PP405, a topical LDH inhibitor, has shown to stimulate hair follicle stem cell proliferation in humans with moderate hair loss. They are advancing to more detailed trials this year.
OP injured their temple using derma rolling and tretinoin, causing peeling and potential hair follicle damage. Users suggest the injury might be permanent, possibly resulting in scar tissue where hair won't grow.
The user has DUPA and suspects autoimmune activity as a cause. They have tried various treatments including finasteride, minoxidil, dutasteride, pyrilutamide, estrogel, hydrocortisone, and clobetasol, and are now seeking a long-term immunosuppressant.
Pyrilutamide's systemic degradation is unclear, unlike fluridil, which becomes inactive in the body. The discussion focuses on whether pyrilutamide shares this property.
A study that outlines the full model for androgenic alopecia (AGA) which links DHT to cellular senescence in dermal papilla cells, and suggests black chokeberry as a source of cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside polyphenol with potential anti-oxidant properties that could reverse this process. The post encourages reaching out to experts in anti-aging and longevity to research treatments involving the polyphenol.
The discussion is about using ASCEplus HRLB exosomes for hair loss treatment, which combines 10 billion exosomes with growth factors, nutrients, biotin, and copper tripeptide. The treatment is expensive and typically administered via scalp injections, but in Europe, it's done with microneedling.
Inflammation plays a significant role in hair follicle miniaturization and androgenetic alopecia, with treatments like ketoconazole shampoo, minoxidil, and finasteride being used to address it. Users discuss the benefits of anti-inflammatory treatments and peptides like KPV, alongside traditional hair loss treatments, to improve scalp health and hair quality.
PP405 shows promise in hair loss treatment, but stem cell therapy using adipose-derived stem cells and ATP also successfully reversed androgenetic alopecia in mice. Stem cell therapy is costly, and some doubt the effectiveness of PP405 based on press releases.
A 23-year-old male is experiencing diffuse hair loss and miniaturization, possibly due to high IGE levels after using tofacitinib. He seeks advice and has not yet consulted a dermatologist.
Lichen Planopilaris (LPP) is an autoimmune condition causing permanent hair loss and fibrosis, often misdiagnosed. Treatments include pioglitazone, topical corticosteroids, anti-inflammatory medication, and Jak inhibitors.
Pyrilutamide is a selective AR antagonist with a high binding affinity, making it effective in competing with DHT for androgen receptors. The 1% concentration is more effective than the 0.5%, but the latter may suffice for mild hair loss; the drug is considered a good option for those avoiding 5AR blockers due to side effects.
The user is experiencing diffuse thinning and inflammation despite using 2.5mg dutasteride daily, ciclopirox, and ketoconazole shampoos. They are considering treatments like hydroxychloroquine and JAK inhibitors due to suspected scarring alopecia and have faced challenges in obtaining a scalp biopsy.
Intradermal botulinum toxin (BTX) injections effectively treat androgenetic alopecia (AGA) by inhibiting TGF-β1 secretion from hair follicles. Further research and long-term follow-up are needed to confirm these findings.
A 23-year-old experiencing severe diffuse thinning after scalp inflammation is considering finasteride as a last resort after stopping minoxidil and using anti-inflammatory medication. Users suggest that inflammation causes temporary shedding and recommend consulting a dermatologist, with some advocating for finasteride as a reliable treatment option.
Intermittent fasting may inhibit hair growth by triggering a stress response that affects hair-follicle stem cells. Some users believe genetics and DHT play a larger role in hair loss, and treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride are mentioned as ineffective for some.
Scalp inflammation may contribute to hair thinning, with treatments like ketoconazole shampoo potentially helping by reducing inflammation. Some users report that DHT blockers and other treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841 can alleviate symptoms associated with inflammation.
The conversation is about a 21-year-old using finasteride, dermarolling, ketoconazole shampoo, hair growth serums, and exosome therapy to treat early-stage thinning on the crown. They are questioning if these treatments are sufficient to improve hair thickness.
The conversation discusses the effectiveness of finasteride and microneedling for treating hair loss. The linked article is seen as an advertisement for these treatments.
A user applied the 8T3 product for hair loss, targeting LPP and AGA, and plans to update on its effectiveness. The product uses a saline buffered phosphate vehicle, suitable for those intolerant to ethanolic vehicles.
Hair loss treatment should target dermal white adipose tissue (DWAT) to restore hair follicles. Potential remedies include tocopherol (vitamin E), botox, rosiglitazone, niacin, kojyl cinnamate esters, and ADP355.
Hair loss discussion includes treatments Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841. Prolactin's role in immune system's antitumor activity raises safety concerns for HMI-115.
MCL-1 protein may help maintain hair follicles in the growth phase and prevent miniaturization. There is interest in experimental treatments like exosomes, peptides, or stem cell serums to upregulate MCL-1 for hair loss, especially for those not using minoxidil or finasteride.
Hair follicles can be dormant and potentially revived with treatments like finasteride and minoxidil, but irreversible loss occurs if certain structures are destroyed. Early intervention is more effective, and additional methods like microneedling may help.
The user has tried various hair loss treatments including topical minoxidil, oral finasteride, oral dutasteride, oral minoxidil, and exosome therapy, but none have been effective. They suspect trichodynia might be preventing these treatments from working.
A user is seeing good results with RU58841 for hair loss, noting reduced shedding and thicker hair. They plan to use pumpkin seed oil as a solvent to avoid water content, which they believe reduces the effectiveness of anti-androgens.
Clascoterone in Winlevi, a topical AR antagonist, is being re-examined due to concerns about HPA axis suppression in adolescents, but it's unlikely to be banned for adult use in androgenetic alopecia (AGA). The European Medicines Agency recommended refusing Winlevi for acne vulgaris, but this may not affect Breezula's approval for AGA.
The conversation discusses Pyrilutamide for hair loss, with skepticism about its legitimacy and mentions of an upcoming press release from Kintor. It also references ongoing trials and includes links for further information.
A 32-year-old male with diffuse thinning and seborrheic dermatitis has been using finasteride for 8 months without improvement. He is considering COQ10 + PQQ supplements for scalp inflammation and hair loss.
Exploring different treatments for hair loss, such as cosmeRNA and HMI-115 which are small interference messenger RNA that inhibits the DHT receptor and an antibody that binds to the prolactin (PRL) receptor respectively; and researching mechanism and environment of hyperresponders.
