    GlossaryHair Loss Patterns (Baldness Patterns)

    specific ways hair loss manifests on the scalp

    Hair loss patterns refer to the specific ways in which hair loss manifests on the scalp, often influenced by genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors. Common patterns include male-pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia), which typically starts with a receding hairline and thinning at the crown, and female-pattern baldness, which usually presents as overall thinning without a receding hairline. Understanding these patterns helps in diagnosing the type of alopecia and determining appropriate treatment options.

      community Verteporfin and Microneedling

      in Treatments 6 months ago
      Clinical studies by Dr. Barghouthi and Dr. Bloxham indicate that Verteporfin, when used with FUE and FUT hair transplantation methods, shows promise in hair follicle regeneration and minimal scarring due to its ability to inhibit Yes-associated protein (YAP). Microneedling at depths of 3-3.5mm, combined with Verteporfin, could potentially reactivate dormant follicles, although the optimal dosage and application method are still under investigation. Concerns remain about the DHT sensitivity of regenerated follicles, highlighting the need for further research to optimize trauma levels and Verteporfin concentrations to achieve effective and scar-free hair regeneration.
