research Follicle trauma and the role of the dissecting microscope in hair transplantation. A Multicenter Study
This study evaluates if using a dissecting stereomicroscope affects the rate of hair follicle transection during graft dissection, but reports no new conclusive results.
research Dissecting Microscope Versus Magnifying Loupes with Transilluntination in the Preparation of Follicular Unit Grafts
This study found that using a dissecting microscope for follicular unit graft preparation in hair transplant surgeries increased hair yield by 17% compared to using magnifying loupes with transillumination.
research Follicular Unit Transplantation: Comparison of Video Microscopic vs. Combination Methods
This study found that using a combination of video microscope for slivering and loupe magnification for graft-cutting in hair transplants achieved nearly double the graft productivity with similar transection rates compared to using only a digital video microscope.
research Nanotribological characterization of human hair and skin using atomic force microscopy

5 / 145 resultscommunity Minoxidil experiment on single hair follicle
Minoxidil was applied to a single miniaturized hair follicle over four months, resulting in less miniaturization but not yet terminal growth. The user used a 5% minoxidil solution, specifically the Regaine brand, and observed changes using a handheld WiFi microscope.
community Where did this idea come from: dermastamp better than dermaroller?
Dermastamps are preferred over dermarollers for microneedling due to precision and reduced risk of scarring. Dermastamps allow for controlled, vertical needle entry, while dermarollers may cause more damage with sideways needle entry.
community Kintor (Koshine Biomedica) changed their KX-826 pictures on Amazon to a alleged study picture after backlash over fake pictures
Kintor changed their KX-826 pictures on Amazon after backlash over fake images. Users are skeptical about the product's effectiveness and trustworthiness, with some preferring finasteride instead.
community When will hair cloning (infinite amount of transplantable hair grafts) be available?
Hair cloning may become available in 1-2 years in Japan, but widespread availability and affordability could take 7-15 years. Current treatments like finasteride are effective but may lose effectiveness over time.
community 2 month on fin, looks terrible
The user is using finasteride for hair loss and is frustrated with shedding but plans to add oral minoxidil for convenience and safety. There are concerns about using topical minoxidil around pets.
