research Minoxidil Stimulates Elastin Expression in Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells
research Stimulation of Elastin Expression by Minoxidil in Chick Skin Fibroblasts
Minoxidil boosts elastin production, potentially helping skin diseases.
research Minoxidil: Mechanisms of Action on Hair Growth
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by opening potassium channels and increasing cell activity.
research Medical Treatments for Male and Female Pattern Hair Loss
Minoxidil and finasteride treat hair loss in men, while minoxidil treats hair loss in women.
research Skin Aging and Menopause: Implications for Treatment
Menopause can lead to skin and hair problems due to hormonal changes, but hormone replacement therapy might help slow these effects.
research Minoxidil Use in Dermatology, Side Effects, and Recent Patents
Minoxidil treats hair loss, promotes growth, has side effects, and has recent patents.
research Hormone Replacement Therapy and the Skin
Estrogen replacement can improve skin health in menopausal women but doesn't reverse sun damage or prevent hair loss.
research Estrogens and the Skin
Estrogen loss during menopause worsens skin health, but hormone replacement therapy may improve it, though more research is needed.
research Skin Connective Tissue and Aging
Menopause reduces skin collagen and elasticity, and while estrogen therapy can help, its risks require careful consideration.
