If Verteporfin is able to stop scar formation successfully in humans to a large degree (assuming future studies show this), wouldn't this basically open up the door for it being a no brainer for strong NW2s and 3s to opt for hairline lowering?
The conversation discusses the potential for Verteporfin to reduce scarring, making hairline lowering surgeries more viable for men with mild hair loss. The user suggests that if scarring can be minimized, men might opt for hairline lowering instead of using grafts for other areas.
community This subreddit is 250K members strong, and only 95 likes for this game-changing Verteporfin research? It's pitiful. We need to be encouraging and supportive to any hair transplant surgeon willing to do research on Verteporfin! Go like the video, leave an encouraging comment, and spread this video
The conversation discusses the need for more support and awareness for Verteporfin research in hair loss treatment, emphasizing its potential benefits and quick implementation due to existing FDA approval. Users express skepticism due to past scams but acknowledge the importance of encouraging doctors to conduct trials.
