Dr. Rania Mousa General Medicine
If you are asking about the vichi product for hair loss ,well it contains an ingredient named stemoxydine .
Stemoxydine has not yet been widely studied for hair loss treatment. It has been designed to be used topically. The stem cells are influenced and regulated by creating hypoxia. This seems to awaken dormant stem cells and produces increase numbers of follicles and also increased density.That what the cosmetic company assume and publish.No further studies are done medically .There seems to be no danger in using this product except maybe to your purse. the medicine approved by FDA is Rogaine (Minoxidil) which has been proven to increase the diameter of the hair shaft and Propecia (Finasteride)slows to stops the miniaturization process in some cases.
So it may and may not ,no studies done except from the cosmetic company ,doctors usually prescribe minoxidil for hair loss beside other treatments.
