    GlossaryFetal Skin

    skin of a developing fetus with scarless healing properties

    Fetal skin, also known as fetal dermis or fetal epidermis, refers to the skin of a developing fetus. It is characterized by its remarkable ability to heal without scarring, a property that diminishes after birth. This unique regenerative capability is of significant interest in medical research, particularly for developing advanced wound healing therapies and understanding skin development.

      community Verteporfin and Microneedling

      in Treatments 1 year ago
      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 What is the cause of "DHT itch"?

      in Research/Science  7 upvotes 4 months ago
      The conversation discusses the effects of using Tongkat ali and dioscorea to raise DHT levels, leading to increased body hair growth and an itchy scalp, without causing hair loss. The discussion also debates the role of DHT in male characteristics and its impact on sexual function, with differing opinions on its importance and effects.
