A person is experimenting with microneedling on one temple while using Minoxidil to address hair loss. They plan to needle weekly and apply Minoxidil twice daily, avoiding application around needlingsessions.
A 25-year-old female is experiencing hair loss and has tried PRP, Minoxidil 5% with Biotin, and weekly needlingsessions. Her doctor suggested switching to GFC treatment and stopping the needlingsessions due to increased shedding, which may be caused by Minoxidil.
The user switched from finasteride to dutasteride for hair loss treatment, also using topical minoxidil, micro needling, keto shampoo, and PRP sessions. They've seen improvements, with reduced hair shedding and new hair growth, especially at the hairline.
Microneedling can cause skin shedding and inflammation, with some users adjusting needle size or frequency to reduce these effects. Some users combine microneedling with treatments like minoxidil, while others prefer smaller needles or alternative treatments like dutasteride.
Microneedling combined with minoxidil is more effective for hair growth than microneedling alone. Optimal results are seen with weekly microneedling using 0.5 - 1mm needles and regular minoxidil application, avoiding minoxidil on the needled area for 24 hours.
