Try sticking with min for several months to see results, as it can take up to a year. If you’re worried about fin’s side effects, you might consider topical fin or dut, which have fewer side effects. Keep in mind the initial shed from min; it’s a sign it’s working. Also, if you’re open to trying fin, it could help, but consider side effects and weigh your options.
