5 / 108 resultscommunity Occipitalis Muscle Tension Theory
Scalp tension from the occipitalis muscle is theorized to contribute to hair loss, but most believe DHT and genetics are the main causes. Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are considered more effective than addressing scalp tension.
community Why does MPB only affect the scalp
Male pattern baldness (MPB) may be influenced by androgen receptors in scalp hair follicles and potentially poor blood flow. Transplanted hair is not immune to DHT, and factors like inflammation and scalp tension might also contribute to hair loss.
community So we have 20k dollars human like machines available but no new effective treatment for hairloss since finasteride :)
There have been no new effective hair loss treatments since finasteride, despite technological advancements. Current treatments include finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841, with ongoing challenges and potential future solutions in research.
community Elon Musk just became the richest man in the world & i got a proposal he cant refuse.
The conversation humorously suggests Elon Musk should focus on finding a cure for hair loss instead of space exploration, mentioning treatments like hair transplants, Minoxidil, and finasteride. It highlights the emotional impact of hair loss and the potential financial gain from a cure.
community 2020 is here, what’s the current state for “upcoming” treatments?
Minoxidil and finasteride are the main treatments for hair loss, with Breezula and hair cloning being explored. No definitive cure is available yet.
