A 12-week study was conducted on subjects with androgenic alopecia. Subjects were broken up into two groups.
Group A did a micro-needling (derma rolling) treatment weekly along with Minoxidil 5% twice a day.
Group B used only Minoxidil 5% twice per day.
Results:
At the end of the 12 weeks, Group A, who was using Minoxidil 5% + micro-needling, reported a 50% greater improvement in hair count than Group B, who only applied Minoxidil 5% alone.

Another recent study showed that Minoxidil + micro-needling had a 100% response rate over 6 months and resulted in an overall 25% improvement in hair count.

Conclusion: Micro-needling (Scalp Rolling) helps stimulate growth factors such as collagen and proteins for hair growth. When combined with Minoxidil 5%, the results drastically improve, resulting in a greater hair count in just a few weeks.
Other studies found that Minoxidil's effects may increase up to 400%+ by adding micro-needling to your regimen once a week.
We've combined the power of micro-needling with Minoxidil. However, we didn't want to stop there. That's why we introduced VITAFOAM. A Minoxidil blend with natural organic extracts that nourish the scalp block DHT and have additional growth factors for a holistic hair growth approach.
