Minoxidil is bad for your skin and there isn't any evidence that 3 times a day is any better than twice a day as it has a good half life. So stick with twice a day unless you want to ruin your face for no benefit.

You could get a higher % minoxidil. Topically the halflife of min is 23 hours I think. So even at twice a day is loading the system. I use it once a day and my skin looks like sh*t. It's likely not goING to be a sprint it's a long distance run that will get you what you want. So pace your self. Are you derma rolling ? For obsorbtion get .5mm or lower.

The 22 hour half life of minoxidil makes anything more than 2x a day pointless. Better off adding something like dermarolling for absorption purposes as others are saying

Exactly or up the dose from 1 ml to 2 or 3ml
