5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Three-dimensional architecture of macrofibrils in the human scalp hair cortex
This study observed that human hair macrofibrils predominantly exhibit a double-twist architecture with varying inter-macrofibril angles, advancing insights into their structural organization and mechanical implications.
research Nucleation and growth of macrofibrils in trichocyte (hard-α) keratins
This study suggests that varying intersheet interactions may explain the differences between the two polymorphic forms of macrofibril assembly in Merino wool and hair.
research Investigation of age-related decline of microfibril-associated glycoprotein-1 in human skin through immunohistochemistry study
This study found that levels of the protein MAGP-1, important for skin elasticity, decrease with aging and photoexposure, potentially contributing to skin fragility, sagging, and enlarged pores.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity The Biggest Concern That I Have For Oral Minoxidil: Cardiac Hypertrophy
Oral minoxidil can cause serious heart issues like cardiac hypertrophy and arrhythmias, prompting some users to reduce dosage or switch to topical treatments. Despite significant hair regrowth, side effects such as shortness of breath and chest pains are common concerns.
community Micro needling has made my hairline worse?
The user has been microneedling at 0.25mm once a week for 4 weeks and noticed further hairline recession. They are concerned about the impact of vitamin deficiencies, like biotin, on hair growth.
community Micro needling and ptd-dbm progress
The conversation is about using micro needling and PTD-DBM for hair loss treatment. The user applies PTD-DBM drops on weekdays and performs micro needling weekly.
community Macro photos of progress - dutasteride + topical minoxidil : 3,5 months
A 30-year-old male with androgenic alopecia shows progress after using dutasteride (0.5 mg daily) and topical minoxidil (5% twice daily) for 3.5 months. Users suggest adding dermastamping for better results.
community Added micro needling to my routine (currently using topical fin and topical Min)
The user has been using topical finasteride and minoxidil for two years with decent regrowth and recently added microneedling to their routine. They are questioning if the small hairs observed are new regrowth from microneedling or just vellus or miniaturized hairs.
