OVERVIEW
  • Essengen-F is a topical finasteride only product (without minoxidil).

    This product has 0.2%  finasteride, equivalent to 1 mg finasteride per 0.5 ML of solution.

    One unit is 2 oz (60 ml), sufficient for 4 months of supply with once daily usage (0.5 mL per application). 

    If you have a large hair loss area and 0.5ml is not sufficient to cover it, you can use our PG Solvent to dilute this product to make 0.1% finasteride. Therefore, you can use 1 ml and still receive 1 mg per application.

    This is a fast drying, non-grease topical product. It dries in a few minutes. 

     

    This product is also convenient for those who want to receive more than 1 mg finasteride daily dosage.

    Following is the volume/dosage exchange rate.

    0.5 mL: 1 mg finasteride

    1.0 mL: 2 mg finasteride

    2.0 mL: 4 mg finasteride

     

     

EFFECTIVE INGREDIENT
  • 0.2% Finasteride ( 2 mg of finasteride in every 1 ML).

     

INACTIVE INGREDIENTS
  • Water, Alcohol, Propylene Glycol (low amount)

    The amount of propylene glycol (PG) in this formula is extremely low. Even if you are extremely sensitive to PG, it is highly unlikely that you will be allergic to this formula.  In the rare event that you do experience an allergic reaction to this product, you can always contact us for a refund.

HOW TO USE
  • Using the included dropper, apply up to 0.5 mL Essengen-F directly on the scalp in the hair loss area, once daily.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
  •  

    How long does one unit last?

    A: One unit is 60 ml (2oz). If you used 0.5 ml per application as recommended, it will last for approximately 4 months. It costs less than one dollar a day.

     

    I found that 0.5 ml is not sufficient to cover all the hair loss area, should I use more?

    A. Please note that only a very thin film is needed to cover the area of hair loss. Typically, 0.5ml is ample for most individuals. Properly applied, this amount should effectively cover the hair loss area, even for those with advanced hair loss (such as Hamilton-Norwood scale stage IV - V).

    Should you have an extensive hair loss area that necessitates more than 0.5ml, our PG Solvent or PG Free Solvent can be utilized to dilute the product, reducing the concentration and allowing for a larger volume of use while maintaining the same finasteride daily dosage.

    1). To make 0.1% topical finasteride, mix one unit of Essengen-F (60 ml) with one unit of PG solvent (60ml),  and you get 120 ml of 0.1% topical finasteride (1 mg per ml) (Be sure to order a 4 oz bottle for the convenience of making this mixture).

    2) To make 0.05% topical finasteride,  mix 20 ml of Essengen-F (you can use the included dropper to measure the volume) with one unit of PG solvent (60ml),  and you get 80 ml of 0.05% topical finasteride (0.5 mg per ml) (Be sure to order a 4 oz bottle for the convenience of making this mixture).

    3) To make 0.025% topical finasteride,  mix 8.5 ml of Essengen-F with one unit of PG solvent (60ml),  and you get 68.5 ml of 0.025% topical finasteride (0.25 mg per ml).

    4) To make 0.01% topical finasteride,  mix 3.1 ml of Essengen-F with one unit of PG solvent (60ml),  and you get 63.1 ml of 0.01% topical finasteride (0.1 mg per ml).

    5) To make 0.005% topical finasteride,  mix 1.6 ml of Essengen-F with one unit of PG solvent (60ml),  and you get 61.6 ml of 0.005% topical finasteride (0.05 mg per ml).

     

    How long will I see results?

    A: It usually takes 3 to 4 months to see results. In other words, you should see some difference after finishing one unit. Consistency is the key to the success. To obtain the best result, it is important to use it every day. It is recommended to use it in the evening and wash your hair in the morning (no need to use shampoo every time. Rinsing out with water will be fine).  

     

    Will I experience any regression if I switch from finasteride pill to Essengen-F?

