Half follicular grafts are not effective for hair transplants.
research THE BIRTH OF TRANSPLANTATION IMMUNOLOGY: THE BILLINGHAM—MEDAWAR EXPERIMENTS AT BIRMINGHAM UNIVERSITY AND UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON
Billingham and Medawar's work laid the foundation for modern transplantation by showing how to prevent graft rejection.
research The Effect of Platelet Rich Plasma on The Survival of Follicles in Hair Transplantation: An Experimental Study on Rats
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) may improve hair transplant success by increasing blood vessel and hair follicle growth.

Hair follicle transplantation speeds up wound healing in diabetic mice.
research Histocompatibility and Long-Term Results of the Follicular Unit-Like Wigs after Xenogeneic Hair Transplantation: An Experimental Study in Rabbits
The wigs made from human hair and polypropylene were mostly well-tolerated and durable in rabbits, suggesting they could be a new option for people with extensive hair loss.

5 / 153 resultscommunity A Short Recap on PP405 and AAD 2026
PP405 is a promising experimental topical treatment for alopecia that reactivates dormant hair follicles by targeting cellular energy, with large-scale trials planned for 2026. While it shows potential, it cannot regenerate permanently destroyed follicles, making hair transplants the only guaranteed solution for advanced baldness currently.
community Debunking Androgenetic Theory (Hair Transplants)
The post discusses a theory that hair regrowth after transplant is due to the angiogenesis process (new blood vessels forming), not because the transplanted hair is unaffected by DHT. The responses highlight the established belief in 'donor dominance' (the importance of the hair's origin in transplantation) and skepticism about the new theory.
community A Theory on Why Microneedling Works
Microneedling may enhance hair regrowth by transferring stem cells to dormant follicles, improving the effects of minoxidil. Users discuss using microneedling with needle lengths around 1.5mm to stimulate hair growth.
community How is verteporfin doing in trials?
The conversation is about the progress of verteporfin in hair loss trials, with users expressing curiosity about its effectiveness and updates. Specific treatments mentioned include FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) combined with verteporfin, with one reported case of donor area regrowth after a year, and three patients being monitored post-treatment by Dr. Bloxham with monthly updates on YouTube.
community Scalp tension and thickness of the galea aponeurotica, inflammation and potential treatment pathways
Scalp tension potentially affecting hair loss, and potential treatments for male pattern baldness such as Minoxidil, Finasteride and RU58841. Evidence from a study was discussed which suggests that the cause of MPB lies within the follicle itself and is not dependent on its surrounding environment.
