A user shared their experience with a Long Hair DHI Hair Transplant, receiving 2,750 grafts. They plan to continue using Dutasteride and Topical Minoxidil post-surgery.
community Planning to for Hair transplant
The conversation is about someone considering a hair transplant due to ineffective hair loss treatments, with suggestions ranging from trying a hairpiece to continuing with medications like finasteride and minoxidil, and waiting for new treatments. Some advise against a transplant due to the extent of hair loss and the cost, while others share different views on the effectiveness of transplants and non-surgical options.
community What happened with Verteporfin? I saw people were saying something positive about it one or two months ago.
The conversation discusses Verteporfin as a potential hair loss treatment, with trials by Dr. Bargouthi and Dr. Bloxham mentioned, and a suggestion to follow updates on the Hair Restoration Network site or YouTube. Preliminary results are positive, but one user is skeptical, calling it "snake oil."
community Verteporfin and Microneedling
Clinical studies by Dr. Barghouthi and Dr. Bloxham indicate that Verteporfin, when used with FUE and FUT hair transplantation methods, shows promise in hair follicle regeneration and minimal scarring due to its ability to inhibit Yes-associated protein (YAP). Microneedling at depths of 3-3.5mm, combined with Verteporfin, could potentially reactivate dormant follicles, although the optimal dosage and application method are still under investigation. Concerns remain about the DHT sensitivity of regenerated follicles, highlighting the need for further research to optimize trauma levels and Verteporfin concentrations to achieve effective and scar-free hair regeneration.
