      in Research/Science  3 upvotes 2 years ago
      The review discusses traditional hair loss treatments like minoxidil and finasteride, and newer options like Low-Level Laser Therapy, microneedling, and platelet-rich plasma for androgenetic alopecia. It highlights the need for more high-quality trials to assess these treatments' effectiveness and standardized protocols for emerging therapies.

      community New Study For LLLT > Minoxidil

      in Research/Science  7 upvotes 1 year ago
      LLLT (low-level laser therapy) is as effective or better than traditional minoxidil treatment for hair growth, with fewer side effects and improved long-term compliance due to milder adverse effects. Studies show LLLT increases hair density more than minoxidil, but drawbacks include the initial cost and the need for long-term use to see results.

      community Has anyone tried latanoprost+microneedle?

      in Microneedling  2 upvotes 2 years ago
      Microneedling combined with latanoprost may convert vellus hairs to transitional or terminal hairs. The user suggests using oral minoxidil to increase vellus hair, then applying a high concentration of latanoprost with microneedling for conversion.
