Kopdil
KOPDIL is the only treatment for male-patterned and female-patterned hairloss that has
been approved by FDA, and has extensive, recognized clinical trials carried out. When
applied to the scalp, KOPDIL works by widening the blood vessels and increasing blood
flow to the hair follicles. This enhanced circulation is believed to nourish the follicles,
potentially prolonging the growth phase of the hair cycle and promoting hair regrowth
inindividuals experiencing hair thinning or pattern baldness
