Hair Loss Product - Chronostim
Q:
My hair is very thin and I want to strengthen it. There are two products I tried before, one suggested by my hairdresser called “Chronostin” and the other one prescribed by my skin doctor, called Minoxidil, Estradiol Vateral, Esopropyl Acohol, if I read it correctly.
I would highly appreciate your advice,
Best regards,
A:
It was good that you saw a dermatologist. I am sure you have been examined by your doctor for miniaturization of the hair as part of his diagnostic for male patterned hair loss. Combining minoxidil with other hormonal medications is not proven to add any value to its effect for the treatment of hair loss. The doctor who put you on minoxidil probably diagnosed male pattern baldness. If that is the case you can benefit from using finasteride as well which is a medication with more potency in comparison to minoxidil based on several studies.
I have not heard of Chronostim which was recommended to you by your hairdresser. However, I did some research on it. Chronostin is claimed to be a solution that allows it to act on the group of factors which play a part in the loss of hair. It has both morning and evening solutions where the day one serum contains sabal enriched in lauric acid (seborrhea regulating ), tocopherol Nicotinate (microcirculation stimulating, oxygenating bulbar), glycyrrhetinic Acide béta (reinforces the activity of 5-alpha réductase), Excipient alcohol-silicone, and Perfume- hypoallergenic.
Chronostim ” NIGHT” has extract of Ruscus enriched in Neoruscine (stimulating of the VEGF), Diguanosine tétraphosphate (GP4G) (cellular stimulant), Piroctonolamine (cleansing, anti-irritant). Excipient hydro-alcoholic, Perfume- hypoallergenic.
Sounds confusing, Right? These components have not been studied through medical research as to have any effect on male hair loss in this combination.
I would stick with finasteride (Propecia) if it is OK with your dermatologist. Obviously, if you continue to have hair loss or currently have a balding area, hair transplant surgery is probably the answer to restore the balding area.

This is a great question and I often see hair loss young men in my office who require a quick fix before their wedding. I answered your question in a new post under “Hair Loss Help - Two Month before Wedding” so other viewers can read the answer too
