community How long before I can Micro Needle my hair transplant?
The user had a hair transplant and is asking when they can resume microneedling their forehead, which they did previously once a week with positive results on their crown. They are currently on a treatment regimen that includes oral finasteride, oral and topical minoxidil, ketoconazole shampoo, and black castor oil for moisturizing.
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.
