Does minoxidil help with eyebrow thickness and eyelashes aswell?

How long does the effects of minoxidil kick in?

what are the side effects?

the reason i need minoxidil is for facial hair/=.

Apply 1ml (about 1/4 teaspoon) of the solution or foam twice a day, in the morning and at night.
Dont use more than 2ml at once, it won't work better and would just give you side effects

it helps with eyebrows too, but it's not safe to put it near the eyes so not for eyelashes
minoxidil in foam is only for the hair tho, so if you have the foam solution don't use it anywhere else
How long does the effects of minoxidil kick in?
2 to 4 months of regular use
what are the side effects?
your hair sheds during the first two weeks of using it but that's normal
3 to 4 months after using it the hair you grew will start shedding too
minoxidil doesnt make your hair grow permanently, so you have to keep using it for the effects to last
it can give you acne where you apply it, redden your skin, make your face swell, scalp burn, make you loose more hair then usual (when you shower for example) and you can feel inflammation or soreness at the roots of your hair

you could use it for facial hair but be careful not to put it near you eyes, nose and mouth

Minoxidil 5%, put it in a roll-on with a stainless ball, apply to the face once per day and moisturize 30min after

With eyebrows yes definitely. For eyelashes too but it's not advised close to the eye

Heart palpitations so you need to take potassium as a supplement daily to avoid the side effects

Does it matter if the minoxidil is in foam, oil or whatever else specifically talking about eyebrows? would help a lot !
Normally no but the best for eyebrows is minox liquid 2% and then you put in a roll on with a stainless ball, to apply correctly
