research Monitoring Response to Platelet-Rich Plasma in Patients with Alopecia Areata with Optical Coherence Tomography: A Case Series
Platelet-Rich Plasma treatment improved hair growth and reduced inflammation in patients with patchy hair loss, but not in total hair loss, and Optical Coherence Tomography was useful in tracking this progress.
research Optical Characteristics of LEDs for Scalp Care with Effects of M. sympodialis Inhibition and HFDPC Activation
LED light at specific wavelengths can help fight dandruff and promote hair growth without increasing inflammation.
research Confocal microscopy and optical coherence tomography of inflammatory skin diseases in hairs and pilosebaceous units: A systematic review
RCM and OCT are effective for diagnosing and monitoring hair-related skin diseases but lack standardized protocols and need more research.
research Optimal laboratory testing protocol for patients with acne taking oral isotretinoin
Test liver enzymes and triglycerides every 5-6 months, and cholesterol levels in the first two months for acne patients on isotretinoin.
research OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY AS AN ADVANCED TOOL IN DIFFERENT APPLICATIONS
Optical Coherence Tomography has potential in diagnosing hair loss and monitoring blood clotting, and could be improved for deeper tissue observation and better hair loss understanding.

5 / 418 resultscommunity Anyone here have experience with ferritin level and hair?
Low ferritin levels can affect hair density, and increasing ferritin through iron supplements may help with regrowth. It's suggested to maintain ferritin levels between 70-100 ng/mL and check other micronutrients for optimal hair health.
community Vitamin D slight temple regrowth
Vitamin D supplementation may have led to slight hair regrowth and density improvement. Other treatments discussed include finasteride, minoxidil, and maintaining optimal vitamin D levels.
community Dutasteride likely reduces Bone Mineral Density
Dutasteride may reduce bone mineral density, but there's no increased risk of osteoporosis or fractures compared to finasteride. Users suggest resistance training to counter potential bone effects.
community So whats the consensus for Microneedling Routines?
Optimal microneedling routine is 1.25mm once a week with Dr Pen 36 needles. Applying Minoxidil right after microneedling may increase systemic absorption risk.
community Pp405 - lowkey kinda bad results
PP405 increased hair density by 20% in 31% of participants, but results are considered underwhelming. Minoxidil and finasteride are seen as more effective treatments.
