5 / 5 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 Topical Minoxidil 5% since March but does seem to be improving much.
Minoxidil 5% alone is not enough for significant hair regrowth; combining it with finasteride or dutasteride is advised. A hair transplant might be needed, depending on baldness extent and donor area quality.
community Looking for old hairloss forum post: A very balding mad lad tries derma rolling. He used such excessive, extreme force It looked like a violent crime scene. Proceeds to have most miraculous hair recovery I've seen. (Graphic).
A user recalls an extreme microneedling method for hair recovery, which is not recommended due to its intensity. Other users discuss safer alternatives like minoxidil, finasteride, dermastamps, and microneedling with devices like the Dr. Pen for effective hair regrowth.
community Wtf have we been doing for the last 30 years
Hair loss treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and dutasteride work but have side effects. A permanent cure is still not available due to the complexity of hair loss and limited investment.
community Any New Findings or Interesting Research?
The conversation is about seeking new research on hair loss treatments beyond the commonly known ones like Minoxidil and Finasteride. Additions to the list of treatments include topical caffeine, alfatradiol, fluridil, stemoxydine, and upcoming treatments like TDM-105795 and verteporfin.
