research In Vitro Percutaneous Permeation and Skin Accumulation of Finasteride Using Vesicular Ethosomal Carriers
Ethosomes improve finasteride delivery through skin for hair loss treatment.
research In Vitro Skin Permeation of Monoolein Nanoparticles Containing Hydroxypropyl β-Cyclodextrin/Minoxidil Complex
Nanoparticles improve minoxidil skin permeation, but more research needed for effective hair growth.
research In Vitro Skin Permeation of Hinokitiol Loaded in Vesicles Composed of Behenyltrimethylammonium Chloride and Stearic Acid
Vesicles made of behenyltrimethylammonium chloride and stearic acid can triple the skin absorption of hinokitiol, which may help with hair growth.
research Influence of Chemical Permeation Enhancers on the In Vitro Skin Permeation of Minoxidil Through Excised Rat Skin: A Mechanistic Study
Urea, eucalyptus oil, and menthol improve minoxidil skin absorption.
research Relative Uptake of Minoxidil Into Appendages and Stratum Corneum and Permeation Through Human Skin In Vitro
Minoxidil promotes hair growth by penetrating skin, with ethanol-containing formulas working best.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Fats on your Head to Stop Hair Loss?
The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.
community New and Interesting HairLoss Studies/Papers/Reviews
Hair loss treatments discussed include Dutasteride with Ketoconazole, tissue engineering strategies, and androgenetic alopecia therapies. Massage doubles follicular retention, improving treatment effectiveness.
community Peptides that Stop Hair Loss? | In-depth Literature Review Video
Peptides like TB500, KPV, GHK-CU, and BPC-157 are overhyped for hair growth with limited proven effectiveness in humans. Combining peptides with delivery methods like iontophoresis and sonophoresis shows promise, but many claims remain unproven.
community A meta analysis of 18 popular hair loss treatments. An 2022 guide on efficacy. From finasteride and minoxidil to caffeine shampoo, saw palmetto and biotin. 96 Scientific References included.
Most hair loss treatments are ineffective; only finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil show effectiveness.
community HLT Megathread on HMI-115 (key takeaways in comments)
HMI-115, a newly discovered hair loss treatment that could potentially be effective for those with diffuse thinning and telogen effluvium. It is based on prolactin receptor antagonist signaling and has already undergone Phase I trials in women, with potential commercialization by 2027.
