Finasteride + Minoxidil Scalp Intradermal Injections?

[greekgodx]

Has anyone heard of it or tried it? According to the doctor it would have no side effects but have the same positive effects of taking it orally since only the scalp area would have the DHT inhibitor.

Also those aren't the only things in the mix but the only ones I recognized.

This is actually something I have been interested in for a while. I believe they call this mesotherapy. Where is it offered and what is the price? Basically what are the details such as how often do you have to get the injections and do you need to also take topical minoxidil on a daily basis? Or just when it is time for injections???

I believe it was 3 sessions in a month each around 300USD each (not american so just converting) then one every 6 months. And I would have to use minoxidil and a specific shampoo after the sessions for a few days, then it would be up to me to use it or not but it was advised to keep using it.

Hmmm see this is tricky because you won't know how effective the injections are if you are simultaneously using topical minoxidil on a regular basis...i can tell you if you decide not to use the daily minoxidil and just get the injections, and they end up being effective, then you will have a huge following and many, including myself, would consider doing same.
