5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Pathogenetic Rationale for the Use of Exosomes Derived from Salmon Tissue in Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia: A Prospective Uncontrolled Observational Study
A study involving 20 patients with androgenetic alopecia evaluated the efficacy of salmon-derived exosomes combined with microneedling. Over 12 weeks, significant improvements were observed: hair density increased by 44.4 hairs/cm², the proportion of vellus hairs decreased, hair shaft diameter increased by 22.4 µm, and the proportion of anagen hairs rose by 36.4%. Histological analysis showed increased follicular density and normalization of the terminal/vellus ratio, while immunohistochemistry indicated enhanced cellular proliferation and angiogenesis. No serious adverse events were reported. The treatment effectively restored hair follicle function and reversed miniaturization, suggesting salmon-derived exosomes as a promising regenerative strategy for androgenetic alopecia.
research Effects of platelet-rich plasma application on hair follicle count, telogen/anagen ratio, and miniaturized hair ratio in patients with androgenic alopecia: alone or in combination with other treatments
PRP improves hair growth in androgenic alopecia, especially when combined with minoxidil.
research Avaliação quantitativa em cortes histológicos transversais do couro cabeludo
The study found average numbers for different types of hair follicles in the scalp and observed differences between men and women, suggesting reasons for more common hair shedding in women.

5 / 752 resultscommunity Confused why people are calling PP405 a cure...it never claimed to be able to undo miniaturization or revert vellus back to terminal hairs. It seems to be more of a growth stimulant like minoxidil.
PP405 is not a cure for hair loss but may reactivate dormant hair follicles, similar to minoxidil. It is unlikely to help with miniaturized or vellus hairs and is still in trial phases, with availability expected around 2030.
community Most Recent Interesting Hairloss Studies: 10% Minox vs 5% Minox / Radio Rrequency Treatment for AA / Topical Ketoconazole / PRP+Minox vs Minox vs PRP / Alopecia as a systemic disease
Treatments for hair loss, such as topical minoxidil, platelet-rich plasma therapy with or without minoxidil, ketoconazole, non-abative radio frequency, natural products, finasteride and cortexolone 17 alpha propionate. The post evaluates the efficacy and safety of these treatments in various studies.
community BREAKTHROUGH: I’m a radiochemist and discovered a radioactive isotope scalp serum that OUTPERFORMS Minoxidil and 5-AR inhibitors! (Lab Data Inside)
A satirical post where someone claims to have developed a radioactive isotope scalp serum using Polonium-210 that outperforms Minoxidil and finasteride for hair regrowth. The serum reportedly stimulates DNA repair in hair follicles, leading to significant hair density increase, but the post is met with skepticism and concerns about safety.
community How do you distinguish miniaturised hairs from velus hairs regrowing from dormant follicles around temples?
The conversation discusses difficulty in distinguishing between new hair growth and thinning hair at the temples after using microneedling and a rosemary peppermint topical for four weeks. The advice given is to wait a few months to see if the hairs grow out to determine their nature.
community Oral fin and topical min 6 months update… what NW am I now?
User shared 6-month progress of hairline recovery using oral finasteride and topical minoxidil, asking for current Norwood scale rating. Responses praised impressive results, with estimates ranging from Norwood 1.5 to 3.
