    Glossary Follicular Drug Delivery

    method of administering medication directly into hair follicles

    Follicular drug delivery is a method of administering medication directly into hair follicles. This approach can enhance the effectiveness of treatments for conditions like alopecia or acne by targeting the root of the problem more precisely, allowing for better absorption and potentially reducing side effects compared to traditional topical or systemic treatments.
