research In-vitro and in-vivo study of dye diffusion into the human skin and hair follicles

9 citations , November 2000 in “Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE”

This study demonstrated that dyeing can enhance the absorption coefficient of hair follicle tissues for selective photodestruction within human skin and hair follicles.

research Determination of Free Chemical Potential for Finasteride Diffusion through SDS Micelle Suggested as Alternative Living Membrane System

August 2022 in “International journal of membrane science and technology”

This study found that Finasteride may spontaneously diffuse into an SDS-based model cell membrane at a significant rate, with distinct behavior in polar and non-polar solutions.

research Kinetics and Equilibrium of Solute Diffusion into Human Hair

8 citations , July 2012 in “Annals of biomedical engineering”

This study found that the uptake of molecules by hair is influenced by both hydrophobic and ionic charge interactions, with binding affinity decreasing as pH approaches the solute's dissociation constant.

research Determination of Solute Diffusion Properties in Artificial Sebum

6 citations , May 2019 in “Journal of pharmaceutical sciences”

This study found that diffusion coefficients of chemicals in artificial sebum are significantly higher than those in stratum corneum lipids, suggesting the hair follicle may significantly contribute to transdermal permeation.

research In-vitro permeation of drugs into porcine hair follicles: is it quantitatively equivalent to permeation into human hair follicles?

19 citations , January 2008 in “Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology”

This study found that porcine skin serves as a reliable model for studying drug absorption into human hair follicles, showing a strong correlation in follicular drug absorption between porcine and human skin.

community 30-Min Dermatology Visit – Best Questions to Ask About Balding? ( 175$ )

6 upvotes 1 year ago

The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, focusing on finasteride, minoxidil, and other options like PRP and ketoconazole. It highlights the importance of asking specific questions during a dermatology visit to determine the cause of hair loss and appropriate treatments.

community Can absorption be intervened by oil, sebum etc?

in Treatment 3 upvotes 2 years ago

The conversation discusses whether oily scalp and sebum can hinder the absorption of topical hair loss treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride, even when using tretinoin. The user is skeptical about the effectiveness of these treatments due to their oily scalp condition.

learn oleic acid

Does Oleic Acid improve absorption of other topical hair treatments? In lab studies, oleic acid helps some drugs pass through skin. This has not been shown to improve hair-loss results in people.

learn Vitamin C

Can Vitamin C improve the absorption of other hair-supporting nutrients? Vitamin C increases absorption of non-heme iron, which may matter when shedding is linked to iron deficiency. There is no good evidence that it boosts absorption of other hair-related nutrients.

learn retinol

Can retinol help enhance the absorption of ingredients like minoxidil or peptides? No human study has measured whether retinol increases scalp absorption of minoxidil or peptides. Retinoids thicken rather than thin the epidermis, and they can irritate skin and need caution in pregnancy.
