Q: I heard that Rogaine only works on the crown and not on the front or top of the scalp. Is this true?
A: Rogaine (Minoxidil) has the potential to work where ever there is miniaturized hair, either the front, top or crown (however, it will not work in areas that are completely devoid of hair).

Does Rogaine Hair Loss Medication Only Work on Crown?
April 24th, 2007Are There Side Effects from Hair Loss Treatment with Laser Comb?
March 5th, 2007Q: Are there any side effects to the laser comb?
