research Penetration enhancer-containing vesicles (PEVs) as carriers for cutaneous delivery of minoxidil

128 citations , July 2009 in “International Journal of Pharmaceutics”

This study found that penetration enhancer-containing vesicles significantly improved minoxidil delivery to the skin compared to traditional liposomes and penetration enhancer-containing ethanolic solutions, with deformability linked to enhanced deposition.

research Penetration and storage of particles in human skin: Perspectives and safety aspects

122 citations , April 2011 in “European Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics”

This review discusses the mechanisms and storage of particles in hair follicles and presents no new experimental results, highlighting the need for further research in their safe application in dermatology and cosmetics.

research Penetration of silver nanoparticles into porcine skinex vivousing fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy, Raman microscopy, and surface-enhanced Raman scattering microscopy

90 citations , November 2014 in “Journal of Biomedical Optics”

In this study, silver nanoparticles were found to penetrate porcine skin to depths ranging from 11.1 μm to 15.6 μm, potentially surpassing the stratum corneum thickness.

learn Finasteride

Do you want finasteride to penetrate better? The ideal solvent to maximize its effect. Formulation sources describe propylene glycol and microemulsion vehicles as increasing how much topical finasteride crosses the skin, but better penetration has not been shown to mean better hair results, and it also raises systemic exposure. The vehicle and strength are decisions for a prescriber or compounding pharmacist.

learn Hair Transplant

What is the DHI hair transplant technique? DHI is a hair transplant technique that uses a pen for direct implantation without incisions.
Will I feel pain during a hair transplant? Most patients feel minimal discomfort during a hair transplant due to local anesthesia.
What is the donor area in a hair transplant? The donor area in a hair transplant is typically the back and sides of the head.

learn Scalp Micropigmentation

Can I use hair loss treatments (finasteride, minoxidil) after scalp micropigmentation? About half of clinics say finasteride can continue through scalp micropigmentation, and about half ask clients to pause topical minoxidil during the sessions and for roughly 30 days afterwards. That pause is clinic aftercare convention, not a label instruction - ask your prescriber first, because stopping minoxidil usually causes shedding.
