    GlossarySkin Thickness

    measurement of skin depth, varying across body regions

    Skin thickness refers to the measurement of the depth of the skin, which varies across different parts of the body. It consists of two main layers: the epidermis (outer layer) and the dermis (inner layer). For example, the skin on the soles of the feet is much thicker than the skin on the eyelids. Understanding skin thickness is important for medical professionals when diagnosing conditions, planning surgeries, or administering treatments like injections.

      The user underwent a biopsy two years ago and was diagnosed with keratosis pilaris, leading to hair issues. They tried treatments including Minoxidil, betamethasone, lymecycline, topical Accutane, and dutasteride, as well as diet changes, without improvement in hair thickness or skin dryness.

      Dutasteride may reduce scalp oil and itchiness more effectively than finasteride, with some users experiencing drier skin and improved hair thickness. Users report varying results, with some noticing benefits after switching from finasteride to dutasteride, while others use a combination of treatments including minoxidil.
