Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Let me first say I was skeptical of this product before ordering it. I have been battling hair loss for 5 years and have tried various different things. I should note that I did experience success using brand name Avodart. But due to extremely high cost and sexual side effects I was desperate to seek out a topical alternative. Which lead me to Revivogen. After using for 3 months and doing lots of internet research I have come to the conclusion that this product is useless and bordering on a scam. First off the product DID NOT do anything to slow or regrow hair for me. But more importantly what I found on the net is discouraging. I will list out my reasons for this below... 1. Topical Absorption - Yes, Revivogen does have an impressive ingredient list. Most of these products have been shown in a lab to have some anti-androgen properties. The key thing to understand here is "in a lab". There is no scientific evidence whatsoever that these ingredients will lower DHT in a human body, LET ALONE if they are applied topically. There are many things that have systemic effects when taken orally but have no efficacy at all when used topically. This can be seen in many vitamins as well as spirinolactone which is an extremely powerful anti-androgen. However, as many hair loss sufferers have discovered it has no effect used topically. Moving on... 2. Where are the good reviews? - Revivogen has been around for some time and if it is as effective as they claim there should be lots of internet success reviews backing this up. I have scoured the net and at best have come up with people saying they "think it works" or it "should work" based on it's ingredients. You'd think on sites like Amazon there would be lots of people backing this product. When I did come across positive reviews they appeared to be fake and scripted. Which is something I will address next. 3. Duplicate reviews - In searching the net for reviews on Revivogen I found one website that had an abundance of them. I won't name the site but it sounds very similar to "Follicle". This website has 60+ reviews for the product with an average of 3.5 out of 5 stars. I read every one. People either are very enthusiastic about this product and encourage people to keep using it because it takes time, or they hate it and call it a scam. I wasn't sure what to think. Then I noticed that there were 4 duplicate reviews. What I mean by this is there were 4 reviews with identical reviewer names and locations but that each had very different positive reviews. Oops Revivogen, you messed up either by human error or by programming your bot incorrectly. This CLEARLY shows someone is trying to boost the amount of positive reviews Revivogen has on the website by using fake reviews. Who do you think is doing it? I doubt it's a customer who loves their product so much they decided to fake a bunch of positive reviews for them. 4. 2 more things - These next to points are more speculation but are worth noting. It has been said (though I haven't found it) that Revivogen has made claims on their website that their product is endorsed by the talk show host of the Bald Truth. A quick search on the Bald Truth's website finds a response to this by the host saying a very long time ago he thought natural topical DHT inhibitors might have some effect but now he does not believe this at all and that he does not endorse their product and that he is surprised they would say so. Secondly I located a website which reviewed Revivogen and addressed the issue of topical absorption not likely working. Now when you go to the article it is a greyed out with a note saying the article has been removed because they received pressure to remove it. Who would pressure them to remove it? And why? I think the answer is obvious. In closing I want to address that some of you will say that if the product doesn't work then they would have gone out of business. Think about it, with all the men everyday for the first time noticing they are losing hair all they need to do is convince you to buy their product once or a few times. After milking you for several hundred dollars before you give up there is a whole new customer base ready to throw out a few hundred in cash. It's an endless cycle. I wish all of you the best of loss in your hair loss battle. But I hope this review will help you to move on to more effective/proven solutions rather than waste your money and precious time.
