Any feedback, experience?  Does it work?  Side Effects?

I didn’t work for me over 12-18 months, despite the list of natural DHT blockers as long as your arm. Just goes to show that throwing 5 or more different blockers into a product doesn’t guarantee anything.

It’s also expensive and messy to deal with.

It is basically the commercialized version of zix, probably doesn’t have as good of track record either.

The consensus is that it’s not that effective, you may have slight increase in thickness, and way over-priced.

I just started using revivogen this week. I took before pictures, and I’ll make sure to take after pictures in 6 months. I don’t think it’s going to reactivate dormant follicles, remove fibrosis, or cause much regrowth outside the 30-month window. However, I did visit a doctor and we used a “ProScalp” to magnify my scalp. What we found were hundreds of vellus hairs, some medium-size blonde hairs, and thick terminal hairs. Plus every few follicles independent on if they were vellus/blonde/terminal you could see a red dot at the base of the hair (suggesting inflammation). When I get these photos from her in a few weeks, I’ll post them on a new thread.

I’m hoping revivogen will just keep the existing hairs that I have strong, and hopefully cause a reverse-miniaturization of the medium blonde and vellus (small white) hairs.

In addition to revivogen, I’m using regenepure 3x a week, microneedling before revivogen scalp therapy 2-3x week, doing a pumpkin enzyme peel on my scalp 1x week, brushing with my boars hair brush 1x a day, and doing scalp massage every morning after I shower with a little bit of rosemary or lavender essential oil mixed with jojoba oil. Soon I hope to add-in LLLT with the laser messiah as well.

tanner I hope it works out for you man. Keep us updated.

I was thinking of using Revivogen myself, but I thought it was an overexpensive version of Zix too. I recall when people were adding extra things to Zix it was less effective…I hope this not the case for Revivogen. But, I suspect if it doesn’t work that some of the ingredients might interact with each other in a negative way.

I’ve been using revivogen for two weeks almost now. My hair looks a little healthier, and it’s very easy to apply. I really think you don’t need to waste $ on the shampoo/conditioner. The scalp therapy is really 95% of the magic. So far I have noticed a little redness and a few pimples, but I don’t think that’s a bad thing. Overall I’m happy - hopefully in 6 months I’ll be able to post some good before and after photos.
