FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions
  1. Why should I use Folixir to prevent hair loss?

    [Close]

    Because, Folixir set was just developed to prevent Androgenetic Alopecia (Male Pattern Hair Loss) which occurs due to genetic tendency and hormonal factors. Folixir products set is made of nature’s most potent active ingredients and utilizes cutting-edge nanotechnology. Thanks to nanotechnological natural active ingredients, it not only combats hair loss but also provides new and healthy hair growth.

  2. What is nano-liposome technology (Novasome® Technology) governed in Folixir products?

    [Close]

    Folixir products govern nanotechnological compounds in tiny vesicular forms called nano-liposomes. These nano-liposomal vesicles are one millionth of a milimeter in size and incorporate active ingredients that combat hair loss. They are a lot more smaller than cells in hair follicles and coated with natural materials that are compliant with the cell membrane. Therefore, these nano-liposomes can easily penetrate into deeper layers of scalp and get inside of hair follicle cells thanks to membrane-vesicle interaction and affinity. This enables hair loss treatment superior to any other treatment method available. Active ingredients incorporated in these tiny vesicles have strong anti-DHT properties and also increase VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) synthesis in hair follicles in a way to restructure capillaries that feed the hair follicle and provide neovascularization. Folixir products completely eliminate any and all the factors that cause Androgenetic Alopecia and hair loss.

  3. What is the most important difference between nanotechnological Folixir and other products that incorporate classical technologies?

    [Close]

    Nanotechnological Folixir can deliver a lot more active ingredients to hair follicles than classical drugs do thanks to nano-vesicles (i.e. nano-liposomes called Novasomes®) incorporated. Having microscopic size and physiologic structure of the outer coatings, Folixir can deliver trillions of active compounds directly into the hair follicle cells. Whereas, classical drugs incorporate compounds a lot bigger in size and volume, and they cannot penetrate well into the deeper layers of the scalp. Hence, they cannot reach hair follicles well, not even get inside the cells. Therefore, treatment with classical drugs is not adequately effective. Treatment with nanotechnological Folixir is a lot faster and effective. Clinical studies and in-vitro tests have proved that Folixir is 300% more effective and reliable than classical  haircare cosmetics.

  4. Which region of the scalp is Folixir effective?

    [Close]

    Folixir is different than many other anti-hair loss products considering that Folixir is effective on vertex, crown and anterior. In other words, Folixir is effective on all regions that may be affected by Androgenetic Alopecia.

  5. Do Folixir products have any systemic side effects?

    [Close]

    Since Folixir serum eliminates DHT formation locally, it does not have any systemic or hormonal side effects at all. Folixir tablet does not contain any anti-DHT ingredients and it is very safe to use as well. All of the active ingredients incorporated in Folixir are natural and herbal. Folixir products do not contain active ingredients that are known to have side effects such as Finasterid, Minoxidil, Asiasari Radix, Paraben, Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS) and Sodium Laureth Sulphate (SLES). Efficacy and reliability of Folixir products are tested and approved by clinical and in-vitro studies.

  6. Does use of Folixir decrease libido (sex drive)?

    [Close]

    Folixir products do not have any systemic hormonal side effects. Therefore, use of Folixir does not decrease sex drive. Since Folixir does not contain Finasterid (active compound incorporated in Propecia) and is effective only locally, use of Folixir does not cause sex drive deficiency, sperm quality deficiency, gynecomasty and hypospadias.

  7. Does use of Folixir affect body hair other than scalp and does it cause hypertrichosis?

    [Close]

    Hair on scalp and body hair have different genetics and physiology. Therefore, Folixir is only effective on scalp. Unlike Minoxidil (active compound incorporated in Rogaine), it does not cause hypertrichosis or unwanted hair growth on human body. Besides, Minoxidil may cause serious side effects such as palpitation and hypotension.

