hi im really worried about a side effect im getting from minoxidl ,i have been using it twice a day o.5 ml each application for 2 months ,i think its really working well.but ive noticed serious wrinkles under my right eye with alot of dryness .i dont have any wrinkles or lines on my face,so this nasty wrinkles must have just appeardd,its only my right eye.ive stopped using minoxidl 2 days ago as im worried it will get worse .i really dont know what to do will the wrinkles go now ive stopped using it ,ive stopped nizoral too as that may have caused it.

my worry is can minoxidl cause wrinkles ,im guttted stopping as it was really helping i think i was a good responder,im using kirkland liquid.

WHEN WILL THE WRINKLES GO OR IS IT PERMANENT.thanks for listening

ps none ever dripped on my eye,but some liquid has ran down forehead but i wased it off properly .and my hands feel very dry and cracked like xma im guessing thats from rubbing minoxidl in with my fingers

hi mate, imy advice to you, try lowering the application to once a day.

I too had wrinkles under my eyes which disappeared a month after I stopped minoxidil. Had been using it for a year till I weaned off it in November last year

Its been 4 months off it and have lost a ton of hair. It took away my hairline with it. However, in the past 3 weeks I'm not loosing much hair.

I do a tug test at different times of the day and I can swear its nearing 3 weeks and I shed no more than 10 hairs on an avearge. However, I also need to tell you that this is my 10th month on finpecia, so it may have something to do with it....

What is depressing is that I have no regwroth now for the past 3 months. I am a diffused thinner so I can easily make out if I am regrowing or not.

I am going to give it another 2 months and if no regrowth then I plan to start xandro 15 % plus.

REASON: I have assessed what I may have done wrong on minoxidil and it could be either or both of the below

1. Used to apply it to slightly moist hair to increase absorption

2. Always used the pne with ppg which left my skin dry and had headaches.

If however, I can see some regrowth on finpecia in 2 months (i.e 12 month mark) I won't go back on minoxidil

P.S - I also use tricomin spray sometimes but I don't feel it helps with regrwoing hair

thanks mate so it really is a minoxidl side effect,im thinking about staying off it for a week or 2 until the swelling and wrinkles go ,then start using once a day .and dont use after the shower
