The FAQs

What is AlphaMane, and how does it work?

AlphaMane offers specialized hair restoration treatments designed for both men and women. Our product uses clinically proven ingredients to combat hair loss and promote regrowth. The treatment is applied topically to the scalp, working directly on hair follicles to stimulate regrowth, improve hair thickness, and prevent further hair loss.

How do I get started?

Getting started is easy! Simply take our 5-minute online survey, and a licensed medical professional will review your responses. If youโ€™re a good candidate, our partnered doctor will issue a prescription and we’ll begin delivering your treatment right to your door.

How does the process work?

The process is simple and convenient:
Complete a quick 5-minute online survey to assess your hair loss condition.
A licensed medical professional reviews your responses and, if you are a suitable candidate, issues a prescription.
Your treatment is dispensed and delivered directly to your door each month.
When your treatment is finished, you’ll take a follow-up survey to assess your progress and determine if you should continue the treatment.

What type of hair loss does AlphaMane treat?

AlphaMane’s products are designed to treat male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia), the most common cause of hair loss in men. For females it targets thinning hair in women, promoting thicker and healthier hair growth.

Can I use AlphaMane if Iโ€™m already bald?

If you’re completely bald and your hair follicles are inactive, AlphaMane is unlikely to regrow hair in those areas. However, if you’re experiencing thinning or early-stage hair loss, AlphaMane can help prevent further loss and encourage new growth in thinning areas. The earlier you start treatment, the better your chances of regrowth.

How long does it take to see results?

Results vary by individual, but most users begin to see noticeable improvements within 2 to 6 months of consistent use. In the early months, you may notice an improvement in hair thickness, texture, and density, with regrowth becoming more visible over time.

Are there any side effects?

Side effects are rare and usually mild, but may include slight scalp irritation or redness where the product is applied. These effects are temporary and typically subside with regular use. Our topical treatments reduces the risk of systemic side effects that are more common with oral medications.

How often should I apply AlphaMane?

AlphaMane should be applied once to twice daily to the scalp, focusing on areas where hair loss is most prominent. Follow the specific instructions provided with your product to ensure optimal results.

How long do I need to use AlphaMane?

Consistency is key with AlphaMane. To maintain your results and prevent further hair loss, continued use is recommended. Once you stop using the treatment, hair loss may resume. Many users continue with the treatment long-term to keep their hair regrowth stable.

Will I need to see a doctor in person to get a prescription?

No. The entire process, from consultation to prescription, is handled online. Youโ€™ll complete a short survey that will be reviewed by a licensed medical professional. Based on your responses, the doctor will issue a prescription if you’re a suitable candidate.

How is the treatment delivered?

After your prescription is issued, your treatment is dispensed and shipped directly to your door via our trusted courier service. Deliveries occur every month, so youโ€™ll always have a fresh supply to keep your treatment consistent.

Is AlphaMane safe to use with other medications?

AlphaMane is a topical solution and generally safe to use alongside other medications. However, itโ€™s always a good idea to consult your doctor or our medical team if youโ€™re currently taking other treatments, especially if they relate to hair loss.

Can women use AlphaMane?

Yes! AlphaMane’s products are specifically formulated for women as well. It excludes ingredients like Finasteride, which is not suitable for women, and focuses on promoting hair growth and thickness, addressing the unique needs of female hair loss.

What happens after 6 months?

At the end of your 6-month prescription, weโ€™ll prompt you to complete a follow-up survey. This helps us assess how well the treatment has worked for you. Based on your progress, the doctor may issue a new prescription or adjust your treatment plan as needed.

Iโ€™m experiencing redness and tenderness on my scalp after starting AlphaMane. Is this normal?

Yes, mild redness, tenderness, and irritation can occur in the first few weeks of using AlphaMane, especially due to the presence of Tretinoin, which enhances Minoxidil absorption. This reaction is temporary as your scalp adjusts.

How to Reduce Irritation:

โœ… Apply once a day instead of twice for the first week, then gradually increase.
โœ… Ensure your scalp is completely dry before application.
โœ… Avoid using harsh shampoosโ€”opt for a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo.
โœ… If irritation persists after 4 weeks, contact us for further guidance.

Initial Application & Reactions

What should I expect after applying AlphaMane’s treatment plan for the first time? It is completely normal to experience a mild burning, itching, or tingling sensation after the first few applications of AlphaMane. This is primarily due to the presence of Tretinoin, which is included in the formula to enhance absorption and stimulate the scalp. Tretinoin increases cell turnover and can temporarily cause sensitivity as your skin adjusts.

Is this considered an adverse reaction? No. These symptoms are part of a typical adjustment phase and are not classified as adverse reactions. Most users find that these sensations subside within a few days to weeks as the scalp becomes accustomed to the treatment.

What can I do if the sensation is too uncomfortable? If your scalp feels too sensitive, you can reduce application to once a day or once every second day for a week or two, and then gradually increase usage to twice per day for maximum effectiveness. This gentler approach helps your skin build tolerance without compromising the effectiveness of the treatment.

Does this affect the money-back guarantee? Our 6-month money-back guarantee applies to users who have used AlphaMane’s treatment consistently for the full duration as recommended, without visible results. Discontinuing treatment after one or a few applications due to normal initial sensitivity does not qualify for the guarantee.

Is there anything I should avoid during this phase? Avoid using harsh shampoos, exfoliants, or other active treatments on your scalp while your skin adjusts to AlphaMane. Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo and avoid scratching or rubbing the scalp.

If youโ€™re unsure whether what you’re experiencing is normal, feel free to contact us directly. Weโ€™re happy to help guide you through it.
