The three headline results

These are the results FOLIGAIN® reports from the 2019 study of the full TRIOXIDIL® routine.

Fuller-looking volume and thickness

Expert evaluators saw noticeable improvements in visible volume, thickness, softness, shine and overall scalp condition. These gains were statistically significant at each monthly assessment — so the improvement built steadily rather than appearing only at the end.

Less breakage when brushing

Participants shed noticeably fewer broken and loose hairs during a controlled brushing test. Less breakage helps hair look fuller and less sparse, especially in areas affected by early thinning.

More visible hairs in thinning areas

Close-up photographs of the same measured patch of scalp showed more visible hairs over time — an early result, already seen at two months — supporting the look of better density and coverage.

Reading the numbers wisely

These are averages from a group of 60 people, measuring how hair looks. Your own results depend on your hair, your starting point and how consistently you follow the routine. If you're losing hair actively rather than noticing thinner-looking hair, pairing the routine with OTC Minoxidil — or talking to a dermatologist — may be the right next step.

Frequently asked questions

How soon did people see a difference?

Visible hair count had improved by 75% at the two-month mark; volume and breakage results are reported at four months.

Does 180% mean my hair will be almost three times thicker?

Not exactly — it reflects the average change in visible volume as scored in the study. Think of it as a strong, measured improvement in how full hair looks, not a guarantee for any one person.
