The conversation discusses using verteporfin for hair regrowth and minimizing scarring after hair transplants. Some individuals plan to self-administer verteporfin, potentially in combination with microneedling, as an alternative to hair transplants.
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.
community Verteporfin with Microneedling (3mm-3.5mm): Bald to Full Head of Hair? Theory
The conversation is about using Verteporfin with microneedling as a potential hair loss treatment that may regenerate hair follicles with minimal scarring. There are concerns about the optimal dosage and the DHT sensitivity of the new follicles.
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.
community Dr. Bloxham Final verteporfin update
Verteporfin is being explored for its potential to improve hair transplant outcomes by reducing scarring and increasing donor hair follicles. There is skepticism about the results, with some claiming misleading presentation of evidence.
