Did you mean Curved Hair Follicles?

Glossary Curved Hair Follicles

hair follicles with a natural bend, producing curly or wavy hair

Curved hair follicles refer to hair follicles that are not straight but have a natural curve or bend. This curvature can influence the shape and texture of the hair that grows from them, often resulting in wavy, curly, or coiled hair. The degree of curvature is determined by genetic factors and can affect how hair is managed and styled.

community Another blow to the cursed baldness

in Research/Science 91 upvotes 1 year ago

A South Korean company, Therazyne, has developed a promising hair loss treatment using a WNT chain surrogate that binds to Frizzled 7, with human follicle testing expected soon. Current treatments like minoxidil and finasteride are not seen as cures, and while optimism exists for future solutions like PP405, approval processes are lengthy.

community I Guess balding is cured so should we close subreddit and move to hairstyling photos 😁 Botox-like nerve blocking reveals potential way to fully regenerate skin without scarring

6 months ago

Baldness is difficult to cure because current treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil only prevent hair shedding, and new developments are mostly ineffective. Botox shows potential in aiding skin regeneration and hair growth, but maintenance therapy with treatments like dutasteride and minoxidil may still be necessary.

community if hair follicle miniaturization happens slowly and gradually over a few hair cycles then wouldn't that mean that to regain maximum or top thickness from treatment you would at least need 5-10 years?

in Research/Science 53 upvotes 10 months ago

Hair regrowth from treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil can take several years, with most visible results appearing within 1-2 years and potential improvements continuing up to 10 years. Consistency and patience are crucial for achieving maximum hair thickness, as hair miniaturization and regrowth are gradual processes.

community Dutasteride SAVES your hair follicles: MAJOR BS on people who say it destroyed their hair permanently.
