5 / 176 resultscommunity Do we have an agreed upon consensus on the best microneedling length?
A video suggests 0.6mm microneedling is more effective for hair regrowth than 1.2mm, as it causes less trauma to stem cells. People commonly believe 1.5mm is best, but this may vary based on individual factors.
community Does this look like progress? 1 month difference
A user shared their hair loss treatment journey, using topical Minoxidil, Finasteride, Tretinoin, and Stemoxydine, and asked for feedback on progress after one month. Responses varied, with some users suggesting patience and consistency, while others noted minimal visible change.
community Minoxidil + Tretinoin if you suspect you have low sulfotransferase enzyme activity
Minoxidil may not be effective due to low sulfotransferase activity, and the user considers adding tretinoin to the regimen. They are unsure about the timing and combination with microneedling.
community Tretinoin vs. micro-needling: what increases sulfotransferase activity more?
Tretinoin and microneedling both enhance hair growth through different mechanisms, with microneedling being considered safe for long-term use. Optimal microneedling needle length varies, but 0.8 mm is suggested for hair growth, and a Dermastamp is recommended to avoid skin damage.
community Minoxidil Non-responders: Have you tried Minoxidil Sulfate?
Minoxidil non-responders may benefit from using minoxidil sulfate due to reduced sulfotransferase activity in their scalps. Users are encouraged to share their experiences with minoxidil sulfate.
