Do you think we need to use more than 1 ml of minoxidil? How much do you think is a good dose?

I‘ve read that applying minoxidil right after microneedling is counterproductive because it inhibits the collagen production. Maybe this is the reason.

One of the best responders applied minoxidil and then needled, so that's probably just BS.

We know that the combination of needling and minoxidil definitely works for some. There's nothing to say those who noted results by needling and waiting to apply minoxidil wouldn't have had better results by applying minoxidil immediately before or after needling. People are just exercising caution for fear of the min going systemic, which is fair enough.
My bad. I edited my post to ask how long one should wait after having a hair transplant before starting microneedling.

He has posted a new video just recently on YouTube. Just take a look and form your own opinion about his results:
Microneedling helps, but his hair is still overall weak. Unless he somehow mitigates the androgens in his system this is what his peak is. Interesting thing is their are strategies beyond the typical chemically shutting off androgens male/female employ.
So overall his hair is very weak even in traditionally vibrant areas.. so a little growth blends in. I have super thick hair in traditional areas & I need that to translate to the thinning, receded areas.

I tried minoxidil once right after micro needling. My body went into shock lol. Heart palpitations, chills, shaking, you name it. felt like that for hours. from now on i wait 24 hours after to apply minoxidil. in my case, i absorbed too much of it.

Most people had a good result are using a dermaroller, I think it works better than dermapen, what if someone neddled the whole scalp like this guy all his hair is weak

man i've been bboying for 10 years and spent litteraly hours doing handstand and headstand and it didn't do sh*t for my hairloss
I highly doubt it would be a cure to hairloss, but it obviously can be a useful part of a hairloss regimen by increasing blood flow to the hair follicles.
Still need to deal with the other 8 or so factors that contribute to hairloss.
Hi!
I am a Norwood 6 just starting microneedling and minoxidil. Being so bald that I am I don't think it will do mutch for me but I figured that it won't hurt trying.
It hurts like hell when I try to go 1,5 mm so I usually go down to 1,0 mm. The scalp bleeds during microneedling and after a couple of days I peel like crazy.
I have two questions:
1. Do you think 1,0 mm is enough?
2. Is it normal to peel so mutch? Does it get better after a couple of times?

I apply a combo of lidocaine and tetracaine to the scalp before microneedling. No pain whatsoever.
