approval of something you are using to treat your hair loss? Because these treatments don’t just “cover” baldness the way make-up does. Research has shown that the way almost all treatments work is below the surface of the skin. This means it is absorbed into the scalp and blood stream. Do you want to take a pill or smooth on a cream that hasn’t been approved as safe? An allergic reaction could be disastrous!

The only hair loss products that don’t require FDA approval are those that aren’t considered a medicinal treatment (whether by prescription or over the counter). These products are usually shampoos and conditioners with all natural ingredients. Some of these natural hair loss treatments can be effective for male pattern baldness and balding in women, but generally they haven’t had as much research simply because of the costs involved in doing private trials. It doesn’t mean they aren’t good, it just means the government testing hasn’t been done.

Avoid Complications and Side Effects

Allergic reactions and irritation can happen with any product, but by doing your best to see how much research has been done by the FDA into side effects, performance and safety; you can lessen the chances they will happen to you. If your hair loss treatment has been FDA approved, it has been checked out by an agency that is one of the best in the world at guaranteeing product safety and reliability.
