The conversation discusses the tension theory of baldness, suggesting that over-developed masseter muscles may harm hair follicles. Botox injections to relax these muscles reportedly led to an 18% increase in hair count in men with AGA.
community Occipitalis Muscle Tension Theory
Scalp tension from the occipitalis muscle is theorized to contribute to hair loss, but most believe DHT and genetics are the main causes. Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are considered more effective than addressing scalp tension.
