Did you mean Follicular Delivery?

GlossaryFollicular Delivery

method of delivering treatments directly to hair follicles

Follicular delivery refers to the method of delivering active ingredients, such as medications or nutrients, directly to the hair follicles. This targeted approach can enhance the effectiveness of treatments for conditions like alopecia by ensuring that the therapeutic agents reach the root of the hair, where they can stimulate growth or repair damage more efficiently.

community Targeted Follicular Finasteride Delivery: A Low-Systemic Strategy

in Research/Science 14 upvotes 3 months ago

A peptide-based delivery system for finasteride shows promise in reducing systemic side effects while maintaining hair growth effectiveness. Combining this with other treatments like minoxidil and RU58841 could enhance results with lower systemic absorption.

The efficacy of degrading the androgen receptor through dermal application in DP cells, a delivery system for topical drugs that involves dissolving microneedles, and rosemary oil as an alternative anti-androgen.

community Minoxidil Response Bottlenecks: Why Sulfation and Transport Matter (And Where Tretinoin Fits In)

in Research 461 upvotes 1 year ago

Minoxidil's effectiveness is limited by the need for sulfation and proper transport to hair follicles, with tretinoin potentially enhancing its effects by promoting enzyme activity and keratinocyte differentiation. Tretinoin may improve minoxidil's response by boosting the expression of necessary enzymes and transporters.

community So we have 20k dollars human like machines available but no new effective treatment for hairloss since finasteride :)
