GlossaryPlatelet-Derived Growth Factor AA

stimulates cell growth and tissue repair, including hair follicles

Platelet-Derived Growth Factor AA (PDGF-AA) is a protein that plays a crucial role in cell growth, healing, and development. It is one of the isoforms of PDGF, which are important for stimulating the proliferation and differentiation of cells, particularly in the context of wound healing and tissue repair. In the realm of hair biology, PDGF-AA can influence hair follicle development and regeneration, making it a potential target for treatments related to hair loss and alopecia.

community Comprehensive Microneedling Guide

in Microneedling 290 upvotes 3 years ago

Microneedling for hair restoration involves daily use of a 0.3 mm device and weekly use of a 0.5 mm device. Combining microneedling with Minoxidil can enhance hair growth.

community A Theory on Why Microneedling Works

172 upvotes 6 years ago

Microneedling may enhance hair regrowth by transferring stem cells to dormant follicles, improving the effects of minoxidil. Users discuss using microneedling with needle lengths around 1.5mm to stimulate hair growth.

community My derm said they came up with a new serum that is better then fin? What’s y’all’s thoughts

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 6 months ago

A new serum claims to enhance hair regrowth by amplifying oxygen delivery, improving the effectiveness of treatments like exosomes and peptides. Users are skeptical, questioning its efficacy compared to established treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride.

Hair loss treatments discussed include Dutasteride with Ketoconazole, tissue engineering strategies, and androgenetic alopecia therapies. Massage doubles follicular retention, improving treatment effectiveness.

community Do you keep gains if you stop microneedling?

in Microneedling 15 upvotes 11 months ago

Stopping microneedling may result in losing hair gains, as it enhances the effectiveness of treatments like minoxidil. Combining microneedling with minoxidil and finasteride is more effective than using microneedling alone.
