learn Scalp Micropigmentation

Can I use hair loss treatments (finasteride, minoxidil) after scalp micropigmentation? About half of clinics say finasteride can continue through scalp micropigmentation, and about half ask clients to pause topical minoxidil during the sessions and for roughly 30 days afterwards. That pause is clinic aftercare convention, not a label instruction - ask your prescriber first, because stopping minoxidil usually causes shedding.

5-alpha reductase inhibitor that blocks both enzyme types, a stronger DHT blocker than finasteride

learn procapil

Does Procapil block DHT without affecting hormones? What the evidence shows Procapil's supplier describes it as inhibiting 5-alpha reductase at the scalp without changing hormone levels, but the published support is cell and animal work plus one small human study of a caffeine-plus-Procapil formula. It is a cosmetic ingredient, not an approved hair-loss treatment, and no trial has compared it with finasteride or minoxidil.

learn Baicapil

Does Baicapil block DHT? What the evidence shows No published study shows that Baicapil blocks DHT — the only data on the ingredient itself is the manufacturer's own unpublished dossier, and the baicalin research behind the claim is prostate cancer cell-line work that did not measure DHT or hair.

learn Pumpkin seed oil

Does pumpkin seed oil block DHT, the hormone linked to male and female pattern baldness? Pumpkin seed oil has not been shown to lower DHT in people. One small, supplier-funded trial of a branded supplement reported more hair after 24 weeks but did not measure DHT (Cho et al. 2014).

learn Hair Transplant
