Product introduction

BlackCrown 2% Solution should only be applied directly to the scalp area in the amount and in the way specified on the label or by your doctor. Clean and dry your scalp before using it. It may take approximately 2- 4 months to notice any hair growth. The first growth may be soft, colourless, and barely visible. Using more than recommended will not speed up hair growth and may increase the likelihood of side effects. This medication must be used continuously to maintain hair growth. Tell your doctor if your condition does not improve or worsen after using it for 4 to 6 months.

The most common side effects of this medicine include itching, excessive hair growth, rash, and dermatitis. In case of accidental application in other areas, it may result in unwanted hair growth. Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water if you get it in your eyes, mouth, or broken skin. Talk to your doctor if you are bothered by the side effects or if they do not go away.

People under 18 or over 65 should not usually use BlackCrown 2% Solution. It may also not be appropriate if your hair loss is due to medications (such as chemotherapy) or any nutritional deficiency. You should also not use this medicine if you have high blood pressure or use other creams or lotions to treat other scalp conditions. Talk to your doctor if you have heart disease or blood circulation problems.

Uses of BlackCrown Solution

Benefits of BlackCrown Solution

Treatment of Hair loss
BlackCrown 2% Solution is a medicine used to treat common hereditary hair loss. It can prevent further hair loss and help hair to regrow. It works by increasing blood flow to the hair follicles on your scalp, which prevents hair cell death and also enhances new hair growth. It is most effective for baldness or thinning at the top of the scalp, but less effective at the front or for receding hairline.

Benefits are less likely if you have been bald for many years or have a large area of hair loss. BlackCrown 2% Solution is not suitable for sudden or unexplained hair loss. It is considered a safe medicine. There are separate products for men and women, and you should follow your doctor’s instructions carefully while using BlackCrown 2% Solution. Regrowth of hair improves your appearance, boosts your confidence, and enhances your social life. Use it regularly to maintain hair growth and to get the maximum benefits. Consult your doctor if you notice any changes in the hair growth while using BlackCrown 2% Solution.

Side effects of BlackCrown Solution

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

Common side effects of BlackCrown

Itching
Hypertrichosis (excessive hair growth)
Dermatitis

How to use BlackCrown Solution

Use this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use.

How BlackCrown Solution works

BlackCrown 2% Solution is a potassium channel opener. Its vasodilation action expands the blood vessels. Therefore, when it is applied to the scalp, it helps to increase blood flow. This increased blood flow provides more nutrition and oxygen to the hair follicles, which prevents hair cell death and also enhances new hair growth. This is how it works to treat your alopecia (hair loss).

Quick tips

Wash your hands before and after application.
It should only be applied directly to the scalp. If BlackCrown 2% Solution accidentally comes in contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth, flush the area thoroughly with cool tap water.
Do not shampoo your hair or use a hairdryer for 4 hours after applying BlackCrown 2% Solution as it can reduce the effectiveness of the medicine.
During the first 2 weeks of application, your hair fall may increase. This is normal and is a sign that BlackCrown 2% Solution is working.
Take care that BlackCrown 2% Solution does not trickle down onto your face as it may cause undesirable facial hair growth.
