Q. What Causes Hair
Loss?
More than 95 percent of all hair loss in men and women is
due to a condition known as androgenic alopecia, or male
pattern baldness. This condition is due to a by-product
of testosterone known as DHT,
which is produced in high quantities by the 5-alpha-reductase
enzyme found in the scalp. The binding of DHT to the genetically
predisposed hair follicle results in gradual suppression
and miniaturization of the hair and eventual shrinkage and
deterioration of the hair follicle.
Q. What is
Revivogen and how does it work?
Revivogen is a topical formula made of natural active ingredients
that have been scientifically proven to be the most potent
anti-DHT compounds available today. Revivogen Scalp Therapy
works by blocking
DHT in the scalp, decreasing the levels of the hormone
available. This allows the hair follicles to rejuvenate
and produce thicker and stronger hair, creating a fuller
and healthier head of hair.
Q. Does Revivogen have any side effects?
No, when used as directed. Revivogen’s active ingredients
are made of all natural compounds that have a long history
of use both orally and topically. The only side effect noted
with the use of this product has been transient mild scalp
irritation in less than 2% of users.
Q. What kind
of results should I expect?
After four to five weeks of using Revivogen, you should
see a significant decrease in hair loss and notice a difference
in how your hair looks and feels. After three to four months
of use, your revitalized hair will make your scalp look
fuller and denser. With continued use, your hair will stay
healthy and continue to improve.
Q. Does Revivogen work for women?
Yes, and we have many satisfied women customers. Surprisingly,
the cause of hair loss in women is the same as in men in
most cases. Fortunately for women, estrogen helps to protect
the hair follicle from the destructive effects of DHT. However,
many women develop thinning
hair and hair loss due to estrogen level fluctuations
and/or overproduction of DHT. Revivogen helps protect the
hair follicle from DHT, resulting in thicker, fuller, healthier
hair.
Q. How
is Revivogen used?
Simply apply Revivogen
to the affected area (and surrounding areas) of the scalp
at least once a day. Avoid washing your hair for at least
three hours after application so the scalp can effectively
absorb the active ingredients. You can apply Revivogen at
any time during the day, but most people prefer to use it
at night before going to bed. Read
the Detailed Instructions for more information
Q. Can I use
other hair care products or color my hair while using Revivogen?
Yes. You can use any other hair-care products while using
Revivogen, including hair color and styling products. You
can even wear a hat. If you’re going to use additional
topical treatments such as Rogaine® (Minoxidil), you
must apply them at least three hours apart to prevent any
interference with the absorption of Revivogen’s active
ingredients.
Q. Do I need
to use Revivogen forever, like with Rogaine® and Propecia®?
Once you achieve the desired results, you must continue
to use Revivogen to maintain your revitalized hair because
your body is continuously producing DHT. However, unlike
many other products, you can decrease the frequency of Revivogen
application over time by tapering off daily use and ultimately
reducing use to three to five times a week. This usually
takes up to twelve to sixteen months of use.
Q. I am using
Rogaine® and/or Propecia® and don't want to stop using them. Can I use Revivogen at the same time?
Yes. Revivogen is made of all natural ingredients that have
no side effects and do not react with other medications,
including Rogaine® and Propecia®.
You can safely use Revivogen with other medications.
Q. I recently
had hair transplants. Can I use Revivogen?
Yes. Although the transplanted hair is theoretically resistant
to the destructive effects of DHT, the hair follicles surrounding
the transplanted area may still be genetically susceptible
to DHT. If these hair follicles are not protected they will
eventually be lost, causing the need for additional transplants.
Q.
What are the atrophied hair follicles?
If DHT-related hair loss is not treated appropriately, eventually
the miniaturized hair follicles are permanently destroyed.
This process is called atrophy and the atrophied hair follicles
are replaced by scar tissue. A scalp area with hair follicle
atrophy looks bare and shiny and will not respond to any
product or medication.
Q. Can Revivogen
rejuvenate the atrophied hair follicles?
No. Unfortunately after the hair follicle has atrophied,
it is permanently lost. However, if you use Revivogen at
any point during the hair miniaturization process, the hair
follicle can be protected from DHT assault.
Q. Do I need to use a special shampoo while using Revivogen?
Four Winds Nutrition Club recommends
using its Herbal Shampoo. It is an all natural, pH balanced formula designed to promote clean, healthy hair. It has a coconut oil base and natural conditioners, as well as chamomile extract and chlorophyll.
