Frequently Asked Questions
How long before I see results?
Most patients notice reduced hair loss within 3 months and visible regrowth within 6 to 12 months. Hair loss treatments work best when started early, so the sooner you begin, the better the outcome.
Are there any side effects?
Side effects are uncommon. Finasteride may cause reduced libido in a small number of men, which usually resolves if treatment is stopped. Minoxidil may cause mild scalp irritation initially. Our pharmacist will discuss all potential side effects during your consultation.
Do I need to take treatment forever?
Hair loss treatments work as long as you continue using them. If you stop, hair loss typically resumes within a few months. Our pharmacist can help you decide on a long-term plan that fits your goals and budget.
Is the consultation private?
Absolutely. All consultations happen in our private consultation room at Norfolk Street Pharmacy. Nothing is discussed at the counter, and all records are kept strictly confidential.
Can women use these treatments?
Yes, Minoxidil is suitable for women experiencing hair thinning. Finasteride is only licensed for men. During your consultation, our pharmacist will recommend the right option for you.
