Finasteride and minoxidil treatments plateaued after 10 months, leading users to explore additional options like microneedling and low-level laser therapy (LLT) caps, though many are skeptical of the effectiveness and marketing of LLT devices like Kiierr. Users express frustration with the lack of clear recommendations from dermatologists and the prevalence of marketing hype over genuine reviews.

Shorter microneedle lengths, like 0.5mm, may be more effective and safer for hair regrowth than longer ones, such as 1.5mm, which can cause more pain and risk. Users report success with various regimens, including minoxidil, finasteride, and other topicals, alongside microneedling.
