GlossaryCollagen Deposition

process of collagen buildup in tissues for structural support

Collagen deposition refers to the process by which collagen, a structural protein, is produced and accumulated in tissues. This process is crucial for wound healing and maintaining the strength and elasticity of skin, tendons, and other connective tissues. In the context of hair and alopecia, excessive or insufficient collagen deposition can affect hair follicle health and potentially contribute to hair loss conditions.

community microneedle, any long term users damage?

in Microneedling 35 upvotes 2 years ago

Microneedling is effective for hair growth, especially when combined with finasteride and minoxidil, but concerns exist about potential long-term skin damage. Users report increased collagen and elastin deposition, but the long-term effects on the scalp remain uncertain.

community Perifollicular Fibrosis and its role in androgenetic alopecia. Is Aminexil/Kopexil a must for anyone with AGA?

in Research/Science 4 upvotes 4 years ago

Aminexil/Kopexil may help reduce hair loss by addressing perifollicular fibrosis in androgenetic alopecia, but it lacks the extensive clinical backing of finasteride and minoxidil. Some users find it effective, but availability and cost are issues, especially in the US where it's not FDA-approved.

community What about botox injections on the scalp?

in Research/Science 7 upvotes 3 years ago

Botox injections on the scalp may help with hair loss, as one small study showed improvement in 8 out of 10 subjects. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

community A PSA for everyone in here dealing with shedding

in Treatment 72 upvotes 1 year ago

Hair loss treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and dutasteride require patience, as they can take months or years to show results, with initial shedding being common. Consistency is key, and unnecessary supplements should be avoided to prevent stress and impatience from worsening the situation.

community Microneedling Isn’t Snake Oil — It’s Evidence-Based. Let’s Talk Studies, Not Fear.

in Research/Science 40 upvotes 1 year ago

Microneedling is supported by research as an effective adjuvant treatment for hair loss, especially when combined with Minoxidil or Finasteride, with minimal side effects if done properly. Concerns about long-term safety and potential risks like infection or fibrosis remain, but many users report positive results.
