community OFFICIAL Multi-Center Verteporfin Trial Recruitment
Recruitment for a verteporfin trial and a separate hair cloning trial using verteporfin and other methods is underway, with locations in Jordan, NYC, Beverly Hills, and Memphis. Dr. Bloxham is conducting the hair cloning trial, and interested participants are encouraged to contact him directly.
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.
