5 / 20 resultscommunity How is there zero improvement with finding the cure?
Hair loss treatments have not advanced since 2018, with finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841 still being the main options. A permanent cure is unlikely due to the profitability of ongoing treatments.
community Hair loss research is a money grab

community Verteporfin and Microneedling
by
nkrata
in Treatments 1 year 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.
