5 / 76 resultscommunity Keratin microspheres - breakthrough
A gel of keratin microspheres promotes hair follicle growth, showing similar effectiveness to minoxidil in mice. The treatment activates hair growth pathways and reduces inflammation, with potential applications in drug delivery for hair-related disorders.
community Results of Procyanidin B2 in clinical studies
Procyanidin B2, a compound derived from Annurca apples, as a potential treatment for pattern hair loss. Several clinical studies were mentioned, which found that procyanidin B2 could increase hair growth, density, and keratin content. Other treatments such as Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841 were not discussed.
community POV: you listened to No village on tressless and stuck with it. Hey brothas, I’ve officially hit a year on fin and soon will be hitting 6 months on min. I got zero progress in my hair line but my density is much better and managable. I appreciate u guys alot.
The user "Mysterious_Aspect364" shared their progress with hair loss treatments. They have been using finasteride and minoxidil for a year and six months respectively. The replies mostly congratulate the user on their progress and suggest using a dermaroller with 1.0 needles on the hairline combined with minoxidil.
community This serum outperformed Minoxidil in a recent study. Please debunk
A topical solution called "Multi-Peptide Serum for Hair Density" by The Ordinary Company, which contains several ingredients that are used in alternatives to Minoxidil and was found to have better results than 5% Minoxidil in a study. People who have tried it shared their experiences with the serum as well.
community The truth about Dutasteride (w/ sources)
The effectiveness of Dutasteride compared to Finasteride in treating hair loss, with evidence given such as studies and experiences, as well as discussion around whether one should switch from Finasteride to Dutasteride. There is also a discussion on post-Dutasteride syndrome.
