A human trial of verteporfin, a potential treatment for hair loss, with some users noting potential improvements in scarring and overall healing compared to control areas.
community Why didn’t Prince William hop on fin/min?
Hair loss discussion explores why Prince William didn't use treatments like finasteride or minoxidil. Reasons include indifference to appearance, potential side effects, and royal responsibilities.
community A new meta-analysis of 23 studies has confirmed that 5 milligrams a day of oral dutasteride had the highest probability of reducing male hair loss, followed by 5 milligrams a day of oral finasteride, followed by 5 milligrams of oral minoxidil, followed by 1 milligram a day of oral finasteride
Oral dutasteride (0.5mg) is most effective for male hair loss, followed by oral finasteride (5mg), oral minoxidil (5mg), and oral finasteride (1mg). Different treatments have benefits and side effects, and results don't apply to women's hair loss.
community Why do we have head hair in first place if we evolved to start losing it in some cases as soon as puberty hits
Hair loss is influenced by genetics and sensitivity to hormones like DHT. Treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used, and baldness persists as it doesn't affect reproductive success.
community Verteporfin and Microneedling

in Treatments 1 year ago 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.
