community Last week, I switched from dermaroller to dermastamp - on your recommendation. How many passes is recommended? If I stamp my whole scalp methodically once, is that sufficient? (Using 1 mm - which made me bleed quite a lot.)

learn Latanoprost

glaucoma medication with hair follicle stimulant effects

How does latanoprost work to make eyelashes and possibly scalp hair grow? Studies report that latanoprost, a prostaglandin analog, lengthens the anagen (growth) phase of hair follicles, which is the mechanism given for the eyelash thickening seen in glaucoma patients; on the scalp the evidence is one 16-man pilot study and animal work, so the effect there is unproven.
