Avacor® is the brand name of a line of products designed for both men and women to treat hair loss. The Avacor Physician's Formulation® is the only Avacor® product containing the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drug minoxidil
, proven to regrow hair. Avacor's topical solution for men consists of 5% Minoxidil; Avacor's topical solution for women consists of 2% Minoxidil.
Avacor® is sold by Avacor Products LLC. Avacor® is a full line of hair care, hair health and hair loss prevention products. Each product is marketed differently as each is formulated to achieve different results.
Avacor's most well known product is the Avacor Physicians Formulation® which contains Minoxidil - a drug approved by the United States Food & Drug Administration to "stop hair loss and regrow new hair." The Avacor Physicians Formulation® is the bioequivalent to Rogaine® and comes in two strengths - the 5% (extra strength) Minoxidil topical solution for Men and 2% for Women.
Next Avacor sells their "All-Natural Nutricap" which is a dietary supplement formulated to foster and maintain a healthy hair follicle. Its proprietary herbal formula helps to keep the hair follicle in a healthy condition.* The Nutricap contains a specific combination of Saw Palmetto, Keratin, Resveratrol, Bilberry, and Ginkgo Biloba. A new and improved version of the Avacor All Natural Nutricap will be hitting the market in October 2011 when Vitamin B12 and Biotin will be added to the formula.
Since it is best to apply the Avacor Physicians Formulation® to a clean, dry scalp, Avacor® offers a Scalp Detoxifying shampoo that is specially formulated to remove dirt, oil as well as other pollutants and residues from the scalp, resulting in a cleaner scalp to which the topical solution is then applied.
Avacor also has a “hair care” line consisting of Boost! by Avacor® Hair Thickener, The Avacor Thickening Shampoo and Volumizing Conditioner, as well as an Avacor Styling Gel.
Boost! by Avacor® is a unique proprietary formula that immediately adds volume and texture to fine or thinning hair.
The Avacor® Thickening Shampoo is formulated to gently cleanse and add body to flat, lifeless hair, providing volume without weighing down hair. While the Volumizing Conditioner is designed to give you a fuller, thicker, stronger, healthier-looking, hair while restoring shine as you condition.
The Avacor® Styling Gel gives your hair terrific volume and great hold without sticky build up.
The Avacor® brand was previously sold by a company named Global Vision Products. Global Vision Products Inc went bankrupt in 2007 and the new owners and managers continue to rebuild the brand today.
