      community 2800 FUE Asmed Koray Erdogan Istanbul, complete failure

      in Transplants  287 upvotes 8 months ago
      A user had a failed hair transplant with 2800 FUE grafts at a clinic in Turkey, where finasteride was used, and the procedure was poorly executed by technicians rather than the main surgeon.

      community Verteporfin and Microneedling

      in Treatments 1 year ago
      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.
