Clascoterone 5% and PP405 are being discussed as potential future treatments for hair loss, with clascoterone nearing phase three completion and PP405 possibly taking a cosmetic route to market. Current treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841 are mentioned as effective in slowing hair loss, but a complete cure remains elusive.
community Verteporfin and Microneedling
Clinical studies by Dr. Barghouthi and Dr. Bloxham indicate that Verteporfin, when used with FUE and FUT hair transplantation methods, shows promise in hair follicle regeneration and minimal scarring due to its ability to inhibit Yes-associated protein (YAP). Microneedling at depths of 3-3.5mm, combined with Verteporfin, could potentially reactivate dormant follicles, although the optimal dosage and application method are still under investigation. Concerns remain about the DHT sensitivity of regenerated follicles, highlighting the need for further research to optimize trauma levels and Verteporfin concentrations to achieve effective and scar-free hair regeneration.