    A. This is product is perfect for those who are taking finasteride pills and concerned about its side effects. One is not expected to have any regression as a result of switching from finasteride pill to Essengen-F. 

     

    Is this product stable? Can I stock more than one year of supply?

    A. The product has a shelf life of 3 years when stored at room temperature. It is perfectly fine to purchase one year of supply (3 units) at a time. No need to store in a refrigerator. 

     

    Why should I use this Essengen-F instead of finasteride pill?

    A. The shorter answer is that Essengen-F works the same as finasteride pill (Propecia as brand name) while less likely to have side effects.  That is because the topical formulation has more of a localized effect, so systemic side effects (side effects which effect the entire body), such as decreased libido; erectile dysfunction and those seen with oral form may be avoided. For more detailed information, read here.  

     

    I have a large hair loss area. 0.5 ml is not enough to cover all the area. What should I do?

    A. 0.5 ml should be able to cover a pretty large area when it is applied properly. In addition, it is not necessary to cover all in each application. You can alternate the areas in different applications to ensure the product is evenly distributed overall. 

    You can also mix 2 oz Essengen-F with 2 oz of PG solvent. You end up with a 4 oz 0.1% topical finasteride solution, which will allow you to use 1.0ml per application per day and one unit still lasts for 4 months. You can order the PG solvent here.

     

    How can I make a lower concentration of topical finasteride?

    A. The concentration of finasteride (0.2%) in this product is suitable for the majority of people. Some people who are super sensitive to finasteride may want to have a lower concentration. This can be easily achieved by mixing this product with our PG Solvent.

Topical finasteride only product
It took me quite a while to find this product. I do not want to use any minoxidil and I am scared of the side effects of oral finasteride. This is a perfect product for me. Used this product for only 3 weeks. Too early to tell if works. But the product dries super quick, very easy to use. so far I am confident.

4 month review on topical finasteride
After using this product for almost 4 months now i can say without a doubt its the most effective product that ive ever used. The first picture is of me during the first week of when i first started using. I also shaved my head to a specific length so to compare it to now. I have used no other products other than this and it just goes to show how effective and powerful it is. Certainly i will be using this again.

Very pleased
Very pleased with the product virtually side effect free, as a female in my fifties with very thinning hair this product has been god sent, not only did it stop the hair loss but in addition has increased hair growth despite using it only every other day. Very easy to apply no harsh smell, after applying I can literally comb my hair and go out for the evening. I am happy that they offer just Finesteride alone, I have low blood pressure and couldn't chance minoxidil,excellent product for thinning eyebrows too, the product may sound spendy but it lasts forever and its excellent quality i have spent more on just shampoos that promised hairgrowth with no results,this product produces results fast and steady, they have a permanent customer right here

This is the Best!
Honestly, this is the best. I believe the 'DHT itch' is real (google it if you don't know). I'd have a constant itch, even though my scalp looked perfectly healthy. My scalp was so itchy and I was experiencing extra hair loss. Essengen-F helped take care of both problems.. Thank you! I mix one full bottle of Essengen-F with one full bottle of PG Free Solvent (which is sold on this site. This mixture makes 0.1% of topical finasteride per 1mL). I apply 2-2.5mL amount every night. No side effects at all. Dear Minoxidilmax, PLEASE DON'T EVER STOP MAKING THIS PRODUCT! I am a lifetime buyer.

Fantastic Product
I have been using this product for just over 2 months and see exceptional results. The shedding quickly stopped and the new hair looks healthy and thicker. I switched to the topical version to alleviate the side effects of the oral version. This has also proven to be a good decision as the side effects including water retention and sexual have both been alleviated.

I cannot recommend it enough!
I began using Essengen F after a very bad phase of hairloss. I had been losing my hair for around two years, but it progressed so rapidly this year in April. I went to get a blood analysis and found out that my DHT level were well above normal . I was very reluctant on taking finasteride due to the known side effects, that's when I found Essengen-F, a topical finasteride solution. Now on my third month and the results have been impressive. I cannot recommend it enough!
