Minoxidil is a vasodilator which widens the blood vessels and provides better blood flow to the hair follicles. Finasteride is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor which blocks the production of a male hormone in the scalp that stops hair growth thereby reversing the balding process and preventing further hair loss.
