The case of a 78 year old man who accidentally regrew his hair (published in the British Medical Journal) Chat 10/26/2025
A 78-year-old man regrew hair after suffering burns, suggesting that injury-induced healing processes might trigger hair growth. Microneedling and other treatments like minoxidil and finasteride are discussed as potential methods to stimulate similar regrowth.

Oleic acid and ethanol are being considered for hair regrowth, with some users planning to self-experiment. There is skepticism about their effectiveness, and ongoing use of treatments like finasteride and minoxidil is mentioned.
community Finasteride can revive up to 7 year old dead hair
Finasteride and minoxidil can revive hair dormant for up to 7 years, with microneedling enhancing regrowth. Users report significant hair regrowth even after long periods of baldness.

The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.
community Tazarotene shows strong standalone hair regrowth potential, not just a Minoxidil enhancer. Backed by VEGF, HF regeneration, and angiogenesis pathways. Here’s why.
Tazarotene shows potential as a standalone treatment for hair regrowth by stimulating new hair follicle formation and promoting angiogenesis, similar to microneedling effects. It can be used topically without minoxidil, but users should start with a low concentration to avoid irritation.
community Comprehensive Microneedling Guide
Microneedling for hair restoration involves daily use of a 0.3 mm device and weekly use of a 0.5 mm device. Combining microneedling with Minoxidil can enhance hair growth.
