research International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery
Various techniques and tools for hair restoration were presented in 1998, including a mathematical model for donor area, use of lasers in surgery, methods for controlling grafted hair direction, and ways to increase graft yield. Satisfaction rates were around 39%, and studies showed trauma and dehydration can damage hair follicles.

The conversation discusses the appearance of hair transplants immediately after surgery, noting that scars will be covered as hair grows. The original poster underwent both FUT and FUE procedures.
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 How long should you take fin/dut for, before getting a transplant?
The user started taking dutasteride a month ago and is seeking advice on whether to wait for a year before getting a hair transplant, as it could potentially strengthen the donor-zone and require fewer grafts, or to get a transplant immediately, extracting only the "strong hairs" not affected by dutasteride. The user is unsure which approach is correct.
community Has anyone asked a hair transplant surgeon to consider using verteporfin during their surgery?
Exploring the potential of using verteporfin during hair transplants to minimize scarring and regenerate follicles, as well as discussing a possible standardized protocol for this treatment.
community Is microneedling + minoxidil better than oral minoxidil
Oral minoxidil is considered more effective for hair regrowth than topical minoxidil, but it carries higher risks. Combining microneedling with topical minoxidil can enhance absorption, but oral minoxidil with microneedling shows significant results.