  8. Is Folixir safe for women?

    [Close]

  9. How often should I apply Folixir serum?

    [Close]

Gently massage the solution onto the scalp with your fingers until it completely dries out. Do not wash or rinse hair at least 3 hours after you apply Folixir serum. It is recommended that you apply Folixir serum at night and wash or rinse your hair with Folixir shampoo in the morning.

  10. Can I skip use of Folixir serum 1 – 2 days in a month?

    [Close]

    It does not negatively affect the treatment regimen if you skip use of Folixir serum 1 -2 days in a month. However, this should not be repeated too often. If you skipped use of Folixir serum 1 – 2 days in a month, do not use more than 2 ml of Folixir serum the other day to compensate.

  11. Why should I use Folixir Dietary Supplement Tablet?

    [Close]

    Folixir Dietary Supplement Tablet is a natural fortification that activates and helps hair follicles to produce more healthy, thicker and well-structured hair strands.

  14. What should I expect from Folixir products?

    [Close]

    Folixir products prevent hair loss and support new and healthy hair growth when used regularly. Within 3 months, hair loss stops. When Folixir products set is used regulary for 6 months, new and healthy hair re-growth starts. For the best result, Folixir products should be used regularly and continuously. Results may vary.

  15. In the first weeks of use of Folixir, is it normal to have an increase in hair loss?

    [Close]

    Some people can face an increase in hair loss in the first weeks of Folixir usage. It is the result of  leaving strands from scalp that are already in the hair loss period before using Folixir. The reason is not an increase in the number of lost hair strands. This is due to start of Pre-Anagen phase (pre -production phase) in the hair follicles and leaving of hair strands that are pushed by new hair strands formed under the scalp. The process is called “shedding” and it signals the production of new and healthy hair growth by means of Folixir treatment.  You should continue using Folixir at this phase.  As a result, hair loss will stop in the following weeks and new hair growth will start.

  16. How long does it take for my hair to grow?

    [Close]

    In the first month of Folixir usage, new hair growth takes place under the scalp, since follicles plumb the depths of the scalp with their roots. After the first month, new hair appears as very colorless or light-colored (i.e. vellus hair) on the surface of scalp. With continuos use of Folixir products, this fine hair becomes thicker, colored and turns into normal hair strands. After this stage, hair grows 1 – 1.5 cm, on average, each month. Generally, visible hair re-growth starts wihtin sixth month.

  17. How long does it take the parts of the scalp to replenish?

    [Close]

    The very recently lost hair grows first. According to this order, hairless parts of the scalp starts to fill up from outside to the center and inner parts

  18. How long does it take to see expected and satisfying results?

    [Close]

    The time span for reaching satisfactory results changes from person to person. It depends on the size of the hairless area and history of your hair loss. Nevertheless, it is recommended  to use Folixir products set regularly for about 6-8 months in general to get satisfying results .Even the person who has the problem of hair-loss for ten years can see new and healthy hair re-growth by using Folixir products set.

  19. Should I continue to use Folixir after hair loss stops and hair re-growth starts?

    [Close]

    Male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) is a genetic and hormonal condition. Since you are not able to change your genetic structure and hormones that cause hair loss, you should continue using Folixir products even after you get the expected and satisfiying results. However, as a maintenance treatment, using Folixir products set 2-3 days a week might be enough for the permanence of the results.

  20. Are Folixir products duly legalised?

    [Close]

    Yes, Folixir products are duly legalised.

  21. What is the difference of Folixir from those that contain Minoxidil as an active ingredient?

    [Close]

