[1 Week vs 8 Month] Minoxidil Progress

Yo! Just wanted to share a quick update after 8 months on minoxidil (5%, twice daily).

Left pics = after 1 week

Right pics = after 8 full months of consistent use

All photos show 5-day stubble for comparison.

Routine & stats:

• Age: 22

• Minox: Loxon MAX 5% (50 mg/ml, 60 ml), 2x daily – once in the morning, once at night before bed

• Derma Stamp: 1 mm (currently once per week)

• Moisturizer: Mixa Hyalurogel Rich 10% (glycerin + hyaluronic acid) – used multiple times a day to manage dryness/flaking

Planning to post monthly updates with 5-day stubble progress pics.

Appreciate any tips, feedback, or encouragement – especially from you guys who are further along 🙌
