Did you mean Hair Growth Inhibition?

Glossary Hair Growth Inhibition

process of slowing or stopping natural hair growth

Hair Growth Inhibition refers to the process of slowing down or stopping the natural growth of hair. This can be achieved through various methods, including the use of topical creams, laser treatments, or medications that target the hair follicles to reduce their activity. This term is often used in the context of managing conditions like hirsutism or for cosmetic purposes such as long-term hair removal.

research Fiber growth initiation in hair follicles of goats treated with melatonin

48 citations , September 1993 in “The journal of experimental zoology/Journal of experimental zoology”

In this study, melatonin implants advanced and synchronized spring hair growth in goats by initiating fiber growth earlier than in untreated goats, with associated suppression of normal prolactin rise.

research Effects of immunosuppressive peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) inhibitors, cyclosporin A, FK506, ascomycin and rapamycin, on hair growth initiation in mouse: immunosuppression is not required for new hair growth

20 citations , January 1995 in “Journal of Dermatological Science”

This study found that topical application of cyclosporin A and FK506 induces new hair growth in mice, while ascomycin and rapamycin do not, suggesting hair induction is not due to immunosuppression.

research In vivo effects of epidermal growth factor on epidermal pattern formation and hair follicle initiation in the marsupial bandicoot Isoodon macrourus

7 citations , November 1997 in “Reproduction Fertility and Development”

In this study, subcutaneous injections of murine epidermal growth factor in marsupial pouch young inhibited the formation of hair follicles and associated structures, altering normal follicle development.

research Glucocorticoid Effect on Hair Growth Initiation: A Reconsideration

77 citations , January 1993 in “Skin Pharmacology and Physiology”

In this study, topically applied glucocorticosteroids were found to block hair growth at the stage of hair formation, but not the initiation of hair growth, in a mouse model.

research Cell proliferation during fibre growth initiation in ferret hair follicles

January 1992 in “Proceedings of the New Zealand Society of Animal Production”

This study observed that key signaling events controlling hair growth in ferret follicles occur between 0 and 4 days after melatonin implantation, highlighting distinct processes in follicular regeneration and fibre growth.

community Minoxidil experiment on single hair follicle

1689 upvotes 1 year ago

Minoxidil was applied to a single miniaturized hair follicle over four months, resulting in less miniaturization but not yet terminal growth. The user used a 5% minoxidil solution, specifically the Regaine brand, and observed changes using a handheld WiFi microscope.

community The mechanism of androgenic alopecia

36 upvotes 11 months ago

DHT may inhibit hair growth by affecting mitochondrial function, leading to hair follicle miniaturization. Treatments like minoxidil and PP405 may promote hair growth by altering metabolic pathways, potentially counteracting DHT's effects.

community Dutastride DOES work (my experience

39 upvotes 2 weeks ago

Dutasteride has significantly improved hair growth for the user, especially at the temples and back of the head, after six months of use. The user is considering stopping minoxidil due to its limited effectiveness and inconvenience, while others caution against stopping it abruptly.

community How common is serious regrowth for people 35yrs old and up?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 20 upvotes 11 months ago

Regrowth is more likely if hair follicles are still alive, regardless of age, but younger individuals often see better results due to early intervention. Treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and dermarolling can help, but results vary based on individual factors such as the presence of miniaturized hairs and the speed of treatment initiation.

community GT20029 China Phase II Trial For AGA Reached Primary Endpoint

133 upvotes 2 years ago

The GT20029 tincture, a topical androgen receptor degrader, showed significant hair growth and good safety in a China Phase II trial for male androgenetic alopecia (AGA), with the 1% dose twice weekly identified as optimal. The company plans to initiate Phase III trials in China and Phase II in the U.S., and the treatment also shows promise for acne.

learn Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor

What is Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), and how does it support hair growth in alopecia? VEGF promotes hair growth by enhancing blood supply to hair follicles.

learn Caffeine

Does caffeine stimulate hair growth or only slow hair loss? Caffeine stimulates hair follicles in laboratory cultures, and one open-label trial in 210 men found a 0.2% caffeine topical non-inferior to minoxidil 5% on an anagen-ratio endpoint; there is no placebo-controlled evidence that it regrows hair, and none at all in alopecia areata or telogen effluvium.
