5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Will minoxidil cause your skin to age from the collagen inhibition?
Minoxidil is unlikely to cause skin aging at typical doses, and concerns about collagen inhibition are mostly unfounded. Users suggest using sunscreen and tretinoin for skin health, and some combine minoxidil with finasteride for hair maintenance.
community 2 months back on Fin/Min after stopping treatment for 2 years. First pic is a bit deceptive because I had a 1mm buzzcut and lighting right above me, but it's definitely filling back in.

community Minoxidil inhibits lysyl hydroxylase which is needed to produce collagen. If I take 2,5...5 mg of minoxidil every day can I cause my skin to age prematurely?
Oral minoxidil is effective for hair loss and unlikely to significantly affect collagen synthesis, making it a safe option without causing premature skin aging. Users report positive hair regrowth without noticeable skin aging.
