Before explaining whether one should use or get the desired benefits from using Neo Hair Lotion, Dr John Watts gives an overview of the working of the science and how some drugs like Minoxidil and Finasteride get US FDA approvals and others do not for a better understanding of the viewers.

“The US FDA only approves two drugs that promote hair growth and control hair loss. They are Minoxidil & Finasteride but there are hundreds of unapproved hair products like shampoos, creams, lotions and serums that exist and people use them but they are not clinically and scientifically proven with trials explaining their side effects. There are no scientific literature or medically documented case studies on their usage by patients to authenticate their benefits and adverse effect,” informed Dr John Watts.
