research Novel Tip-Loaded Dissolving and Implantable Microneedle Array Patches for Sustained Release of Finasteride
New dissolving and implantable microneedle patches have been created for a long-lasting, non-invasive delivery of the drug finasteride.
research Sustained Release of Inhibitor from Bionic Scaffolds for Wound Healing and Functional Regeneration
Researchers developed a scaffold that releases a healing drug over time, improving wound healing and skin regeneration.
research Composite Hydrogel Dressing with Drug-Release Capability and Enhanced Mechanical Performance
The hydrogel dressing improves wound healing, offers long-lasting antibacterial effects, and enhances patient comfort.
research Combining Rapid Degrading Microneedles With Slow-Released Drug Delivery System for the Treatment of Alopecia Areata
A new microneedle patch treats hair loss effectively with fewer side effects and less frequent use.
research Development and Characterization of Hydrogel Containing Finasteride
The hydrogel with Finasteride provides controlled, sustained drug release and improved bioavailability.

5 / 148 resultscommunity New and Interesting HairLoss Studies/Papers/Reviews
Hair loss treatments discussed include Dutasteride with Ketoconazole, tissue engineering strategies, and androgenetic alopecia therapies. Massage doubles follicular retention, improving treatment effectiveness.
community Are permanent hair gains even possible?
Hair regrowth from treatments like minoxidil, RU58841, and finasteride is not permanent; stopping these treatments typically results in hair loss resuming. Beard hair can become permanent with minoxidil use, unlike scalp hair, which requires ongoing treatment to maintain gains.
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.
community Anageninc no longer sell KX-826 (Pyrilutamide) due to receiving a cease and desist letter from Kintor :(
Hair loss treatments discussed include Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841. Anageninc stopped selling KX-826 (Pyrilutamide) due to a cease and desist letter from Kintor, but this may indicate promising study results and a potential 2024 release.
community [Theory] Big Bald is deliberately delaying the cure indefinitely
The conversation humorously suggests that the hair loss industry, referred to as "Big Bald," deliberately delays a cure to profit from ongoing treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride. Participants debate whether a cure would be more profitable than current treatments, with some suggesting that the industry prefers continuous treatments for sustained profit.
