research Chemotherapy Targets the Hair-Follicle Vascular Network but Not the Stem Cells

45 citations , July 2006 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

This study found that doxorubicin disrupts hair-follicle-associated blood vessels, which may contribute to hair follicle dystrophy and alopecia in mice, but hair-follicle stem cells remained unaffected.

research Vascular targeting for botulinum toxin pain injections

May 2013 in “Toxicon”

Botulinum toxin-A may increase hair growth and reduce hair loss in men with baldness, and injecting near blood vessels can improve pain relief and last longer.

research Vascular endothelial cells: Targets for studying the activity of hair follicle cell-produced VEGF

9 citations , December 1996 in “Cell Biology and Toxicology”

This study found that conditioned medium from hair dermal papilla cells stimulated fetal bovine aortic endothelial cell growth and migration, suggesting VEGF-like activity in the medium.

research 3 Vascular endothelial cells: targets for studying the activity of hair follicle cell-produced VEGF

1 citations , December 1996 in “Cell Biology and Toxicology”

research TRASER: Acute phase vascular and follicular changes

4 citations , April 2014 in “Lasers in Surgery and Medicine”

This observational study reports that a TRASER device using specific wavelengths for vascular and follicular targets showed both clinical responses and histological changes, suggesting its potential as an effective vascular and hair removal tool.

community Microneedling must reach the stem cells in the upper hair shaft

82 upvotes 4 years ago

Microneedling should target depths of 0.5mm to 1.5mm for hair loss, with weekly sessions at 1mm recommended. Combining microneedling with Minoxidil is common for improved results.

community The cure we've been ignoring: Anal Dutasteride

225 upvotes 4 months ago

The conversation humorously discusses using anal administration of Dutasteride as a novel method for treating hair loss, suggesting it could target DHT production more effectively. It includes satirical comments about the method's potential effects and absurd outcomes.

community My microneedling journey (no min, fin, etc)

in Microneedling 210 upvotes 1 year ago

The user experienced positive hair growth results using microneedling with rosemary and mint oil, without Minoxidil, Finasteride, or RU58841. They switched from a dermaroller to a microneedling pen and targeted different scalp areas weekly.

community Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to work in the scalp. Not weeks. Be careful.

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 41 upvotes 2 years ago

Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to affect scalp DHT levels, not just a week. The prostate absorbs Dutasteride faster than the scalp due to different vascular networks and enzyme densities.

community My crown before and after 12 months of 1.25mg finasteride every day. Taken after shower under the same light

in Progress Pictures 54 upvotes 4 months ago

A 23-year-old user shared progress pictures after 12 months of using 1.25mg finasteride daily, reporting reduced hair shedding and considering adding 2.5mg oral minoxidil for further improvement.
