research Liposomal Systems as Drug Delivery Vehicles for Dermal and Transdermal Applications
Liposomal systems show promise for delivering drugs through the skin but face challenges like high costs and stability issues.
research Methods for Quantifying Intrafollicular Drug Delivery: A Critical Appraisal
The document concludes that there is no agreed-upon best method for measuring drug delivery within hair follicles and more research is needed to validate current techniques.
research Nanotechnology in Dermatology
Nanotechnology in dermatology shows promise for better drug delivery and treatment effectiveness but requires more safety research.
research Advances and Challenges in the Treatment of Skin Diseases with the Transdermal Drug Delivery System
New skin disease treatments using TDDS are improving but face challenges like side effects and high costs.
research Nanotechnology Advances for Hair Loss
Nanotechnology could make hair loss treatments more effective and reduce side effects, but more research is needed before it's available.

5 / 534 resultscommunity Topical Dutasteride is Here.
The availability of Topical Dutasteride, a potential treatment for hair loss, which can be purchased without prescription from MinoxidilMax. Other treatments discussed include Topical Finasteride and PRP injections, with discussion around dosage, efficacy, side-effects and safety.
community Finasteride is Good for Heart Health!
Finasteride, a hair loss and prostate drug, may also benefit heart health. Some users discuss the potential negative effects of DHT on the heart and the balance between hair loss treatments and heart health.
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.
community Homemade topical spironolactone
The potential effectiveness of homemade topical spironolactone in treating hair loss, with studies suggesting it is more effective than finasteride and even minoxidil when used as monotherapy. The conversation also mentions that other anti-androgens are being developed which may soon hit the market.
community Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to work in the scalp. Not weeks. Be careful.
Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to affect scalp DHT levels, not just a week. The prostate absorbs Dutasteride faster than the scalp due to different vascular networks and enzyme densities.
