    process where skin repairs itself after damage

    Skin regeneration, also known as skin healing or dermal regeneration, is the process by which the skin repairs itself after injury. This involves a complex series of events including inflammation, tissue formation, and remodeling, where new cells are produced to replace damaged ones, restoring the skin's integrity and function. This process is crucial for maintaining the protective barrier of the body and can be influenced by factors such as age, nutrition, and overall health.

      community Beyond Minoxidil & Finasteride: What if the Answer to Male Pattern Baldness is... on Our Faces? (A Naval Officer's Wild Idea & Why It's Not So Crazy)

      in What should I do? 2 weeks ago
      Exploring the idea of using facial hair properties for scalp regeneration in male pattern baldness, considering the potential of transferring androgen-resistant characteristics from facial hair to the scalp. Challenges include complexity, scalability, aesthetics, and safety, but the concept encourages innovative thinking beyond current treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and hair transplants.

      community Verteporfin and Microneedling

      in Treatments 1 year 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.
