Q&A: Revita shampoo for women with hair loss

Posted by on June 30th, 2008 at 02:40pm

Question:

I have a question about Revita shampoo for female hair loss. I
bought some the other night, but before I use it, I just want to know
whether there are any ingredients in that shampoo that are addictive? By
addictive, I mean, whether I stop using Revita, will my hair loss get worse?
I’m girl and I’m not going bald, however my hair has thinned by the
past 2 years. So is that a good shampoo for me?

Answer:

Though there is some evidence that the ingredient ketoconazole
can be a “weak” DHT inhibitor and be reasonably effective in treating
androgenic alopecia (female and male sample baldness), in my opinion,
it may be increasingly effective in conjunction with other hair loss treatment
solutions.

There is nothing in Revita shampoo
that is “addictive” however, be aware that hair successfully treated or
restored with any non-surgical hair loss treatment will become
dependent on continual use. whether Revita works for you, and you stop, you
will lose any hair regrowth and hair loss will continue as genetically
programmed. Hair that is not genetically programmed to thin or fall out
will not be impacted whether you continue or stop using Revita shampoo.

I hope that helps.
