community I literally can’t find any evidence of sulfotransferase being upregulated by microneedling or retinoids like tretinoin

in Research/Science 4 upvotes 1 year ago

Microneedling and tretinoin may enhance minoxidil absorption for hair loss, but evidence on their effectiveness is limited. Iron supplements and broccoli sprouts are suggested for enzyme activation, but their impact on hair is unclear.

community A stress hormone has been found to signal through skin cells to repress the activation of hair-follicle stem cells in mice

30 upvotes 5 years ago

Stress can lead to hair loss by affecting hair-follicle stem cells, and this loss is harder to recover from if one has male pattern baldness (MPB). Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are used to address hair loss, but stress-related hair loss differs from androgenic alopecia.

community Masseter Muscles and the Tension Theory of Baldness

5 upvotes 6 years ago

The conversation discusses the tension theory of baldness, suggesting that over-developed masseter muscles may harm hair follicles. Botox injections to relax these muscles reportedly led to an 18% increase in hair count in men with AGA.

community Effect of melatonin on aromatase expression

4 upvotes 4 years ago

Melatonin's effect on aromatase expression is unclear, with studies showing both increases and decreases. Hormonal impacts are complex and inconsistent, similar to changing health advice on other substances.

community Simulative evaluation of taurine against alopecia caused by stress in Caenorhabditis elegans. - PubMed

4 upvotes 7 years ago

Taurine shows potential in combating hair loss caused by chemical stress, especially when combined with other treatments like finasteride. Finasteride demonstrated better stress-reducing effects in the study.

community Does anyone know the main driver for the efficacy of micro-needling?

5 upvotes 1 year ago

Microneedling may enhance hair loss treatment by increasing the effectiveness of topical minoxidil, especially for those lacking the necessary enzyme to activate it. It might also work by triggering growth factors and improving topical absorption.
