Fluoroscopy-Induced Morphea

Minoxidil can cause dark circles and skin issues, and users suggest reducing dosage or switching to foam. Supplements like vitamin C, glycine, and MSM may help with collagen production to reduce these side effects.

Minoxidil may inhibit collagen synthesis at high concentrations, with anecdotal reports of skin aging but limited research. Dermatologists and other specialists show little interest in studying minoxidil's side effects.
