    GlossaryHair Growth Factors (hair growth promoters)

    naturally occurring proteins that stimulate hair follicle growth

    Hair Growth Factors are naturally occurring proteins or compounds that stimulate hair follicles to enter the growth phase, promoting hair development and reducing hair loss. These factors, such as keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), play crucial roles in cellular signaling pathways that regulate the hair growth cycle, making them essential in both clinical treatments for alopecia and cosmetic hair care products.

      Minoxidil sulfate is more effective than regular minoxidil, especially for those with low sulfotransferase levels or scalp sensitivity, but it is unstable unless delivered in a liposomal format. Combining minoxidil with tretinoin can enhance effectiveness, and stopping minoxidil use can lead to rapid hair loss.

      Key treatments for hair preservation include minoxidil, finasteride/dutasteride, and microneedling, with additional options like specific shampoos, oils, biotin, zinc, tretinoin, clascoterone, and low-level laser therapy. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, reducing stress, and addressing nutrient deficiencies can also support hair health.
