    GlossaryHair Growth Mechanisms (hair growth pathways)

    biological processes regulating hair follicle development and cycling

    Hair Growth Mechanisms refer to the biological processes and pathways that regulate the development, growth, and shedding of hair. These mechanisms involve a complex interplay of genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors that influence the hair follicle cycle, which includes the anagen (growth), catagen (regression), and telogen (resting) phases. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for developing treatments for hair loss conditions like alopecia.

      community Keratin microspheres - breakthrough

      in Research/Science  13 upvotes 1 year ago
      A gel of keratin microspheres promotes hair follicle growth, showing similar effectiveness to minoxidil in mice. The treatment activates hair growth pathways and reduces inflammation, with potential applications in drug delivery for hair-related disorders.

      community New & Improved Hair Growth Stack for Maximum Results

      in Treatment  2 upvotes 1 month ago
      A user shared a hair growth stack using minoxidil sulfate, valproic acid, bimatoprost, blue copper peptide, and other ingredients, emphasizing a gel-based formula for better skin tolerance. Another user suggested adding a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor like finasteride or dutasteride for more effective long-term results.

      community Anyone excited for CosmeRNA coming this month?

      in Product  171 upvotes 2 years ago
      CosmeRNA, a new hair loss treatment, is expected to release soon and may become part of the "big three" treatments alongside finasteride and minoxidil. It works differently from finasteride by targeting androgen receptors in hair follicles, potentially offering fewer side effects.
