5 / 466 resultscommunity Lion Mane Part 2: Microneedling with Topicals, beneficial compounds, maybe?
The conversation discusses microneedling techniques and the use of Minoxidil, copper peptides, EGF, FGF, ceramides, and hydration serums to enhance hair growth. It explores optimizing scalp conditions and the potential benefits of various compounds in conjunction with microneedling.
community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
community New Research- Creatine Increasing Scalp DHT Without Corresponding Serum DHT Increase
Creatine may increase scalp DHT without affecting serum DHT, potentially speeding up male pattern baldness (MPB) for those genetically prone. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community P-1075: a BETTER version of Minoxidil
P-1075 is a more potent hair growth agent than Minoxidil, but it poses significant heart risks, making it unsafe for use. Despite promising results in macaques, concerns about its cardiotoxicity in rats have halted its development.
community [22m] Is it time for a transplant?
A 22-year-old is experiencing aggressive hair loss despite using minoxidil and finasteride and is considering a hair transplant but lacks funds. The discussion includes advice on treatments like dutasteride, microneedling, and lifestyle changes, with mixed opinions on the timing and effectiveness of a transplant at a young age.
