community Minoxidil Response Bottlenecks: Why Sulfation and Transport Matter (And Where Tretinoin Fits In)
Minoxidil's effectiveness is limited by the need for sulfation and proper transport to hair follicles, with tretinoin potentially enhancing its effects by promoting enzyme activity and keratinocyte differentiation. Tretinoin may improve minoxidil's response by boosting the expression of necessary enzymes and transporters.
community A Theory on Why Microneedling Works
Microneedling may enhance hair regrowth by transferring stem cells to dormant follicles, improving the effects of minoxidil. Users discuss using microneedling with needle lengths around 1.5mm to stimulate hair growth.
community If you aren't happy with your results but haven't tried microneedling: why not?
Microneedling with minoxidil significantly boosts hair growth, even for non-responders to minoxidil alone. The routine includes a 1.5mm dermaroller weekly and minoxidil twice daily, with some users adding finasteride and tretinoin.
community The truth about Dutasteride (w/ sources)
The effectiveness of Dutasteride compared to Finasteride in treating hair loss, with evidence given such as studies and experiences, as well as discussion around whether one should switch from Finasteride to Dutasteride. There is also a discussion on post-Dutasteride syndrome.
community Comprehensive Microneedling Guide
Microneedling for hair restoration involves daily use of a 0.3 mm device and weekly use of a 0.5 mm device. Combining microneedling with Minoxidil can enhance hair growth.
