The conversation is about someone experiencing a lot of bleeding from using a 1.0mm microneedling device for hair loss treatment and asking if it's normal. Various users suggest that the bleeding is excessive and recommend using shorter needles or less pressure, while others share their own microneedling practices with different needle lengths and no bleeding.
community Could low blood flow to the head cause an increased rate of thinning?
The user started using finasteride, minoxidil, and biotin for male pattern baldness (MPB) and is experiencing rapid thinning. They are questioning if low blood flow to the head could be contributing to their hair loss.
community Why don't Minoxidil regenerated hairs become terminal on the head?
Minoxidil helps hair growth by increasing blood flow and prolonging the growth phase, but it doesn't address the root cause of hair loss, such as DHT sensitivity. Finasteride can help maintain some gains by blocking DHT, but stopping Minoxidil often leads to hair loss because the new hairs are dependent on it.
community The theory that explains everything. The malloclusion theory has been proven.
Brian Dye's theory links skeletal malocclusion type II to hair loss, suggesting it's a blood flow issue. Treatments mentioned include minoxidil, finasteride, and anti-inflammatory drugs like benaxoprofen.
community Any concrete cases of people who were told they couldn't have a transplant because of microneedling?
Microneedling before a hair transplant may harden the scalp and affect blood circulation, potentially impacting graft growth. Some users report successful transplants after microneedling, while others advise caution and consulting with a surgeon.
