community Random thought that I don't think I have seen here yet. If Verteporfin is able to stop scar formation successfully in humans to a large degree (assuming future studies show this), wouldn't this basically open up the door for it being a no brainer for strong NW2s and 3s to opt for hairline lowering?
The conversation discusses the potential for Verteporfin to reduce scarring, making hairline lowering surgeries more viable for men with mild hair loss. The user suggests that if scarring can be minimized, men might opt for hairline lowering instead of using grafts for other areas.
