    GlossaryCollagen Density

    concentration of collagen fibers in tissue

    Collagen density refers to the concentration and arrangement of collagen fibers within a given tissue, such as skin or hair follicles. Higher collagen density typically indicates stronger, more resilient tissue, which can impact skin elasticity and hair strength. For professionals, assessing collagen density can be crucial for understanding tissue health and developing treatments for conditions like alopecia or skin aging.

      Making a 1 year update on hair loss treatment of Finasteride, 5 mg oral minoxidil and topical minoxidil with 1.5 mm dermarolling; the user experienced some face pimples, baggy eyes, and had tried skin care. They also used fiber with their hair product and left it for a few days to make it look visually better. Replies were positive and one asked if using both oral and topical minoxidil was overkill.

      community Why don’t more people use hair fibers?

      in Product  527 upvotes 1 month ago
      Hair fibers can effectively cover thinning hair when used with minoxidil and hairspray but require daily application and can be inconvenient in certain conditions. Some users prefer treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, microneedling, or wigs due to the maintenance and limitations of hair fibers.
