Two Different Trichoscopic Patterns of Mid-Frontal Scalp in Patients with Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia and Clinical Features of Androgenetic Alopecia

research Two different trichoscopic patterns of mid-frontal scalp in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia and clinical features of androgenetic alopecia

2 citations , January 2017 in “Przegla̧d dermatologiczny”

This study identified two distinct trichoscopic patterns in the mid-frontal scalp of patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia who also display clinical features of androgenetic alopecia.

research Effect of Oral Minoxidil on Monilethrix

March 2025 in “International Journal of Trichology”

This case report describes a 14-year-old female patient with monilethrix who developed female androgenetic alopecia at age 23, and found that oral minoxidil treatment improved her androgenetic alopecia while leaving the underlying structural hair anomalies of monilethrix unchanged.

research Investigation of hair shaft in seborrheic dermatitis using atomic force microscopy

17 citations , January 2011 in “Skin Research and Technology”

Hair from people with seborrheic dermatitis is thicker scaled, more damaged, and thinner than healthy hair, and atomic force microscopy can help monitor the condition.

research Dermoscopic features of androgenetic alopecia and their clinical implications

September 2014 in “Chinese Journal of Dermatology”

In this study, several dermoscopic features such as hair diameter diversity, brown peripilar sign, and focal atrichia were frequently observed in both male and female androgenetic alopecia patients, highlighting these as potential AGA indicators.

community can we talk about the effect of DHT on hair TEXTURE (not just thickness/density)

41 upvotes 1 month ago

Finasteride treatment improved hair texture and reduced frizz for some users, though full restoration of original texture may take time. Hair texture changes were noted across the head, with some areas responding faster to treatment.

community Solving Hair Loss with Research at MIT

in Research/Science 595 upvotes 1 year ago

Hair loss treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, TDM-105795, and PP405. MIT is hosting a hackathon to find innovative hair loss solutions.

community Recent trials investigating mesenchymal stem cell derived exosomes demonstrate significant increases in anagen duration and hair shaft caliber by upregulating Wnt/beta-catenin pathways.

4 upvotes 3 weeks ago

Exosomes from mesenchymal stem cells can increase hair growth by enhancing anagen duration and hair shaft thickness through the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway. Phase 2 trials show improved hair counts over 24 weeks.

community After using finasteride, did you notice an improvement in the hair shaft in terms of looking more “alive” and shiny?

2 upvotes 7 months ago

Finasteride users reported improvements in hair appearance, including increased thickness, shine, and darker color. Some users noticed their hair looked healthier and less sunburned after starting the treatment.

community Peppermint oil for Hair Thickness

in Research/Science 2 upvotes 10 months ago

Peppermint oil may increase hair thickness more effectively than minoxidil, but its effects are mostly studied in animals. Users report mixed results, with some seeing no regrowth and others noting slight improvements when combined with other treatments.

signaling protein that, when suppressed, may grow hair by reducing inflammation and stem cell loss

learn Cetirizine

How does cetirizine reduce inflammation linked to hair loss? Cetirizine is proposed to lower prostaglandin D2 and raise prostaglandin E2 around hair follicles; three small trials of a compounded 1% topical report modest increases in hair density and shaft thickness, with minoxidil doing better head-to-head. Topical cetirizine is off-label and unapproved for hair loss, and the evidence is too thin to call it effective or safe.
