    GlossaryCutaneous Blood Flow (Dermal Blood Flow)

    circulation of blood through skin's blood vessels

    Cutaneous Blood Flow, also known as Skin Blood Flow, refers to the circulation of blood through the network of blood vessels in the skin. This process is crucial for thermoregulation, as it helps to dissipate heat and maintain body temperature. Additionally, it supplies oxygen and nutrients to the skin while removing waste products, playing a vital role in skin health and wound healing.

      The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.
