Abstract
Compound (2-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(4-X-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-3-(2,2,2-perfluoroacylamino)propionamide) applied topically, specifically inhibits and/or eliminates cutaneous androgen receptors and thus finds cosmetic use in skin afflictions associated with excess androgens such as hair effluvium, hirsutism, acne and androgenic alopecia.
