5 / 1000+ resultsresearch High spatial resolution study of human skin using synchrotron infrared microscopy: application to the penetration of external agents
External agents penetrate skin more easily in areas with fewer lipids, especially through hair follicles.
research Microscopic high-resolution digital volumetric imaging of human hair fibers
DVI provides detailed 3D imaging of hair and shows how various products protect and enhance hair.
research Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy as a Tool for the Investigation of Skin Drug Delivery Systems and Diagnosis of Skin Disorders
Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) is a useful tool for studying how drugs interact with skin and diagnosing skin disorders, despite some limitations.
research A primer for studying cell cycle dynamics of the human hair follicle
The document concludes that understanding hair follicle cell cycles is crucial for hair growth and alopecia research, and recommends specific techniques and future research directions.

The post discusses using ImageJ software to objectively track hair regrowth progress. The user is treating Androgen alopecia with dutasteride and minoxidil.
community 6-months on Hims topical minoxidal and finasteride combination, and microneedling once every week or two. The before pic was taken with the front iphone camera so is lower resolution which makes a comparison hard, but perhaps seeing some minor gains in individual hairs thickening.
Using a combination of topical minoxidil and finasteride, plus microneedling, to treat hair loss; the progress made by the original poster over 6 months; the potential for further results with longer use; and the possibility of seeking alternatives such as a hair transplant or system.
community Sugar and Hair loss connections
High sugar diets may worsen hair loss by increasing 5α-reductase activity and androgen levels, especially in women with PCOS. A low sugar diet might reduce scalp DHT levels, similar to finasteride, but genetics also significantly influence hair loss.
community Pyrilutamide just launched internationally, and all you're doing is hating
The post and conversation are about the high cost and skepticism surrounding pyrilutamide as a hair loss treatment, with comparisons to minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841. The original poster defends pyrilutamide's effectiveness and criticizes others for dismissing it without proper understanding.
community A New Therapeutic Channel to Come Soon: Hair Follicle Sugar Metabolism and Aldose Reductase
Hair loss therapies focusing on hair follicle sugar metabolism and aldose reductase. Potential treatments include magnesium supplements, avoiding high glycemic index foods, and antioxidants.
