1 year ago Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
community A new study by Deng and colleagues set out to explore differences between balding and non balding scalps...
Balding scalps have more androgen receptors, leading to increased TGF-beta, which causes blood vessel loss and hair follicle miniaturization. Blocking androgen signaling and TGF-beta may help prevent hair loss.
community How to take care of the microneedler?
Disinfecting microneedlers is important to prevent infection, with suggestions to use high-percentage alcohol or denture tablets for sterilization. Rollers may cause skin damage, so stamps or pens are recommended for safer microneedling.
community Hair loss research focused on chemistry for decades because we misunderstood the mechanics of growth.
Hair growth relies on mechanical forces, not just chemicals, with tissue acting like a motor. Minoxidil and finasteride help, but maintaining tissue elasticity and addressing mechanical issues are essential.
community Verteporfin update - donor hair regeneration human trial
A human trial of verteporfin, a potential treatment for hair loss, with some users noting potential improvements in scarring and overall healing compared to control areas.
