5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Has anyone else seen this encouraging verteporfin case study?
The conversation discusses the potential use of verteporfin for hair loss treatment, with one user mentioning their surgeon's interest in trying it and another noting its research status and clinical use as a YAP inhibitor. Some users debate the market size, availability of generics, and the optimism in the hair loss community regarding new treatments.
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 What happens if you combine dutasteride and a aromataze inhibitor?
community When will FAK Inhibitors / Standford Hydrogel be on the market for hair transplants?
The conversation discusses the delay in bringing FAK inhibitors and Stanford's hydrogel to market for hair transplants, with a preference for FAK inhibitors over Verteporfin due to their superior potential in preventing scarring. The user expresses frustration over the slow progress and hopes for faster development by companies like FAKnostics.
community Dutasteride thrice weekly beats finasteride. But daily?
Dutasteride taken three times a week is more effective for hair regrowth than daily finasteride, with fewer side effects. Some users combine dutasteride and finasteride for better results, while others prefer dutasteride alone due to its longer half-life and potential fertility concerns.