    Minoxidil is a synthetic drug used in anti-hypertensive drugs used by hypertensive patients. But, it is also known to incease vascularization around follicles (vasodilatation) as a side effect. However, Minoxidil can not fight against DHT hormone, the main reason of male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia). As a result, sudden and mass hair loss occurs when Minoxidil usage is abandoned. Also, Minoxidil is known to have many side effects some of which are; hairing on undesirable areas of the body, hypertrichosis, headache, cardiac rhythm disorder, visual disorder, hypotension, swimming of the head, heart throb, irritation on hair scalp (searing, itching, etc), dandruff and photoallergic reactions. Lactating mothers should not use Minoxidil since it can pass to the breast milk. In addition to these side effects, during the tests on animals, sudden deaths were observed in cats after topical administration of Minoxidil (Ref: Suspected toxicosis after topical administration of minoxidil in 2 cats: Camille DeClementi, VMD, Keith L. Bailey, DVM, PhD, DACVP, Spencer C. Goldstein, DVM and Michael Scott Orser, DVM - From the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center, Urbana, IL, University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine, Urbana, IL, Biscayne Animal Hospital, North Miami, FL and Alouette Animal Hospital, Maple Ridge, BC.; Journal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care; 14 (4): 287–292).
    Proanthocyanidin, Adenosine, L-arginine and Panax Ginseng extracts available in Folixir also show the same effects of Minoxidil by increasing vascularization around follicles through increased VEGF synthesis in follicles. Also, conducted tests have proven that Procyanidin that is used in Folixir increases hair growth by 160% in comparison with Minoxidil and in this sense, it is much more effective than Minoxidil (Ref: Proanthocyanidins and Grape Seed Extract - by Lisa Rapport, BPharm, MRPharmS, and Brian Lockwood, PhD, MRPharmS). Moreover, Folixir combats DHT hormone potently and it is also very effective on all of the factors that cause hair loss. Folixir does not cause any systemic side effects while providing these results.

  22. What is the difference of Folixir from the products that contain Finasterid as an active ingredient?

    [Close]

    Finasterid is a synthetic drug that is primarily used in the treatment of prostate cancer. Since Finasterid is also effective on the DTH hormone, it is also used as a hair-loss treatment. There are two types of enzymes that convert Testosterone to DHT: 5-Alfa-Reductase Type 1 ve 5-Alfa-Reductase Type 2. But Finasterid stops DHT formation by inhibiting only 5-Alfa-Reductase Type 2 enzyme. Whereas, the enzyme that is intensively available in the scalp is 5-Alfa-Reductase Type 1. So, Finasterid can not sufficiently supress DHT formation in the scalp although it is influentally effective in supression of DHT formation in prostate and genital region. Furthermore, it might cause serious side effects. Some of these side effects are impotence in men, decrease in the number of sperm (oligopespermia) and gynaecomastia. Women should definitely not use Finasterid. They should even not touch Finasterid since it is absorbable through skin. During pregnancy, it is possible to face with serious problems. If the unborn offspring is male, serious genital problems such as hypospadias might be encountered.  

  23. I currently use Finasterid and/or Minoxidil. Can I also use Folixir?

    [Close]

    It is possible to use other products while using Folixir but use of Folixir products set is sufficient  alone to prevent hair loss and observe new and healthy hair re-growth. The usage of other products may cause side-effects and these products can not even provide as good results as Folixir does.

  24. How many hair loss a day can be accepted as normal?

    [Close]

    Daily hair loss differs from person to person. So, it is not true to give an exact number. Hair is also lost in its normal, healthy lifecycle and then, new hair grows in return. Consequently, there is certainly no zero hair loss. To talk about hair loss problem, there must be no replacement of lost hair strands with new ones or new hair strands must be fine, light-colored and weak. The best way to understand whether you have a hair loss problem or not is to apply “pull test”. If you feel pain when you pull your hair from different parts of your head 8-10 times and there are in total 2-3 hair strands in your hand, this means that you do not have a hair loss problem. But if your hair strands come easily to your hand in almost every pull, this might be the signal of hair loss problem. The region where hair loss occured is also important for diagnosis. In androgenetic alopecia, hair loss generally happens at temple and hill, not on top of ear and tape.

  25. Is there a relationship between hair loss problem and hair lipoidosis (excess sebum and oil secretion)?

    [Close]

    DHT that causes hair loss problem is also the reason of hair lipoidosis and as a result, some people can face both of these problems at the same time.

