FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is it necessary to wash your hair every day if you use Pilexil ampoules or Pilexil spray daily?

Pilexil Hair Loss lotions (Pilexil Ampoules and Pilexil Spray) do not require further rinsing, so it isn’t necessary to wash your hair every day if you don’t want to. Washing frequency will depend on consumer preference and the specific needs of each person’s hair. We recommend washing with a suitable shampoo such as Pilexil Hair-Loss Shampoo or Pilexil Frequent-Use Shampoo.

ARE PILEXIL PRODUCTS TESTED ON ANIMALS?

No, none of the Pilexil products are tested on animals.

SHOULD PILEXIL LOTIONS (PILEXIL AMPOULES OR PILEXIL SPRAY) BE APPLIED TO WET HAIR OR DRY HAIR?

Pilexil lotions should be applied directly to the scalp and not to the hair. With this in mind, it makes no difference whether they are applied to dry or wet hair, although it’s easier to apply if the hair is dry.

WHAT DIFFERENCE IS THERE BETWEEN PILEXIL AMPOULES AND PILEXIL SPRAY?

None, the formulation of Pilexil Ampoules and Pilexil Spray is exactly the same. The only thing that changes is the product packaging. Similarly, the formulation of Pilexil Forte Ampoules is the same as that of Pilexil Forte Spray.

CAN I USE PILEXIL CAPSULES OR PILEXIL FORTE CAPSULES DURING PREGNANCY? WHAT ABOUT DURING BREASTFEEDING?

Pilexil does not recommend the use of Pilexil Capsules or Pilexil Forte Capsules during pregnancy and breastfeeding. In the case of Pilexil Forte Capsules, it is advisable to discontinue use 3 months before trying to get pregnant.

We recommend the use of Pilexil Shampoo, Pilexil Spray or Pilexil Ampoules to control hair loss during such special times in a woman’s life.

CAN PILEXIL HELP ME WITH HAIR LOSS DUE TO STRESS?

One of the factors that can determine hair loss is nervousness, anxiety or stress. Therefore, our initial recommendation is to determine the cause of such stress and act on it. The use of Pilexil Hair-Loss Treatment can help you strengthen your hair and slow down or normalize hair loss, but always in conjunction with relaxation techniques or exercise that help combat stress.

DO PILEXIL CAPSULES OR PILEXIL FORTE CAPSULES HAVE A MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED TIME OF USE OR CAN THEY BE USED INDEFINITELY?

Pilexil Capsules and Pilexil Forte Capsules can be used indefinitely. However, the dosage rule that works best is four-month cycles followed by a free regimen of two to three months.

Once the hair cycle has been normalized, we recommend carrying out booster cycles by using the capsules during times of greatest hair loss, such as spring and autumn.

WHAT DIFFERENCE IS THERE BETWEEN PILEXIL CAPSULES AND PILEXIL FORTE CAPSULES?

Pilexil Forte Capsules contain two innovative ingredients to stop hair loss: Serenoa Serrulata and Tocotrienol/Tocopherol. In addition, Pilexil Forte does not contain Vitamin C or Magnesium.

Because of this difference, Pilexil Capsules are recommended for women and men who lose density and volume and want to nourish their hair in the early stages of hair loss.

Pilexil Forte Capsules, on the other hand, are recommended for preventing and stopping severe hair loss.

HOW LONG IS IT NECESSARY TO USE PILEXIL AMPOULES TO START NOTICING THE RESULTS? IS THERE ANYTHING WRONG IF I MISS A DAY USING PILEXIL AMPOULES?

Pilexil Ampoules treatment requires consistency in order to see results. Clinical trials with Pilexil Hair-Loss Ampoules and Pilexil Hair-Loss Shampoo (a combination recommended by Pilexil to obtain the best results) were conducted over a 16-week treatment period. However, initial results should already be noticeable before that 16-week period.

It doesn’t matter if you miss a day applying the ampoule. It is recommended:

– Applying one ampoule daily for the first month as a quick-start treatment.

– After the first month, applying the ampoule 3 times a week for 3 months (maintenance treatment).

CAN PILEXIL SHAMPOO, PILEXIL AMPOULES AND PILEXIL CAPSULES BE USED SIMULTANEOUSLY?

All three products (Pilexil Shampoo, Pilexil Ampoules and Pilexil Capsules) can be used at the same time if your hair loss requires it. We recommend that you consult your pharmacist for advice on which treatment is best suited to your case.

CAN BIRTH CONTROL PILLS CAUSE HAIR LOSS?

Hair loss is a multifactorial process, where both genetic (heredity) and hormonal factors, among others, play a role. The use of any medication can have an impact on the hair cycle, contributing to hair loss.

AFTER CHEMOTHERAPY MY HAIR IS GROWING WEAKER AND THINNER. CAN PILEXIL HELP ME REGAIN THE DENSITY AND STRENGTH OF MY HAIR?

Treatments such as chemotherapy often lead to effluvium-type alopecia. After stopping chemotherapy treatment, the alopecia is usually reversed and the hair tends to grow back. The speed and manner in which this recovery takes place will be influenced by many factors, many of them unchangeable. Slow but steady hair recovery indicates that the follicles are active and are gradually entering the hair cycle.

To help in this process, we recommend starting to use Pilexil Shampoo on alternate days and Pilexil Capsules every day, in order to recover the nutrient deposits of the hair structure. We would like to remind you that the recovery of lost hair is a slow process. Regardless of the treatment, the results will not be visible for three to four months.

We recommend not starting treatment with Pilexil without having finished the chemotherapy treatment first, to avoid interfering with it and reducing its effectiveness and, in addition, not seeing results, given that the effects of chemotherapy are more powerful than the effects that can be achieved by any hair-loss treatment. Please consult your specialist before starting treatment with Pilexil.

CAN THE USE OF PILEXIL CAPSULES OR PILEXIL FORTE CAPSULES STIMULATE BODY HAIR GROWTH?

The composition of Pilexil Capsules and Pilexil Forte Capsules has been specially formulated to prevent and stop hair loss at the scalp area. Before being marketed, the product was tested by specialists in dermatology, rigorously evaluating not only the efficacy data, but also the safety data. In the studies carried out, the possible growth of hair on other parts of the body in both women and men was assessed. In none of the studies carried out did any body hair appear.

Pilexil has a long history in the market and to date there have been no reported side effects such as hair growth outside the head area or excessive or higher-than-normal growth in other hair areas.

ARE PILEXIL CAPSULES AND PILEXIL FORTE CAPSULES SUITABLE FOR DIABETICS?

Pilexil Capsules contain no sugar or sugar derivatives, so can be taken by people with diabetes.
