Are there any propylene glycol- and alcohol-free hair regrowth products available in a gel, cream, or lotion?

NOVOLUX™ Hair is an alcohol-free, propylene glycol-free compounding base built for hair growth formulations. By removing these two common irritants, it supports better tolerability while still delivering active ingredients effectively — making it a strong choice for patients who react to commercial products.

I have a sensitive scalp  is – there a hair growth formulation that won't irritate it?

NOVOLUX™ Hair base formulations are created without alcohol or propylene glycol – ingredients that often irritate the scalp. Additionally, NOVOLUX™ Hair was thoughtfully created to soothe dry, irritated, and flaky scalp, reducing discomfort while restoring overall scalp balance. This makes it possible to create a hair regrowth compound that is retinoic acid-free, propylene glycol-free, and alcohol-free— addressing sensitivities and irritation that commercial, one-size-fits-all products often can't accommodate.

What are the differences between compounding and commercial hair products? 

Commercial hair loss products typically take a one-size-fits-all approach, using fixed ingredients and concentrations regardless of individual sensitivities. NOVOLUX™ Hair features triple layer lipid nanoparticle (LNP-3) technology that delivers active ingredients like minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride deep into the targeted areas of the scalp — without relying on retinoic acid or harsh excipients like alcohol and propylene glycol. This opens the door to fully customized, tailor-made formulations built around each patient's specific needs, tolerances, and treatment goals.

I don't want a sticky, silicone-heavy hair growth product — is there a cleaner option? 

NOVOLUX™ Hair is a non-sticky, vegan, non-comedogenic, and silicone-free compounding base designed specifically for hair growth formulations. It absorbs quickly without leaving greasy or heavy residue, won't clog pores, and contains no animal-derived or silicone ingredients — making it a clean, lightweight option for patients who want an effective hair growth base without the drawbacks of traditional formulations.

Can NOVOLUX™ Hair be combined with minoxidil, finasteride, or other actives in one formulation?

Yes — NOVOLUX™ Hair offers the flexibility to combine minoxidil, finasteride, dutasteride, and other hair growth ingredients into a single formulation, maximizing convenience by eliminating the need for multiple separate products or application steps.

Can copper peptides like GHK-Cu be compounded into a hair growth formulation? 

Copper peptides such as GHK-Cu can be compounded into hair growth formulations. NOVOLUX™ Hair's triple-layer lipid nanoparticle (LNP-3) delivery system supports effective permeation and stability when combined with copper peptides, helping ensure the active reaches the scalp without compromising absorption or formulation integrity.

Can patients order NOVOLUX™ Hair directly?

NOVOLUX™ Hair is intended for pharmaceutical compounding. Patients whose prescription specifies NovoLUX™ Hair should speak with their physician or compounding pharmacist. Pharmacies can contact CNANO for ordering assistance.
