Some old packages of Spectral DNC had clogging problems and the spray did not work well after a period of time. The manufacturer has redesigned it and now comes with an all new, improved package without any application problems.

Rogaine is a 5% Minoxidil solution approved by the FDA as a treatment for hair loss. Rogaine® does not contain any other active ingredients. Spectral DNC® uses the highest quality research grade Minoxidil combined with Aminexil - the only other compound clinically proven to re-grow hair. Spectral DNC® also contains Retinol, a Vitamin & Mineral complex, highest purity herbal extracts, and Copper Peptides. All the active ingredients are encapsulated in DS Laboratories microcapsules.

When deciding to use Spectral DNC®, it is important to have realistic expectations. Hair grows at a rate of approximately 1 cm per month and you will not see immediate hair growth. In fact, during the first 2 weeks of treatment you may actually notice increased hair loss as old hair are being pushed out and the hair follicles start growing new hair. Do not become alarmed with this and just stick to the treatment. You can expect to replace hair lost within the 6 months to 1 year of treatment.

The response to treatment is different for every individual. However, you can expect to completely inhibit hair loss within just 2 -3 weeks of use and start seeing new hairs after approximately 2 months of use. You will at first see "fuzz" hairs that are light in color, these hairs will eventually become normal hair. Full hairs may be seen to grow as early as 4 months into treatment, although the full effect is usually achieved between 8 and 12 months.

Yes. You can skip treatments for one or several days without reducing effectiveness. If you miss an application, do not increase your dose the next day to make up for it. Simply continue with the normal treatment schedule.

Spectral DNC contains herbal extracts and vitamins which are known for their safety especially in topical use. The other active ingredients have been tested in clinical studies and have been shown safe. Minoxidil has been on the market for nearly 20 years and used by millions of people with extremely low incidence of side effects.

Spectral DNC has been specifically developed for men and is not recommended for women. Spectral DNC for women is currently under development and expected to hit the market in the next 6 months.

Spectral DNC ia a clear, orange-colored solution to be used for external application only. Apply 10 sprays of Spectral DNC two times a day to the scalp and rub in. Do not use more than twice a day.

Most of the side effects in Spectral DNC are due to the use of Minoxidil 5% and are very similar to side effects reported by Rogaine® users. In some people this can be a simple irritation, in others it can be an allergic reaction. A small percentage of people experience dizziness and/or shortness of breath. These effects occur because Minoxidil can lower blood pressure.

If you experience itching and flaking then try applying less Spectral DNC. You should try to gradually increase until you reach the normal dosage once the flaking or itching goes away. If you experience dizziness or shortness of breath, consult your doctor. Minoxidil can cause your blood pressure to drop and you should have your blood pressure checked to see if you have low blood pressure. You should not use Spectral DNC if you have low blood pressure.

Spectral DNC® is significantly more effective then Rogaine® or DERCOS Aminexil. Many users who did not respond to the Rogaine® treatment will respond to Spectral DNC® and have a much bigger chance of growing normally thick and healthy hair. You can expect dramatic results from your Spectral DNC® treatment.

The ideal Spectral DNC® candidate is someone with little hair loss or at the beginning stages of hair loss. It is much easier to prevent hair loss then to grow new hair. If you have a large bald spot for longer then 15 years then Spectral DNC® may not work.

If you have advanced stages of hair loss as shown in this diagram or you have had hair loss for more then 15 years, it will not be possible to re-grow all of your lost hair. It may be necessary to combine your treatment with Spectral DNC® with Propecia®. It is necessary to evaluate the benefits versus the risks before taking on this treatment program.

While there is no evidence that coloring or perming hair or use of hair relaxers can affect hair loss, it is generally not recommended for people with hair loss. If you are experiencing hair loss then perming and coloring hair is not recommended. However, if you insist on using these treatments then they will not interfere with Spectral DNC.

You should apply Spectral DNC after blow drying. Blow drying can cause some of the solution to evaporate and is not recommended.

Wet scalp will actually increase the penetration and make the effects of Spectral DNC several times more powerful. This also dramatically increases your chances of getting side effects from Minoxidil in Spectral DNC. If you do not notice any adverse side effects from the use of Spectral DNC you may want to try using it on wet scalp right after showering to further increase its effectiveness.
