Why liposomal finasteride and minoxidil may be better than traditional topical solutions. Research/Science 6/8/2025
Liposomal formulations of finasteride and minoxidil may enhance drug delivery to the skin and hair follicles more effectively than traditional solutions, potentially improving treatment outcomes. However, more human clinical trials are needed to confirm these benefits.

Liposomal carriers for topical finasteride offer better targeting, reduced side effects, and less irritation compared to alcohol-based solutions, but availability and cost may limit their use. Minoxidil can dissolve in liposomal carriers, enhancing delivery and stability.
community Has anyone used the new liposomal topical fin from Hasson and Wong?
The conversation discusses a new liposomal topical finasteride from Hasson and Wong, available in Canada and Italy, soon in the US, costing $40/month. It claims to reduce scalp DHT by 50% without affecting serum DHT, potentially benefiting those who can't tolerate oral finasteride or RU58841.
community to all people who cannot tolerate anti androgens (loe dose topical fin, pyrilutamide, CB) i am getting desperate, looking for a solution
The user tried Minoxidil without success, and Finasteride worked but caused sexual side effects even at a very low dose. They are seeking alternative treatments for hair loss as they cannot tolerate anti-androgens and are also in therapy for mental health.
community Physician here AMA – 30M oral Fin 1-1.25 mg daily
Hair loss treatments, specifically the use of finasteride, microneedling and potentially oral minoxidil. People discussed their experiences with finasteride, its effects on sexual behaviors, as well as potential solutions such as tadalafil or using other growth factor signal peptides for hope in curing male pattern baldness.
community So we have 20k dollars human like machines available but no new effective treatment for hairloss since finasteride :)
There have been no new effective hair loss treatments since finasteride, despite technological advancements. Current treatments include finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841, with ongoing challenges and potential future solutions in research.
