Monitoring Response to Platelet-Rich Plasma in Patients with Alopecia Areata Using Optical Coherence Tomography: A Case Series

research Monitoring Response to Platelet-Rich Plasma in Patients with Alopecia Areata with Optical Coherence Tomography: A Case Series

1 citations , October 2020 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings”

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.

Confocal Microscopy and Optical Coherence Tomography of Inflammatory Skin Diseases in Hairs and Pilosebaceous Units: A Systematic Review

research Confocal microscopy and optical coherence tomography of inflammatory skin diseases in hairs and pilosebaceous units: A systematic review

May 2023 in “Experimental Dermatology”

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

9 citations , April 2023 in “World Journal of Clinical Cases”

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

January 2019

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.

research Optical coherence tomography as a minimally invasive androgenic alopecia diagnostic platform (Conference Presentation)

March 2018

community Anyone here have experience with ferritin level and hair?

in Treatment 4 upvotes 5 months ago

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

in Is this regrowth? 109 upvotes 4 months ago

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

in Research/Science 4 months ago

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 3 months on finasteride and hair density IS decreasing

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 43 upvotes 3 months ago

Finasteride can cause initial hair shedding as part of the treatment process, which is normal and often leads to regrowth of healthier hair. Users discuss experiencing multiple shedding phases and emphasize patience, as results can take several months to become noticeable.

community So whats the consensus for Microneedling Routines?

in Microneedling 7 upvotes 2 years ago

Optimal microneedling routine is 1.25mm once a week with Dr Pen 36 needles. Applying Minoxidil right after microneedling may increase systemic absorption risk.
