Ummm....yeah, probably. If my theory is correct about how topical minoxidil doesn't really interfere with the fundamental balding process but simply gives you a temporary cosmetic improvement in the appearance of your hair (if you're lucky) for a limited amount of time, wouldn't you consider that to be pretty much a waste of time and money? :dunno:

What links are there b/w minoxidil and aging? You sound like you're being a huge wimp. If you're afraid of meds just go bald dude.

I meant premature skin aging btw. I've read lots of stories on the internet about how people have developed wrinkles and such after using minoxidil for a while. I believe there have been studies that show minoxidil inhibits collagen sythesis.
