This study observed that mercury-lamp irradiation may cause cleavage of disulfide bonds in keratins of white hair, leading to the formation of thiols in laboratory settings.
research Comparative Study of the Effect of UV- VS. Gamma Radiation on Human Hair
This study found that human hair shows progressive damage from UV and gamma radiation exposure, with fluorescence intensity serving as a sensitive measure of radiation-induced changes.
research Biomolecules of Fermented Tropical Fruits and Fermenting Microbes as Regulators of Human Hair Loss, Hair Quality, and Scalp Microbiota
This study found that hair care products containing fermented papaya, fermented mangosteen, and caffeine significantly inhibited hair loss, increased hair density and thickness, and improved hair follicle structure in individuals with androgenic or diffuse alopecia over three months compared to placebo and caffeine controls.
research Effect of Topical Gel Administration of Secretome Hypoxia Mesenchymal Stem Cells (SH-MSCs) on IL-10 and TNF- α Gene Expression (In Vivo Experimental Study in Male Rats of Wistar Strains Model of Fluconazole-Induced Alopecia)
In this study, topical administration of secretome hypoxia mesenchymal stem cells gel increased IL-10 and decreased TNF-α gene expression in a fluconazole-induced alopecia-like model in rats, with the 40 μL dose having the most significant effect.

4 / 801 results- What is sh-Polypeptide-7 and why is it used in some advanced hair serums and treatments? sh-Polypeptide-7 is a synthetic peptide that supports hair growth and scalp regeneration.
- How does sh-Polypeptide-7 help stimulate hair follicle activity or reduce scalp inflammation? sh-Polypeptide-7 is the INCI name for a lab-made form of human growth hormone (somatotropin) — not EGF, which is sh-Oligopeptide-1. Growth hormone and IGF-1 signalling is documented in hair follicle biology, but there is no published human trial of sh-Polypeptide-7 applied to the scalp for hair growth or scalp inflammation.
- Is sh-Polypeptide-7 considered a natural or synthetic ingredient, and how is it typically applied? sh-Polypeptide-7 is a synthetic ingredient applied in hair-care products.

Follicopeptide (FOL005) by Coegin Pharma will launch as a cosmetic hair growth treatment by Q2 2025, showing similar efficacy to finasteride. Users discuss the benefits and skepticism of releasing hair loss treatments as cosmetics rather than drugs.
community Have people with aggressive balding genetics genuinely had any results after applying any natural remedies ie:rosemary oil,coconut oil,Onion Juice etc
Natural remedies like rosemary oil, coconut oil, and onion juice are generally seen as less effective compared to medical treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and microneedling. Some users believe natural oils can help, but modern medicine is often more reliable.
community What an amazing time to be alive
The post discusses a user's experience with hair loss treatments, specifically topical finasteride, minoxidil, and micro-needling, and their plan to switch to oral versions and add Dutasteride. The conversation includes various responses, with some users sharing their own experiences and side effects, and others expressing desire for a more permanent hair loss solution.
community Finasteride, 6 mo, my experience (and my personal take)
