5 / 23 resultscommunity Verteporfin and Microneedling
Clinical studies by Dr. Barghouthi and Dr. Bloxham indicate that Verteporfin, when used with FUE and FUT hair transplantation methods, shows promise in hair follicle regeneration and minimal scarring due to its ability to inhibit Yes-associated protein (YAP). Microneedling at depths of 3-3.5mm, combined with Verteporfin, could potentially reactivate dormant follicles, although the optimal dosage and application method are still under investigation. Concerns remain about the DHT sensitivity of regenerated follicles, highlighting the need for further research to optimize trauma levels and Verteporfin concentrations to achieve effective and scar-free hair regeneration.
community Long term finasteride users; Did you notice any improvement after 2 years?
Long term Finasteride users and whether or not they have noticed improvements after two years of use, with other treatments such as Minoxidil and dermarolling also discussed. Some replies suggest that improvement is possible even beyond the two year mark while others caution against believing studies backed by the Post-Finasteride Foundation.

community Do hair follicles ever really "die"? Or does all your front, mid, and crown hair just become vellus?
Hair follicles don't truly die but become severely miniaturized. Treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil can help restore hair by providing nutrients and reducing harmful effects on hair roots.
