A user reported noticeable hair regrowth using a 272 diode red light therapy hat over 11 months without Minoxidil or Finasteride. Opinions vary on its effectiveness compared to traditional treatments, with some suggesting combining therapies for better results.
The conversation discusses using GFM Gel, a topical gel with polypeptides that mimic growth factors to promote hair regrowth and strengthen hair. It also mentions treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841 for hair loss.
The conversation discusses how the absorption rate of topical finasteride varies and is not equivalent to its oral form, with only a small percentage reaching the scalp. It also mentions that minoxidil in highconcentrations is used topically because only a small amount is absorbed.
The conversation discusses concerns about using a highconcentration of 1% topical finasteride for hairline balding, with some users suggesting starting with a lower dose. It also mentions the use of GHK-CU peptide and the importance of considering the formulation to avoid excessive absorption.
User asks about two topical dutasteride solutions and wonders if 1% concentration is overkill compared to 0.1%. They also consider trying standard topical dutasteride before using Minoxidil.
