Has anyone had acne-like reactions from Minoxidil? These.. things appeared this morning on the areas where I've been applying Rogaine 5% for six days.

It appears to me that you have shaved your head with a razor prior, Some of the hair's may have become ingrown in the follicles. Other folicles may have accumilated dirt etc. So Im not so sure it's minoxidil causing the acen, then again maybe it is. If your really worried about it go see a dermatologist who specialises in hair.

Ah, those pimples luckily went away again.

My head should be used to being shaved by now - but then again, I've used the same blade for too long. :S