  26. Does Folixir have an effect on dandruff and hair lipoidosis (excess sebum and oil secretion) problem?

    [Close]

    Folixir Anti Hair Loss Shampoo prevents dandruff and lipoidosis on your scalp.

Other Questions
  1. What is Dihidrotestosterone Hormone ( DHT ) ?

    [Close]

    DHT  is a powerful form of Testosterone (Androgen).  Although, DHT has many useful functions in  the body, it has negative effects on follicle cells of men and women who are inclined to have hair loss. DHT cause new hair growth to stop due to suppression on follicle cells. As a result, alopecia occurs.

  2. What is the effect of Folixir serum and Folixir shampoo on DHT hormone?

    [Close]

    Folixir serum and shampoo deliver active anti-DHT substances to the targeted follicle cells through patented FNDS* (Follicular Nano Delivery System) and powerfully help hair follicles to relieve DHT suppression on these follicles. Thus, protected hair follicles restart normal hair growth since they will no more be exposed to DHT pressure.

  3. Can hair follicles that are relieved of DHT suppression produce new hair as strong and healthy as the former ones ?

    [Close]

    Natural and active ingredients in Dr.Meral's Elixir® Nº 23, Nº 21, Nº 19 ve Nº 17 very effectively and quickly support new, healthy and thick hair growth in additon to healthy and shiny hair strand formation. This successful process goes on with the regular use of Folixir products.

  4. Does the baldness of scalp mean that hair follicles in that region have died (atrophy)? Are Folixir products effective in such case?

    [Close]

    Baldness of scalp does not mean that hair follicles have died. The only way to understand whether follicles have died is by having a biopsy, conducting a histopathological test involving the removal of cells or tissues for detailed examination. Therefore, to say that hair follicles are dead by merely looking from the outside is scientifically wrong. On the contrary, in our clinical tests, we observed very successful new hair re-growth even on scalp with hairless smooth areas and areas with very fine, colorless or light-colored hair (i.e. vellus hair). This situation means that hair follicles on hairless smooth areas have not died, but they are in the phase of shedding or resting (telogen phase) due to genetic and hormonal suppression. Folixir products, with their unique active ingredients and nanotechnological agents that can penetrate into hair follicle cells, awake the follicles and make follicle cells enter into hair production (anagen) phase. During clinical tests with Folixir, hair re-growth is observed even on people who have been bald for more than 20 years.

  5. Does strong massage applied to scalp increase the efficiency of Folixir Intensive Anti Hair Loss Therapy Serum?

    [Close]

    Active and other ingredients in Novasome® forms can reach targeted follicle cells without the need for the strong massaging on the scalp thanks to patented FNDS® (Follicular Nano Delivery System) technology used. So, it is enough to apply Folixir serum softly with fingertip massage and let hair scalp absorb it.

  6. Should my hair be clean and dry before using Folixir Intensive Anti Hair Loss Therapy Serum?

    [Close]

    For better absorbtion of Folixir Intensive Anti Hair Loss Teraphy Serum into hair follicles, hair should be clean and dry.

It is recommended to use Folixir serum at night and Folixir shampoo in the morning daily.

  7. Can I apply Folixir serum onto wet hair?

    [Close]

    Folixir serum is effective through absorption to the scalp. If your hair is wet, efficiency of absorption will decrease. So, it is recommended to apply Folixir serum onto dry scalp.

  8. Can I dry my hair with hair dryer after using Folixir serum?

    [Close]

    If you dry your hair with hair dryer after using Folixir serum, efficiency of Folixir serum will decrease due to evaporation. Therefore, please wait for your hair to dry itself after using Folixir serum.

    [Close]

    You can use hair gel, mousse and spray while using Folixir products. However, these chemicals can block the pathway that goes through hair follicles. As a result, we recommend you to cleanse your scalp from biological dirt and sebum and chemical wastes such as gel and mousse by washing your hair with Folixir Anti Hair Loss Shampoo before applying Folixir serum onto scalp. After you apply Folixir serum and your hair dries, you can use hair styling products.
