    TLDR Hair follicle stem cells help skin heal and grow during stretching.
    This study investigates the role of hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) in promoting epidermal regeneration during skin soft tissue expansion, a process involving skin development, wound healing, and mechanical stretching. The research aims to clarify the mechanisms of HFSC-related epidermal regeneration and suggests a potential method for regulating these processes at the cellular and molecular levels.

      Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.

      in Microneedling  15 upvotes 3 weeks ago
      Stopping microneedling may result in losing hair gains, as it enhances the effectiveness of treatments like minoxidil. Combining microneedling with minoxidil and finasteride is more effective than using microneedling alone.
