About hair loss
The root of the issue
What causes hair loss?
Can hair loss be treated?
Early on, it's possible to stop or even reverse hair loss. But, at a certain point, the hair follicle also loses attachment to the small muscles in the skin (called the arrector pili muscles), which makes that hair loss permanent.
How long does it take for hair loss treatment to work?
Finasteride and minoxidil typically take three to four months of daily use to start seeing visible changes. It can take up to a year to see the maximum results. As long as you don't experience side effects, it's best to continue the medication for one full year before deciding on whether the medication is doing all it can for you. Like all medications, finasteride and minoxidil will work differently for different people. To sustain benefits, you have to continue using hair loss medication. If you stop, your hair loss may return.
Your timeline
Hair growth takes time, so here’s what to expect and when:
Share your health history and hair growth goals with a Ro-affiliated provider.
You might not see a visible change in the first two months, though some people may shed more fine hairs than before. Not to worry—this is temporary and normal.
You might notice that hair loss has slowed, stopped, or in some cases, even reversed. Remember to take a photo to track your progress.
By now, hair loss may have considerably slowed or stopped, and some people may see signs of regrowth (usually at the crown of the head). To maintain results and increase the chance of regrowth, be sure to continue with consistent daily treatment.

Common questions
What ingredients are in Roman Hair Solution Rx?
The active ingredients in Roman Hair Solution Rx are minoxidil 6%, finasteride 0.3% and tretinoin 0.025%. The inactive ingredients are propylene glycol, citric acid, glycereth-5 lactate, isoamyl laurate, and ethyl alcohol.
Finasteride and minoxidil are two ingredients that individually regrow hair in as little as 3–6 months, combined into one treatment. Tretinoin enhances the absorption of minoxidil.
What’s the difference between minoxidil and finasteride?
Finasteride and minoxidil work by different mechanisms. Finasteride protects your hair follicles from a hormone called DHT that can make hair follicles shrink and lead to hair loss. Minoxidil, on the other hand, is thought to increase the growth phase of hair follicles.
Does minoxidil work better when combined with finasteride?
Because they work in different ways, topical finasteride and topical minoxidil are often combined to attack hair loss more comprehensively. Oral finasteride is also frequently used with topical minoxidil.
What’s the difference between topical and oral finasteride?
Oral finasteride (generic Propecia) is FDA-approved for male pattern hair loss and taken as a 1mg tablet once per day. Meanwhile, topical finasteride is a compounded medication intended for hair loss treatment.
Topical finasteride contains the same active ingredient found in the oral medication, but it’s applied to the scalp using a spray instead of taken as a tablet. Oral finasteride treatment has been shown to stop hair loss in 83% of men with male pattern baldness who took it for two years.
Newer research shows that topical application is also effective; a 2022 randomized controlled trial found 0.25% topical finasteride significantly improved hair counts compared to placebo and its effect on hair density was similar to that of oral finasteride after 24 weeks.
