research Epidermal Cells Expressing Putative Cell Markers in Nonglabrous Skin Existing in Direct Proximity with the Distal End of the Arrector Pili Muscle
Certain skin cells near the base of hair muscles may help renew and stabilize skin, possibly affecting skin disorder understanding.
research Multifunctional Merkel cells: Their roles in electromagnetic reception, finger-print formation, Reiki, epigenetic inheritance and hair form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research The histopathologic spectrum of psoriasis
Psoriasis skin changes are complex and might need several biopsies for a clear diagnosis.
research Location and phenotype of human adult keratinocyte stem cells of the skin
Stem cells are in deep skin layers, while differentiating cells are in shallow layers.
research Localization of Merkel cells at hairless and hairy human skin sites using keratin 18

Applying Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) topically may improve skin and potentially promote scalp health and hair growth, especially after microneedling. The user shares their positive experience with EGF and provides a product link.
community Clearing the air on how non-surgical treatments really work
Treatments for hair loss, including finasteride, dutasteride, minoxidil, ketoconazole, microneedling, and low level laser light therapy, which aim to reduce DHT production, increase cell absorption and blood flow, and stimulate epidermal stem cells. It also stresses the importance of patience when using these treatments.
community Microneedling must reach the stem cells in the upper hair shaft
Microneedling should target depths of 0.5mm to 1.5mm for hair loss, with weekly sessions at 1mm recommended. Combining microneedling with Minoxidil is common for improved results.
community Another molecular pathway to promote scarless healing and regenerate hair follicles
Carnosic acid in rosemary extract may enhance skin repair and promote hair follicle regeneration. It could be used alone or with verteporfin for scarless healing after dermal wounding.
community Is tazarotene potentially better than tretinoin in combination with topical minoxidil?
Tazarotene may be more effective than tretinoin when combined with topical minoxidil for hair loss due to its selective binding to RAR-beta and gamma, though it can cause irritation. Tazarotene's potency can lead to indirect inflammatory reactions despite potentially causing less irritation than tretinoin.
