A new human trial using an FDA-approved treatment for wound healing called Verteporfin, which may potentially be able to reverse scarring and regrow hair in that area. The trial is only lasting one month so far.
David Barreto shared that a London-based research group is conducting a 12-month trial for a new nutraceutical treatment for pattern hair loss, designed with Dr. Carlos Puig. The trial aims to provide robust data, with results expected in 1-2 years, potentially representing a significant advancement since finasteride’s introduction in 1997.
PP405 may damage hairfollicles if used long-term, suggesting cycling might be necessary. Combining it with finasteride could help maintain hair growth.
Exploring the idea of transplanting miniaturized hairfollicles to healthier areas to potentially reverse hair loss, with concerns about DHT sensitivity and scar tissue formation. The conversation also humorously considers using mice for hair growth experiments.
Hair loss therapies focusing on hairfollicle sugar metabolism and aldose reductase. Potential treatments include magnesium supplements, avoiding high glycemic index foods, and antioxidants.
PP405 is anticipated as a future treatment for dormant hairfollicles, but its effectiveness and safety are uncertain. Current treatments include oral minoxidil and microneedling, with some avoiding finasteride due to side effects.
Intermittent fasting may suppress hairfollicle regeneration, but opinions vary on its impact on hair loss. Some users report no negative effects or even hair improvement while using treatments like finasteride and minoxidil.
The conversation discusses various factors affecting hair loss, not just DHT, and mentions treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and melatonin. Some users report personal experiences with these treatments and hormone tests, while others speculate on the role of hormones like prolactin and cortisol in hair loss.
Deoxyribose sugar gel may stimulate hair regrowth similarly to minoxidil by enhancing blood supply and follicle activity. Human trials are necessary, and current products have mixed results.
This conversation discusses the advancements in treatments for hair loss, including finasteride, dutasteride, minoxidil and new promising treatments such as pyrilutamide and verteporfin. Other treatments discussed were taking minoxidil orally, tretinoin to turn non-responders into responders and microneedling to further boost growth.
A new stem cell method for culturing hairfollicles is being developed as an alternative to Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841. There are concerns about its cost and accessibility despite plans for commercialization.
Stress can lead to hair loss by affecting hair-follicle stem cells, and this loss is harder to recover from if one has male pattern baldness (MPB). Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are used to address hair loss, but stress-related hair loss differs from androgenic alopecia.
User experienced hair loss from Norwood 3.5 to Norwood 5 with diffuse thinning after using a hair system for 2 years. Tried Redensyl, Capixyl, Bicapil, Biotin, multivitamins, Fin, and Min without significant improvement, seeking advice for hair recovery.
Carnosic acid in rosemary extract may enhance skin repair and promote hairfollicle regeneration. It could be used alone or with verteporfin for scarless healing after dermal wounding.
Vitamin D may counteract DHT and help with hair growth, as seen in mice and humanhair cultures. Some users discuss using Vitamin D, magnesium, and other supplements for hair health, while others humorously note the success in mice.
A new hair loss treatment involving Keratin Microsphere Gel is discussed, with skepticism and jokes about its effectiveness and comparisons to other treatments. Users are doubtful and make light of the situation, referencing past disappointments and the study's focus on mice.
SCUBE3 and GT20029 are potential treatments for hair loss, with SCUBE3 stimulating hair growth and GT20029 protecting against DHT. A combined approach using SCUBE3, finasteride or dutasteride, and later GT20029 could provide a comprehensive treatment for androgenetic alopecia.
A new technique developed by scientists in Japan to reverse balding using hairfollicle cell transplants, and the discussion around the effectiveness of this approach compared to other treatments such as Minoxidil, finasteride, RU58841, Replicel, and Hairclone.
Liposomal formulations of finasteride and minoxidil may enhance drug delivery to the skin and hairfollicles more effectively than traditional solutions, potentially improving treatment outcomes. However, more human clinical trials are needed to confirm these benefits.
Corticosterone inhibits GAS6, affecting hairfollicle stem-cell activity, with potential implications for stress-related hair loss. Ashwagandha and Vitamin K are suggested for reducing cortisol, but their effectiveness is debated.
