Research
5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Expression of matrix metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases in the hair cycle
MMP-2 and MMP-9 help hair grow, while their inhibitors peak when hair growth slows.
research Successive Release of Tissue Inhibitors of Metalloproteinase-1 Through Graphene Oxide-Based Delivery System Can Promote Skin Regeneration
Graphene oxide helps deliver a skin healing agent over time, improving skin and hair follicle regeneration.
research Pan-tissue scaling of stiffness versus fibrillar collagen reflects contractility-driven strain that inhibits fibril degradation
Tissue stiffness is influenced by contractility, which suppresses collagen breakdown.
research Hyaluronate Fragments Reverse Skin Atrophy by a CD44-Dependent Mechanism
Hyaluronate fragments can help reverse skin thinning by working with the CD44 receptor.
research Antioxidant Capacity and Protective Effect of Cow Placenta Extract on D-Galactose-Induced Skin Aging in Mice

Microneedling for hair restoration involves daily use of a 0.3 mm device and weekly use of a 0.5 mm device. Combining microneedling with Minoxidil can enhance hair growth.
community Finasteride update/information on Penis/Penile Tissue
Finasteride can reduce DHT in the genitalia, potentially causing side effects like reduced erections and penile fibrosis. Using PDE5 inhibitors like Tadalafil or Sildenafil may help maintain penile health and prevent fibrosis.
community A systematic bro-science review of DHT, 5AR, neurosteroids, sexual health and 5AR inhibitors
Hair loss treatments, specifically 5AR inhibitors, can impact neurosteroids and sexual health. The effects of topical fin/dut on tissue-specific DHT levels are unclear.
community Verteporfin day 119 update - donor hair regeneration human trial
A human trial of verteporfin, a drug that can inhibit wound healing by scarring and promote regeneration of original tissue and hair follicles to provide an unlimited source for hair transplants; people discussed the potential of this drug and how it could be rolled out in mainstream with more doctors getting on board.
community Minoxidil inhibits lysyl hydroxylase which is needed to produce collagen. If I take 2,5...5 mg of minoxidil every day can I cause my skin to age prematurely?
Oral minoxidil is effective for hair loss and unlikely to significantly affect collagen synthesis, making it a safe option without causing premature skin aging. Users report positive hair regrowth without noticeable skin aging.
