Does Revivogen Protect the Hair Follicle?
Information presented by HairlossTalk.comUser Question: Propecia protects the hair follicle. Minoxidil only forces the dying follicle keep producing hair. End result on Propecia is a healthy follicle. End result on Minoxidil is a dying follicle on life-support. Which side of the fence does Revivogen fall? Is it simply coercing the follicle into activity, or is it actually protecting the follicle from further damage?

Dr. Shargani: At this time Revivogen is very similar to finasteride in regards to mode of action, i.e. inhibiting 5 AR types I and II. It also contains ingredients that prevent DHT's attachment to the androgen receptors. Your statement about the benefits of Rogaine and Propecia is not entirely correct and we can not tell you exactly which one of these scenarios apply to Revivogen We believe that all of these products can perform these functions to some extent but you are welcome to make your own assessment based on these facts.
