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.

The potential of verteporfin to heal wounds without scarring; however, despite its promising preclinical trials and coverage from a major media outlet, there is still no official clinical trial result and the drug has only garnered attention from hair loss communities.

Hair loss treatments pyrilutamide and GT20029 discussed. Pyrilutamide approval in 2 years, GT20029 in 5-6+ years.

Various methods of using minoxidil, including taking it orally, to treat hair loss. Finasteride is also mentioned as another treatment option.

Hair loss treatments like GT20029, pyrilutamide, and Follica show promise in 2022. Phase 1 and 2 trials are underway, and new hair growth studies have been published.
