TLDR Advanced reconstructive plastic surgery techniques improve outcomes with personalized care and innovative treatments.

The fourth volume of the "Guía de Procedimientos en Cirugía Plástica Reconstructiva" offers an extensive overview of advanced reconstructive plastic surgery techniques, emphasizing personalized patient evaluation and planning. It covers procedures like otoplasty and discusses the role of stem cells in improving outcomes through tissue regeneration and wound healing, with potential applications in hair growth and complex tissue reconstruction. The guide highlights the importance of preoperative evaluation, meticulous surgical techniques, and postoperative care to prevent complications. It also addresses innovative treatments for hypertrophic and keloid scars, such as laser therapy and cryotherapy, and provides insights into breast augmentation and abdominoplasty, stressing the need for ethical practices and informed decision-making.

community Compressed part of research of theory of androgenic/anabolitic balance. AGA h-responders analytic. Theory of physio-metabolitic method of anti AGA treatment

in Research 865 upvotes 1 year ago

The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.

community Verteporfin day 84 update - donor hair regeneration human trials

in Research/Science 33 upvotes 3 years ago

A human trial involving verteporfin for hair regeneration, with the results showing some regrowth of 1-2 hairs in an area where a follicular unit was extracted. The conversation also suggested that future studies should involve higher doses and more frequent injections.

community The Real Cause Of Androgenetic Alopecia

in Research/Science 679 upvotes 1 year ago

Androgenetic alopecia is caused by DHT affecting hair growth. Finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss by blocking DHT and promoting hair growth.

in Research/Science 243 upvotes 1 week ago

Oleic acid and microneedling are being explored for hair regrowth, but results are mixed. Addressing DHT and fibrosis is crucial, with treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and scalp massage also discussed.

community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied

in Research 830 upvotes 1 year ago

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.

The gel with icariin speeds up wound healing, reduces scarring, and helps hair growth by controlling BMP4 signaling. It also reduces inflammation and improves wound quality in mice, adapts to different wound shapes, and gradually releases icariin to aid healing. It also prevents too much collagen and myofibroblast formation during skin healing.
