research Guidelines on Hair Restoration for East Asian Patients
Hair restoration for East Asians should consider their unique characteristics like head shape, hair thickness, and hair density, and use modified procedures and treatments to minimize scarring and maintain hair density.
research Hair Growth Promoting Effect of White Wax and Policosanol from White Wax on the Mouse Model of Testosterone-Induced Hair Loss
White wax and policosanol from white wax effectively reduced hair loss and promoted hair growth in mice better than a known hair growth drug.
research Forthcoming Issues
White wax and its policosanol boost hair growth better than finasteride.

5 / 298 resultscommunity Minoxidil hairs not growing to full length
New hair growth from minoxidil and finasteride is not reaching full length, possibly due to slow growth cycles. Users discuss dosing strategies for oral minoxidil to improve efficacy and minimize side effects, with advice against consuming topical minoxidil orally.
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 New vellus all over — just 9 days into once-daily 5% minoxidil.
The user has been using 1 mg finasteride for three months and recently started using 5% minoxidil once daily, resulting in new vellus hair growth. The user is hopeful that minoxidil will positively impact terminal hairs and is considering adding a derma stamp to the routine.
community Highly recommend buying a microscope (see pictures)
A user recommends using a microscope to assess hair density and track hair loss progress, finding it useful for evaluating treatment effectiveness, particularly with dutasteride and minoxidil. They advise against obsessing over hair loss and emphasize focusing on other meaningful life aspects.
community People who don’t microneedle, why?
Microneedling is often combined with minoxidil for hair growth, but concerns about scalp damage, pain, and effectiveness deter some users. Alternatives like finasteride, dutasteride, tretinoin, and laser treatments are preferred by others.
