6 / 6 resultscommunity Verteporfin and KY19382 experiment
The conversation discusses an experiment involving hair loss treatments, including the use of Verteporfin, KY19382, dutasteride, oral and topical minoxidil, AHK-Cu, and microneedling. The experiment aims to test the effectiveness of these treatments in promoting hair growth and healing without scarring, with updates planned every few months.
community So the cure for Nw7 is verteporfin
Verteporfin, used with dermal incisions by doctors like Dr. Melissa Toyos, is suggested as a promising treatment for high Norwood hair loss, with some users reporting significant regrowth. However, there is skepticism about its effectiveness due to concurrent use of other treatments like dutasteride and oral minoxidil.
community What happened with verteporfin?
Verteporfin, combined with microneedling, shows promise for hair regrowth by allowing hair follicles to grow in wounds, but it's expensive and painful. Pai-1 inhibitors may also help prevent hair loss by degrading fibrosis, and some users continue using minoxidil alongside these treatments.
community New Preprint: Retinoic Acid Supports Verteporfin-Induced Regeneration
Verteporfin followed by retinoic acid improves wound regeneration in mini-pigs. Retinoic acid does not significantly enhance regeneration in rabbits.
community Any new Verteporfin updates?? Does anyone have any new information on the trials?
Verteporfin updates for hair loss and its trials. Users also express interest in exosomes.
community Any updates on verteporfin? Or when should we expect an update?
