Did you mean Scanning Electron Microscopy?

GlossaryScanning Electron Microscopy

uses electrons to create detailed surface images of samples

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) is a powerful imaging technique that uses a focused beam of electrons to create highly detailed, three-dimensional images of a sample's surface. Unlike traditional light microscopes, SEM can achieve much higher magnifications and resolutions, making it invaluable for examining the fine details of biological specimens, materials, and nanostructures.

community Verteporfin and Microneedling

in Treatments 5 months ago

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.
