    GlossaryFollicular Penetration

    process where substances enter hair follicles for treatment

    Follicular penetration refers to the process by which substances, such as medications or cosmetic ingredients, enter the hair follicle. This can enhance the effectiveness of treatments for conditions like alopecia, as the active ingredients can directly reach the root of the hair where they are most needed.
