The science
behind our treatments
Hundreds of studies have been made on hair loss treatments, but the only two treatments that have been
clinically proven are Oral Tablets and Minoxidil.
Sons is the Irish Licence holder for both.

2. Use of Oral Tablet in the treatment of men with Androgenetic Alopecia – Journal of the Academy of Dermatology (1998)

Is this plan right for me?
If you have dandruff or any other scalp condition caused by yeast and funghi, such as Malassezia (which often the cause of dandruff), Sons Ketoconazole can help you treat the issue, and prevent it in the future.
Do not use if you are allergic to ketoconazole or any of the shampoo’s ingredients. If you have a severe scalp condition or open wounds, consult a healthcare professional before use.
