5 / 354 resultscommunity Pelage PP405: New Hair Growth from Inactive Follicular Units - Phase 2a results at AAD 2026
PP405, a topical treatment, shows promise for hair growth by activating inactive follicles, with 66% of participants experiencing positive results. The treatment is well-tolerated and may proceed directly to Phase 3 trials, offering a potential alternative to minoxidil and finasteride.
community Can single hairs follicules be able to produce two hairs once again with treatment? Never saw a study about that.
The conversation is about whether treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil can make single hair follicles produce multiple hairs again. The user is curious if these medications can thicken hair and prolong the growth phase.
community Confused why people are calling PP405 a cure...it never claimed to be able to undo miniaturization or revert vellus back to terminal hairs. It seems to be more of a growth stimulant like minoxidil.
PP405 is not a cure for hair loss but may reactivate dormant hair follicles, similar to minoxidil. It is unlikely to help with miniaturized or vellus hairs and is still in trial phases, with availability expected around 2030.
community Why don't Minoxidil regenerated hairs become terminal on the head?
Minoxidil helps hair growth by increasing blood flow and prolonging the growth phase, but it doesn't address the root cause of hair loss, such as DHT sensitivity. Finasteride can help maintain some gains by blocking DHT, but stopping Minoxidil often leads to hair loss because the new hairs are dependent on it.
community Can someone explain the science behind why Finasteride doesn't stop you from losing regrown hairs from minoxidil?
Finasteride prevents further hair loss by blocking DHT, while minoxidil stimulates hair growth by prolonging the active phase of hair follicles. Stopping minoxidil can lead to loss of regrown hair because finasteride does not address the same growth mechanism.
