research A systematic summary of survival and death signalling during the life of hair follicle stem cells
The conclusion is that understanding how hair follicle stem cells live or die is important for maintaining healthy tissue and repairing injuries, and could help treat hair loss, but there are still challenges to overcome.
research Pharmacological Activation of Thermo–Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 3 Channels Inhibits Hair Growth by Inducing Cell Death of Hair Follicle Outer Root Sheath
Activating TRPV3 channels stops hair growth by killing hair follicle cells.
research Induction of Cell Proliferation and Cell Death in Human Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells by Zinc Chloride
Zinc chloride can cause human scalp cells to multiply and die.
research 1391 Cell death functions in hair follicle regeneration
Proper cell death regulation is crucial for normal hair follicle regeneration and skin remodeling.
research Time and depth resolved visualisation of the diffusion of a lipophilic dye into the hair follicle of fresh unfixed human scalp skin
The dye quickly penetrates hair follicles, mainly through the gap, not the surrounding skin.

Microneedling at depths greater than 0.6 mm may damage miniaturized hair follicles, with 0.5 mm showing better results for hair regrowth. Combining microneedling with minoxidil enhances absorption, but caution is advised to avoid damaging follicles.
community [Nov 2019] The peptide AC 2 isolated from Bacillus-treated Trapa japonica fruit extract rescues DHT (dihydrotestosterone)-treated human dermal papilla cells and mediates mTORC1 signaling for autophagy and apoptosis suppression
A peptide from Japanese water chestnut fruit may help with hair loss by suppressing DHT's effect on hair follicle cell death, potentially serving as a finasteride alternative. The treatment's effectiveness and safety in humans remain uncertain.
community Is microneedling worth it when you're on dut and oral min?
Microneedling may not significantly enhance hair growth when combined with dutasteride and oral minoxidil, as its primary benefit is improving topical absorption. Some users suggest using a 1.5mm depth for potential follicle stimulation, but results and effectiveness vary.
community Can microneedling damage existing hair?
Microneedling is unlikely to damage existing hair if done with a device using a smaller needle count, like a 9-needle cartridge, and a stamping motion. Hair follicles are deeper than the typical needle penetration depth.
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.
