FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT TELOSTATIN

• Who should not use Telostatin?
  Telostatin should not be used by people less than 18 years of age. People with nutritional deficiencies or medical conditions that require the use of medications that cause hair loss may not benefit from the use of Telostatin. Persons with damaged hair from hair care products or harsh grooming practices may not benefit from the use of Telostatin.
• Will Telostatin work for me?
  Each person using Telostatin will experience a different amount of hair regrowth and decreased hair loss. To ensure that Telostatin has the opportunity to work, make sure that Telostatin is massaged into the scalp with each application. People with little hair loss and those that are beginning to experience hair loss will likely have a better response to Telostatin than people with long-standing hair loss.
• How soon can I expect results from using Telostatin?
  Results with Telostatin are threefold - longer hair growth phase, hair regrowth and hair retention. Some people may notice a substantial decrease in hair loss with minimal hair regrowth, and vice versa. Others may notice substantial hair regrowth and decreased hair loss. There is no way to predict who will experience which effect. It is important to remember that hair grows only ½ to 1 inch per month, so noticeable hair regrowth will occur slowly. When using Telostatin as directed, most people will first notice a decrease in hair loss and some visible hair regrowth within three months. For other people, visible changes in hair regrowth may take up to six months.
• Can I use Telostatin to prevent hair loss?
  Yes. Studies with Telostatin have revealed a noticeable decrease in hair loss with continuous use. Since the loss of between 50 to 100 hairs per day is normal, and more is typical of thinning hair, Telostatin should reduce hair loss numbers to within 50 to 100 hairs per day with continuous use as directed. It is unlikely that Telostatin will stop all hair loss.

• I read that estrogen can increase hairloss. How does Telostatin combat that?
  Rather than suppress hormonal factors that cause hairloss, Telostatin prolongs the anagenic (or growth) phase and retards the catagenic (rest) phase. By doing so, the hormonal factors don't get the chance to come into play and cause hair to fall out.

• If Telostatin is stimulating hair regrowth, what will the new hair look like?
  New hair growth will first be soft, thin and downy-like. With continued use of Telostatin, this new hair should resemble the rest of the hair on your scalp. Existing hair on the scalp that has been thinning will gradually become thicker.
• What will I first notice when I start to use Telostatin?
  You will first notice a decrease in hair loss as Telostatin re-regulates the hair cycle. You may wish to monitor this progress by trapping hair as it sheds in the shower and counting the shed hair on a daily basis.
• How long do I have to use Telostatin?
  If you notice hair regrowth or decreased hair loss, you will have to use Telostatin continuously in order to maintain your new hair growth.
• What happens if I completely stop using Telostatin? Will I keep the new hair?
  You will need to use Telostatin continuously in order to keep your new hair growth and optimize hair retention. If you stop using Telostatin, new hair will begin to fall out in 3 to 4 months as the hair cycle is completed.
• When do I use Telostatin?
  Use Telostatin once daily. Apply it two to four hours before going to bed. This will allow Telostatin to dry on the scalp.
• How long will one bottle of Telostatin last?
  Telostatin is supplied in an 8 ounce bottle. Each bottle should last 90 days when used as directed. What if I miss a dose or forget to use Telostatin? If you miss a dose of Telostatin, simply resume your regular nightly application.
• Can I use Telostatin more than once daily? Will it work faster, better?
  There is no benefit to using Telostatin more than once daily. It will not work faster or better.
• Can I apply Telostatin and wash my hair an hour later?
  No. For Telostatin to work its best, you should allow four hours for the product to dry on the scalp.
• What kind of shampoo should I use with Telostatin?
  You may use any kind of shampoo with Telostatin.
• Can I use hair sprays, mousses, conditioners, gels, etc.?
  Yes.
• Can I have my hair colored or permed or use hair relaxers while using Telostatin?
  You may color or perm your hair while using Telostatin. However, you should be aware that Telostatin will not prevent hair loss caused by hair or scalp damage that may occur with these processes. You should not use hair relaxers while using Telostatin. The residual chemicals left behind from the relaxing process will denature the active ingredients in Telostatin.
• Can Telostatin produce unwanted hair growth?
  Unwanted hair growth on the face and body has not been reported in men. Studies with women are pending. If you notice unwanted hair growth, you may decrease the amount of Telostatin that you apply to the scalp or the frequency of product application. You should also take care to wash your hands after application.
• Will Telostatin grow hair on all parts of my scalp?
  Telostatin has been shown to be most effective at the crown of the head, just the same as with Propecia and Rogaine. However, there is evidence that Telostatin is also effective in the mid-scalp region, but hair should be expected regrow there at a slower rate than at the crown. A mid-scalp study is pending.

• Can I use Telostatin for baldness or hair loss in babies or children?
  No. The causes of baldness and hair loss in babies and children are different from the causes of hair loss in men and women of 18 years or more.
• Can I use Telostatin in combination with other hair rejuvenation products?
