December 2025 in “Mendeley Data”

Botulinum toxin injections do not improve hair transplant results.

research The Impact of Botulinum Toxin on Hair Transplantation Outcomes: A Split-scalp Randomized Controlled Trial

November 2025 in “Mendeley Data”

Botulinum toxin may improve hair transplant results by enhancing graft survival and hair density.

research PDO-Based Thread-Embedding Therapy for Hair Loss Management : Mechanistic Hypotheses

community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied

in Research 830 upvotes 2 years ago

Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.

community New Research- Creatine Increasing Scalp DHT Without Corresponding Serum DHT Increase

in Research/Science 122 upvotes 2 years ago

Creatine may increase scalp DHT without affecting serum DHT, potentially speeding up male pattern baldness (MPB) for those genetically prone. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

community Polydopamine Synergizes with Quercetin Nanosystem to Reshape the Perifollicular Microenvironment for Accelerating Hair Regrowth in Androgenetic Alopecia.

in Research/Science 12 upvotes 2 years ago

A quercetin-encapsulated and polydopamine-integrated nanosystem (PDA@QLipo) shows promise for treating androgenetic alopecia by reshaping the perifollicular microenvironment, outperforming minoxidil in hair regeneration. The nanosystem promotes cell proliferation, hair follicle renewal, and recovery by scavenging reactive oxygen species and enhancing neovascularity.

community The Real Reason For Hair Loss?

in Research/Science 7 months ago

Hair loss is linked to scalp fibrosis and tension, which result from chronic mechanical stress and androgenic signaling. Treatments include blocking androgens with finasteride, promoting hair growth with topical minoxidil, and improving scalp mobility through exercises.

community 2000 beard graft extracted with no visible scar

in Progress Pictures 210 upvotes 1 year ago

A user shared their experience with a beard-to-scalp hair transplant, noting no visible scars and improved hair density using finasteride and minoxidil. The conversation discusses the differences between beard and scalp hair, potential changes in hair texture, and the use of beard hair for increased scalp coverage.
