OVERVIEW
  • Essengen-5 NO PG FAST DRY: A professionally formulated hypoallergenic, non-greasy, fast drying 5% Minoxidil.

    This product is perfect for both men and women who are allergic to regular liquid minoxidil such as Rogaine or Kirkland minoxidil because of the propylene glycol in it. This product is free of propylene glycol (PG, PPG). Glycerin is used to replace propylene glycol to avoid scalp irritation.  It is estimated that 2 out of 10 users are allergic to propylene glycol. This product is also very suitable for those who do not like the greasiness of regular minoxidil and wish to have a clean and fast drying minoxidil. 

    New: Product with glycerin is usually associated with greasiness and slow absorption. We recently improved this formulation and made it dry extremely fast. We are confident to say that this new formula is the fastest drying and cleanest 5% minoxidil, liquid or foam, on the market. It dries even faster than 5% minoxidil foam. The product used to be called Essengen-5 NO PG. It was changed to Essengen-5 NO PG Fast Dry  in January, 2018 after the formulation had been improved.

     

    If you want to use a product with 5% minoxidil only (without any other ingredient like azelaic acid, or finasteride)  that is clean, non-greasy, fast drying, and good for sensitive skin or scalp, this product is your perfect choice. Because this product is in liquid form, it works better than 5% minoxidil foam due to better penetration and absorption.

    If you want to use a minoxidil product with higher strength or with additional ingredients, you can check out other products we offer. You can see the comparison of all the products here

     

    This product is also very suitable for using on the face to grow a beard. New Jan 2023:  we launched a new product called Maxogen-B, a 5% minoxidil product that is not only PG free but also alcohol free. We also boost its effectiveness by incorporating biotin and caffeine into the product.

Results in 3 months
These are my results after 3 months on Minoxidil. More specifically, The MinoxidilMax formulation version WITHOUT Propylene Glycol. I used the regular Kirkland brand minoxidil but after 5 months or so my scalp began to get extremely irritated and Itchy as HELL. By the end, my scalp was covered in acne sort of? They were like pimples or blisters but they wouldn’t pop no matter how hard i squeezed them. So it was most likely inflammation due to the irritation. I didn't get on Minoxidil for a cool 7 months after. Tried Kirkland brand again and the inflammation immediately came back within weeks. So I searched for one without PG (Propylene Glycol). The only one i could find was this one by MinoxidilMax. I highly highly recommend it for anyone who is extremely sensitive to propylene glycol like I was.

Finally no rash
I've tried different minoxidil on the market most of them claiming there was no propylene glycol but I always ended up with a rash on my face. This product however didn't cause me any issues after 3 weeks in. So looking forward to seeing more hair growing. Cheers.

I finally found the correct formulation
I have used topical minoxidil for over 10 years. Approximately 9 months ago I noticed significantly more greasiness with the Rogaine, Kirkland and other generic formulations. After searching online I located this product which I have found very useful. There is none of the greasiness that weighted down my extremely fine hair.

New hair is growing and shedding of old has nearly stopped
I started using this several months ago after the regular minoxidil made my head itch. This feels fine, goes on easily, dries quickly, and I can still wear my hair as normal. Thus far I have about an inch or more of new growth, and the shedding of old hair has nearly ceased.

essengen-5
Great products. Have tried may different minoxidil products over the years, but most have caused irritation after 2 weeks or so. Essengen-5, dualgen-5 no pg & dualgen-5 fast dry all work well without causing irritation. They dry fast, can use them in the morning without affecting the appearance of my hair. With them drying so quickly there can be some buildup but using a shampoo with ketoconazole every week or keeps the scalp clear
