Going to call it a day with this product. Will be 6 months in the beginning of June (think is probably long enough to evaluate the effectiveness of a product) and no improvement to report on the crown where I have been using it. No side effects to report and it is easy to apply and dries super quick but sadly hasn't done anything for me so onto something else now

Hello Synth,

Maybe you can put an updates photo?

Thanks a lot.

Same for me - 6 months usage, and nothing to report... Will continue until that summer, and I will quite the test as far as I'm concern.
After 9 months if nothing happeneng, it will be clear it's not working... At least for me.

Hello guys.

First, excuse me for my english.

two days ago I received my capillogain tonic, but I'm a few concerned because the bottle is some different like others I saw at forum and the capillogain website.

Is this a legitim bottle?

Is this the right colour?

The company have changed the model of bottles?

These are some photos from bottles I have received

how long does Capillogain stay in the body?

I recently started using Voltaren as a new topical in conjunction with Capillogain applications which i do believe has benefits. I'm currently applying voltaren emulgel (small amounts) in the AM, Capillogain at 5pm and then voltaren agin before bed. the reason i ask about the life cycle of Capillogain in the body is i do sometime's notice interactions between the two topicals. Days without Capillogain, i don't seem to notice any side effects.. same goes with days/months without Voltaren. what are your thoughts on the synergistic effects of both of these topicals and is there any concerns with using both?
I am not aware of any interactions. However, I am sceptical about Voltaren/Diclofenac since it inhibits both COX1 and COX2. Aspirin already has been shown to be not effective for hair growth.

Did you apply it to a bald area, too? It is hard to notice difference in regions where there is still some hair.

The bottles are the right ones. Our bottle supplier was not able to deliver for a short time. Soon the bottles will look again like usual.

If ppl could also mention if they're using it daily...once or twice a day..etc..that'd be 8)

SyntheseLabRat, and why the colour is diferent?

Others users told me that the color was bright orange.

And this formula is too very sticky. It's right?

It says on the capillogain shampoo to leave it in for about 5 minutes. Will it make any difference if I leave it in for longer than 5 mins, maybe 10-15 minutes?

The color got more brownish compared to the first batches due to the addition of the Garden Burnet Extract.
I am not aware of an increased stickiness.

It is likely more effective if you leave it in longer. Fortunately the surfactants in Capillogain Shampoo are not aggressive and allow for a prolonged residence time.

So, nothing new for a while? Anyone else have results to report?

What happened to the "Capillogain Light" version? I've been waiting for that.

Hi everyone. I am new to the forum...I've been lurking and reading for a few weeks now. If you're interested you can read the introduction post I dutifully created. The short story is I am a 45-yr-old woman and I most likely have androgenetic hair loss, and I most definitely have very thin hair on top of my head with lots and lots of miniaturization.

I am planning on starting Cappilogain shampoo and tonic as soon as my order arrives from Amazon. The one question/request I have for Fred the LabRat is what happened to the idea of adding a neutralizing antibody against DKK-1? A long ways back in this very long :!: thread, there was talk of adding Magnesium L-Threonate, and my memory was that Fred said he was considering it. Did anything come of that?

I am looking at a bottle of Magnesium L-Threonate capsules on Amazon and wondering if I should buy some, dissolve it in acohol and add it to my conditioner or something. Sigh. I know that Fred and others recommend not using multiple stuff because then you don't know what worked, but I am concerned that without a DK11 stopper the results may be less than they could otherwise be. The truth is, I am super bummed about the way my hair is right now (you know it is hard on us girls when we start looking bald) and I really really want to get effective results.

Anyhow, I am getting Cappilogain because my dermatologist specifically recommended minoxidil as being good for women. (He said it never worked for men but it works very well for women). I don't want to use the Rogain-style formulation because I've heard bad things, but the Capillogain seems like a good alternative because of the better vehicle, smaller minox dosage, and especially with the other ingredients included in it.

Thanks for all the informative posts on this and other threads on this forum.

-Jess

P.S. I took photos of my current part and hairline to compare with after I've been using Cappilogain for a while. I will wait to post them until I have 3-month 'after' photos to post at the same time.

Can't you just use a lightweight neutral conditioner? Fred the LabRat said somewhere you could use other products if you wait 10 or 15 minutes for the Capillogain to absorb first. Is there something I'm missing? Because my hair is wavy/curly and brittle and I have to use a leave-in conditioner or it frizzes out all over and looks terrible. I was planning on using my usual ShiKai Everyday conditioner after the Capillogain shampoo in the morning, and using the tonic in the evening before bed. Is there some reason I shouldn't use a conditioner? I have to use something, but I can switch to a spray-on leave-in conditioner that mostly doesn't reach the scalp instead if that's better for the Cappilogain effectiveness.

