    TLDR Corrections were made to a previous work on 3D printing a gel-alginate mix for creating hair follicles, but the main finding - that this method can help grow hair - remains the same.
    The document is a corrigendum to a previous study on 3D bioprinting of a gelatin-alginate hydrogel for tissue-engineered hair follicle regeneration. The authors made several corrections to the original paper, including replacing the bioprinter nozzle image in the Graphical Abstract, removing the text "(n = 6)" from the Materials and Methods section, and adding in-vitro pictures of reconstructed hair follicle-like structures in 3D-bioprinted multilayer composite scaffolds. They also replaced several poorly performed images in Figure 8. Despite these corrections, the authors affirm that the findings and conclusions of the work remain unchanged. The study involved the use of a 3D-bioprinted multilayer composite scaffold to facilitate hair follicle regeneration in vivo, with substantial hair growth observed in both the 3D-bioprinted scaffold and traditional chamber assay groups.

      User discusses scalp micropigmentation for denser hair appearance and its benefits compared to lifelong treatments. Special ink is used, which can fade and blur over time but can be topped up.

      community Surprisingly thorough study on He-Shou-Wu/Fo Ti

      in Research/Science  14 upvotes 1 year ago
      He Shou Wu (Fo Ti) extract was found to prolong the hair growth phase, inhibit 5-alpha-reductase (like finasteride), reduce androgen receptors, and increase growth factors, potentially outperforming minoxidil in recovering hair follicle size after DHT exposure. Two compounds, emodin and TSG, are identified as responsible for these effects and warrant further investigation.

      community What is this pigmentation around my follicles?

      in Chat  29 upvotes 2 weeks ago
      The conversation discusses potential causes of pigmentation around hair follicles, suggesting sebum buildup, autoimmune conditions, or dermatitis. Treatments mentioned include finasteride, dutasteride, and an anti-inflammatory diet, with a recommendation to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis.
