Hello,
I would recommend you to apply minoxidil 2 per cent lotion on the affected areas of the scalp and take hair supplements like tablet follihair once daily. You need to continue these for 4-5 months to see significant results.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