@SyntheseLabRat

Any chance you guys will come out with a pgd2 product such as the indo/chromo combo or ramatroban? I'm desperately looking for sellers outside US since customs in my country will not let any medicin from outside of EU pass through.

Anyone with results lately?

I had results after a few months use, but now the effect seems to have halted completely. In fact my hair looks worse at the moment as I've been shedding quite a lot the past 5 weeks. I will use the last 3 bottles I have and take it from there, but I'm looking into trying pgd2 blockers instead and try to hold on to what I have before I aim for regrowth.

I'm almost at 6 months and I've been underwhelmed with results. Was on Spectral DNC perviously (the minoxidil version). When they removed minoxidil, I stopped using. When i switched to Cappillogain then the following happened

- 1st month - lots of shedding
- 2/3 month shedding stopped, nothing
- 4th month some growth in front and crown,
- 5th month, no new growth detected, new hairs from month 4th maturing
- Currently in 6 month

All that said, not sure if i will continue past month 6. my crown is definitely thinner since starting.

yes it seems that this may generate some new vellus hair but, like the rest of the treatments out there, just needs something more in order to make those hair go terminal. The guy from the company that makes this stuff doesn't even update anymore, so maybe the overall results aren't as good as they had hoped. Like I said, I'll give it 3 more months, maybe it takes a few hair cycles to strengthen the follicles.

the idea of Dynagen and with GP4G makes a lot of sense as you suggested. possibly even adenosine. Will give it a bit longer and then determine if is abandon or continue. I will say that microneedling 3 days a week w/o any topical produced results as good as Capillogain. This approach helps with cell generation and reduces fibrosis, creating an optimum environment for new hair and improving endothelial support for existing hair

Hey guys my hair is in its worse state ever after two bottles of capillogain. Sinere's last formula worked much better for me....Nano-Minox FMS. I wonder if the formula is still the same....I will look to purchase it

JessRose wrote:Hi everyone. I am new to the forum...I've been lurking and reading for a few weeks now. If you're interested you can read the introduction post I dutifully created. The short story is I am a 45-yr-old woman and I most likely have androgenetic hair loss, and I most definitely have very thin hair on top of my head with lots and lots of miniaturization.

I am planning on starting Cappilogain shampoo and tonic as soon as my order arrives from Amazon. The one question/request I have for Fred the LabRat is what happened to the idea of adding a neutralizing antibody against DKK-1? A long ways back in this very long :!: thread, there was talk of adding Magnesium L-Threonate, and my memory was that Fred said he was considering it. Did anything come of that?

I am looking at a bottle of Magnesium L-Threonate capsules on Amazon and wondering if I should buy some, dissolve it in acohol and add it to my conditioner or something. Sigh. I know that Fred and others recommend not using multiple stuff because then you don't know what worked, but I am concerned that without a DK11 stopper the results may be less than they could otherwise be. The truth is, I am super bummed about the way my hair is right now (you know it is hard on us girls when we start looking bald) and I really really want to get effective results.

Anyhow, I am getting Cappilogain because my dermatologist specifically recommended minoxidil as being good for women. (He said it never worked for men but it works very well for women). I don't want to use the Rogain-style formulation because I've heard bad things, but the Capillogain seems like a good alternative because of the better vehicle, smaller minox dosage, and especially with the other ingredients included in it.

Thanks for all the informative posts on this and other threads on this forum.

-Jess

P.S. I took photos of my current part and hairline to compare with after I've been using Cappilogain for a while. I will wait to post them until I have 3-month 'after' photos to post at the same time.
Hello Jess,
sorry for the late reply.
L-Threonate is still a good idea but better don´t add it to Capillogain Tonic.
*lol* you cannot throw an antibody into a cosmetic product, it is forbidden, sorry :)
I wish you all the best and good luck. Let us know how it´s working for you.

All that said, not sure if i will continue past month 6. my crown is definitely thinner since starting.

yes it seems that this may generate some new vellus hair but, like the rest of the treatments out there, just needs something more in order to make those hair go terminal. The guy from the company that makes this stuff doesn't even update anymore, so maybe the overall results aren't as good as they had hoped. Like I said, I'll give it 3 more months, maybe it takes a few hair cycles to strengthen the follicles.
Of course it takes several hair cycles. The miniaturization process of the hair follicle took many years in general. The miniaturization process includes a gradual decrease in the number of dermal papilla cells which is the major problem. Inducing the anagen phase and triggering vellus hair growth is one thing but growing terminal hair is more difficult. Increasing the number of dermal papilla cells takes time and may not work for everybody.

