Hair loss treatments discussed include Dutasteride with Ketoconazole, tissue engineering strategies, and androgenetic alopecia therapies. Massage doubles follicular retention, improving treatment effectiveness.
community I hate it when people write off your hairloss info because “you’re not a doctor.”
A user shared their frustration about their cousin's refusal to take their advice on using finasteride for aggressive hair loss, despite the cousin's desperation and current use of minoxidil and consideration of PRP injections. The user, who has done extensive research, suggested the cousin needs a 5ar inhibitor, but the cousin dismisses the advice because the user isn't a doctor.
community Dude had better hair at over 100 years of age than many of us at 20
Hair loss discussion mentions Native Americans' resistance to male pattern baldness and lack of facial hair. Users discuss genetics, sun exposure, and potential treatments like minoxidil and finasteride.
community Topical serum made from monounsaturated fatty acids that triggered rapid hair growth in mice within 20 days
A topical serum made from monounsaturated fatty acids showed rapid hair growth in mice within 20 days, but it remains experimental for humans. Users humorously discussed the frequent success of hair growth treatments in mice and expressed skepticism about translating these results to humans.
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.
