6 / 288 resultscommunity PP405 Update and My Take on Pelage
Pelage Pharmaceuticals raised $120M for their hair loss treatment, PP405, showing strong investor confidence despite limited data. There is skepticism about its efficacy and long-term effects compared to treatments like GT20029.
community Will PP405 need to be used indefinitely, like minoxidil?
PP405 may not need daily use like minoxidil, but finasteride might still be needed to maintain hair regrowth. PP405 reawakens dormant hair follicles, potentially offering a long-term solution, though not a permanent cure.
community Is PP405 marketed as an alternative to finasteride? Will we no longer need to crush dht?
PP405 is discussed as a potential alternative to finasteride, but its effectiveness and market availability are uncertain. Users share experiences with finasteride, minoxidil, and topical treatments, noting side effects and application techniques.
community Can we get a reality check on PP405?
PP405 is a promising hair loss treatment that may outperform minoxidil and finasteride by reviving dormant follicles and promoting significant regrowth. Results from ongoing trials are awaited, with a potential market release between 2028-2030.
community Story time! The Great Unbalding (PP405)
PP405 is a promising new hair loss treatment that may reactivate dormant hair follicles without side effects. It could surpass traditional treatments like minoxidil and finasteride if successful in further trials.
community If PP405 does revive "dead" hair follicles would DHT blockers theoretically be enough to maintain that new hair
PP405 may revive dormant hair follicles, and DHT blockers like finasteride or dutasteride could maintain new hair. Combining PP405 with minoxidil might be optimal, but long-term effects and continuous use are uncertain.