I'm willing to try Cap Sensitive - but as far as I know amazon.com doesn't ship to Europe/Sweden, or do they?

Will it be available available in your online shop (functional-products.net)?

Is it just a mistake that Sanguisorba Officinalis Root Extract isn't on the ingredients list for Capillogain Sensitive on Amazon? It is in there, I hope...?

Did you use it once or twice a day?...and did you use anything else along with it? I wish the other guys would have answered those questions :?

I'll most likely switch to the Sensitive product..once the ingreds question is answered.

Thanks.. just wondering who's using it once a day and who's using it twice a day and if anything else is being used along with it. I haven't even been able to use it daily because of other things I've been using lately.

Capillogain Tonic is currently out of stock at amazon but a new batch is already under way.

The sensitive version was intended as the completely the same as Capillogain Tonic but without the Triaminodil. I don´t know why Sanguisorba is missing in the list. I will ask and inform you.

SyntheseLabRat,

I think this question has been asked earlier in this tread, but I wanted to make sure: Many of these ingredients influence growth factors in some way. Is it safe to use this product since it upregulates growth factors, such as VEGF, IGF, and KGF?

Thanks.

I just got my bottle of Cap Sensitive and Sanguisorba Officinalis Root Extract is indeed listed as one of the ingredients (last one on the list).

Here is something interesting - i received a new bottle, which is clear and can see a lot of ingredients. Assuming the ingredients at the bottom of the bottle need to be mixed, what is the best way to mix without reducing the efficacy of the tonic?

Got a question fred im not sure if you have seen the guy at youtube who posted his own video and has caused some questions from jacob which i know he has a right to do but im also trying this guys regrime and only four weeks into scalpmed which is a topical with separate topicals one called nutrisol rm and the other minoxidil 5% i posted ingredience of the nutrisol at bald truth but what im asking if we used minoxidil-plus cappillogain we may get a good result and i do know jacob does not like it though but if some of us can tolorate it we maybe on to a winner? also i cant remember if cappillogain has retinol in it as i think it may also help in getting the cap into the scalp layers better and also with mpb acne that retinol could help with?
Also is cap still available at amazon uk with the shampoo? =; =;

The missing Sanguisorba Extract in the list of ingredients was just a misprint on the Amazon page. Sanguisorba Extract is included in both versions and it is written on the bottle. We corrected the list at amazon, thanks for the hint.

You can shake a bit or better tilt the bottle a few times.

Sometimes amazon is out of stock but replacements are usually soon undr way, you may check from time to time. I don´t know what is currently in stock, just write an email to our service email address.

You can use Minoxidil products in addition to Capillogain although some people are fine with just Capillogain without Minoxidil.

The vehicle of Capillogain is very good, it does not need help from retinoic acid for increasing the penetration.
Too much retinoic acid is actually very bad for hair growth. I prefer to not use it at all. However, it may also have a beneficial effect besides increasing the penetration. So if you really want to use it, make sure you stick to the already established rather low concentration.


http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17449938

This is an in vitro organ culture, so penetration problems are not an issue, still retinoic acid improved the results.
However, in vivo retinoic acid also increases TGF-beta. This stuff has to be used with caution if used at all.

a new article:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23007396

Too much retinoic acid is also suggested as a cause for alopecia areata:

Synthese,

What do you think about me adding AHK-cu to a bottle of Capillogain. Would there be any adverse reaction? I am thinking of dermarolling with a 1.5mm roller and adding this solution 24 hours afterwards. Do you foresee any issues with this? Thank you.

Quick update. After 9 months of usage, I can definitly say that my hair has improve, but only on the crown area. Nothing to report regarding temples. I can see some mild regrowth, but overall, my front line is thining slowly... Maybe some azelaic acid incide would make the difference.
I'm runing out of product so my test ends here.
Hope it has helped some fellas there.

Hey Synthese, I saw your suspencil product on your website, but there's nothing about what is the product for. Can you tell me more about it ? Thanks

Looks like it's a silica type product...think of BioSil/JarrowSil - for hair.

I'm back on Cap after thinking I was getting some side-effects from it. Haven't noticed anything since re-starting it so it must have been something else. But still will go with the non-Triaminodil later on.
