5 / 815 resultscommunity if hair follicle miniaturization happens slowly and gradually over a few hair cycles then wouldn't that mean that to regain maximum or top thickness from treatment you would at least need 5-10 years?
Hair regrowth from treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil can take several years, with most visible results appearing within 1-2 years and potential improvements continuing up to 10 years. Consistency and patience are crucial for achieving maximum hair thickness, as hair miniaturization and regrowth are gradual processes.
community "Hair Follicle Stem Cells are quiescent 99% of the time and permanently reside in the hair follicle"
Hair follicles are mostly dormant but can be reactivated with treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and microneedling. A new drug, PP405, shows promise for hair regrowth but may not be available until 2027-2028.
community Will PP405 need to be used indefinitely, like minoxidil?
PP405 may not need daily use like minoxidil, but finasteride might still be needed to maintain hair regrowth. PP405 reawakens dormant hair follicles, potentially offering a long-term solution, though not a permanent cure.

community why are beard gains on min usually permanent?
Beard gains from minoxidil are usually permanent due to facial hair follicles' lower sensitivity to DHT. Scalp hair requires ongoing DHT suppression with treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, and RU58841 to maintain gains after stopping minoxidil.
