5 / 357 resultscommunity Verteporfin with Microneedling (3mm-3.5mm): Bald to Full Head of Hair? Theory
The conversation is about using Verteporfin with microneedling as a potential hair loss treatment that may regenerate hair follicles with minimal scarring. There are concerns about the optimal dosage and the DHT sensitivity of the new follicles.
community What's the general consensus on microneedling here?
The conversation discusses microneedling for hair loss, focusing on optimal needle depth and frequency. Users report varying practices, with some using Minoxidil after microneedling and others suggesting different depths and frequencies based on personal tolerance.
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.
community Is microneedling supposed to be a blood bath? 1mm dermastamp
The conversation is about someone experiencing a lot of bleeding from using a 1.0mm microneedling device for hair loss treatment and asking if it's normal. Various users suggest that the bleeding is excessive and recommend using shorter needles or less pressure, while others share their own microneedling practices with different needle lengths and no bleeding.
community 14-month update - dut, min, niz, 1.5mm roller.
A user shared a 14-month hair loss treatment update using dutasteride, minoxidil foam, a 1.5mm derma roller, and Nizoral, with noticeable hair regrowth and no side effects. The discussion highlights the effectiveness of microneedling in combination with topical treatments, with many users agreeing it significantly enhances results.
