5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Just got a dermastamp, and it is FAR superior to a roller. I’ll never go back.
A user switched from a 1.5 mm derma roller to an adjustable dermastamp for microneedling to treat hair loss and found it less painful and more effective. Some users prefer different depths and tools like the Dr.Pen for microneedling, while others debate the necessity of depth and tool type.
community How true is the statement: dead follicles don't grow back?
Hair follicles usually go dormant rather than die, and treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and hormone therapy can sometimes reactivate them, though results vary. Complete regrowth is rare, especially in long-term bald areas, but some individuals see significant improvement with these treatments.
community Hair loss research focused on chemistry for decades because we misunderstood the mechanics of growth.
Hair growth relies on mechanical forces, not just chemicals, with tissue acting like a motor. Minoxidil and finasteride help, but maintaining tissue elasticity and addressing mechanical issues are essential.
community First microscopic results after 5 weeks
The user shared progress pictures after 5 weeks of using 5% topical minoxidil, scalp massages, and microneedling for hair loss. They are considering adding finasteride but have decided to wait a few more weeks.
community Hair disappearing after one week (microscope photos)
A user is concerned about hair loss despite using finasteride and minoxidil, noting changes in hair under a microscope after one week. Others suggest patience, as hair treatments take months to show results, and recommend focusing less on microscopic changes.
