Scalp Threading – New Treatment Option for Androgenetic Alopecia

Scalp Threading is presented as a novel treatment for Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA) that stimulates hair follicle cell proliferation, extends the anagen phase of hair growth, and upregulates growth factors. Unlike traditional treatments like finasteride and minoxidil, which have a 40%-60% efficacy rate, Scalp Threading shows promising results with a single application achieving hair growth comparable to multiple applications of minoxidil. This method works by counteracting the inhibitory effects of DHT on the Wnt pathway, which is crucial for hair growth and follicle cycling. Given its long-lasting effects and potential for hair regrowth, Scalp Threading is considered a viable treatment option for AGA patients.
