    injuries penetrate through all skin layers, reaching deeper tissues

    Full-Thickness Skin Wounds are injuries that extend through both the epidermis and dermis layers of the skin, reaching into the subcutaneous tissue or even deeper structures like muscle and bone. These wounds often require more complex medical interventions, such as surgical repair or skin grafting, due to the extensive tissue damage and potential for significant scarring.

      community Verteporfin and Microneedling

      in Treatments 1 year ago
      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.
