GlossaryAngiogenesis (neovascularization)

formation of new blood vessels from existing ones

Angiogenesis is the process by which new blood vessels form from pre-existing ones. This is crucial for wound healing, growth, and development, as well as in pathological conditions like cancer, where tumors stimulate angiogenesis to secure a blood supply for their growth.

Treatments for hair loss, including finasteride, dutasteride, minoxidil, ketoconazole, microneedling, and low level laser light therapy, which aim to reduce DHT production, increase cell absorption and blood flow, and stimulate epidermal stem cells. It also stresses the importance of patience when using these treatments.
