learn Hydrocortisone

Mild corticosteroid used on the skin and scalp

learn Azelaic Acid

Is azelaic acid safe to use daily long-term? Azelaic acid has a long tolerability record on facial skin in acne and rosacea, where side effects are local and usually mild — but for daily long-term scalp use the only trial is one six-month study in 26 women, in which mild itching was the main adverse effect, so long-term scalp safety is not established.

learn Latanoprost

What are the possible side effects of using latanoprost on the scalp? No study has measured the side effects of latanoprost on the scalp. The reactions listed here are extrapolated from the eye-drop label — irritation, burning, itching and skin darkening — plus the systemic reactions the label records at ophthalmic doses; absorption over a whole scalp has never been measured.

learn Microneedling

Technique that makes tiny punctures in the scalp with fine needles

learn Minoxidil

Vasodilator used on the scalp and, at low doses, as a tablet

learn Rosemary

Herb whose oil is used in hair care

learn Neem Oil

Oil from the neem tree, used in traditional remedies

learn Melatonin

Can melatonin cause side effects on the skin or hair? No study links melatonin to hair loss; reports are anecdotal. Some users report scalp dryness or irritation from topical products, and a safety review lists mainly mild side effects such as sleepiness and headache.

learn Follistatin

Can follistatin be applied to the skin, and does any form of it treat hair loss? No study shows that follistatin applied to the skin works, and no form of follistatin is an approved or proven hair-loss treatment. Follistatin injections, "research peptides" and gene therapies sold outside regulated trials are unapproved and of unknown safety.

learn Hyaluronic Acid

Does hyaluronic acid really hydrate the scalp, or is it mainly for skin care? Hyaluronic acid improved hydration of facial skin in trials. It has not been tested on the scalp.
