research Letter: Re: Hair Transplantation for Reconstruction of Scalp Defects Using Artificial Dermis
The author believes artificial dermis might not be the best first option for hair transplant surgeons when other surgical choices exist for scalp reconstruction.
research Hair follicle transplantation: implications for cell migration and wound healing
Hair follicle transplantation can improve wound healing and nerve growth.
research Transplantation of bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal and epidermal stem cells contribute to wound healing with different regenerative features
Bone-marrow and epidermal stem cells help heal wounds differently, with bone-marrow cells aiding in blood vessel formation and epidermal cells in hair growth.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Our Follicles, who art in hairven, hallowed be thy name; thy hairdom come; thy will be done; on earth as it is in hairven. Give us this day our daily regrowth. And forgive us our hat usage, as we forgive those who own hair against us. And lead us not into transplantation; but deliver us from balding
A 21-year-old with accelerated hair loss due to stress and weight loss is using minoxidil, finasteride, and microneedling to combat balding, despite experiencing a significant initial hair shed. They are committed to continuing treatment for at least three months and are considering switching to topical finasteride if necessary.
community Seems like hair cloning has existed for a while
Hair cloning claims by Dr. Gho are widely considered a scam, with skepticism about the effectiveness of his hair stem cell transplantation. Users suggest that if it were effective, wealthy individuals would opt for it over traditional methods like FUE transplants.
community Verteporfin and Microneedling
Clinical studies by Dr. Barghouthi and Dr. Bloxham indicate that Verteporfin, when used with FUE and FUT hair transplantation methods, shows promise in hair follicle regeneration and minimal scarring due to its ability to inhibit Yes-associated protein (YAP). Microneedling at depths of 3-3.5mm, combined with Verteporfin, could potentially reactivate dormant follicles, although the optimal dosage and application method are still under investigation. Concerns remain about the DHT sensitivity of regenerated follicles, highlighting the need for further research to optimize trauma levels and Verteporfin concentrations to achieve effective and scar-free hair regeneration.
community Debunking Androgenetic Theory (Hair Transplants)
The post discusses a theory that hair regrowth after transplant is due to the angiogenesis process (new blood vessels forming), not because the transplanted hair is unaffected by DHT. The responses highlight the established belief in 'donor dominance' (the importance of the hair's origin in transplantation) and skepticism about the new theory.
community Why doctors are contradictory when it comes to Androgenetic alopecia?
The conversation discusses androgenetic alopecia (AGA) and questions why treatments focus on lowering DHT levels instead of building resistance to it. It also touches on hair transplantation techniques using body hair.
