research Follicular Unit Transplantation: Comparison of Video Microscopic vs. Combination Methods
This study found that using a combination of video microscope for slivering and loupe magnification for graft-cutting in hair transplants achieved nearly double the graft productivity with similar transection rates compared to using only a digital video microscope.
research Use of Low-Cost Videomicroscopy versus Standard Videodermatoscopy in Trichoscopy: A Controlled, Blinded Noninferiority Trial
This study suggests that while low-cost videomicroscopes can correctly identify hair shaft alterations, they may be unreliable for detailed follicular and perifollicular trichoscopic examination compared to standard videodermatoscopes.
research Use of low cost videomicroscopy vs standard videodermatoscopy in trichoscopy: A controlled, blinded noninferiority trial
The study suggests low-cost videomicroscopes may identify some hair shaft features but are unreliable for comprehensive scalp trichoscopy compared to standard devices, due to color and resolution limitations.
research RGB video microscopic system for in-vitro monitoring of optical properties of hair shaft and follicle
This paper presents an RGB video microscopic system to monitor optical properties of hair shafts and follicles in vitro, but reports no new clinical results.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Highly recommend buying a microscope (see pictures)
A user recommends using a microscope to assess hair density and track hair loss progress, finding it useful for evaluating treatment effectiveness, particularly with dutasteride and minoxidil. They advise against obsessing over hair loss and emphasize focusing on other meaningful life aspects.
community Summary of Procapil video by Haircafe
Procapil is marketed as a natural hair loss treatment but lacks strong evidence and is industry-biased. Minoxidil and Finasteride are the only FDA-approved treatments for androgenetic alopecia.
community Are these derma rollers bad/ineffective? Bought this just a few days ago and today I was watching a YT video where the guy said that these stainless steel ones can be more harmful and that the ones with titanium needles should be preferred. So should I buy a titanium one or am I okay with these?
Titanium-tipped derma stamps are preferred over stainless steel rollers for safer and more effective skin treatment. Rollers can cause skin damage if used incorrectly, while stamps provide cleaner punctures.
community Well whatever is working for me is clearly working for me
The user experienced significant hair regrowth using oral and topical minoxidil, dutasteride, and microneedling, with natural hair returning despite previous baldness and transplants. The treatment appears effective, as hair has darkened and increased in length.
community What is this pigmentation around my follicles?
The conversation discusses potential causes of pigmentation around hair follicles, suggesting sebum buildup, autoimmune conditions, or dermatitis. Treatments mentioned include finasteride, dutasteride, and an anti-inflammatory diet, with a recommendation to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis.
