well now, if we knew that, there would be a cure to hair loss.

Not necessarily

People are regrowing hair with only needling and minoxidil


Anyway, back to needling - Has anyone considered mango butter?? It has all the benefits of shea,cocoa and coconut oils but without the greasy uncomfortable feel and the oil staying on your skin for hours doing nothing.

It could be an incredible way to heal the scalp after needling

So here's what I am doing :

Dermastamping (not rolling or pens)
Mango butter to heal scalp
Rosemany alcohol tincture for mild stimulation

Regrowing? Not me. Maintaining, yes. Thickening, questionable. Regrowing... NO.

Needling once a week, minoxidil every day with that crap booster from Daniel Alain.

I'm doing an experiment with Citrulline in vodka instead of minoxidil

It seems to work on the same mechanisms and method of action and seems a little cleaner on the scalp

Also, there isn't a medication reaction in the body from it

Citrulline is an interesting one actually. Never heard of it for hair before but tried an energy drink shot of it and could feel my face tingling. If it could do that for the scalp that would be interesting.

taurine also vasodilates



Taurine in vodka as a topical liquid could work too

Back for the first time in years.

Let microneedling regimine fall by the wayside the last 3 years. Unfortunately. Likely lost most of my gains.

But back again because this treatment has always worked for me. Gonna change up regimine this time given that new study that released and the revised efficacy of needle puncture lengths.

Have taken my before photos, in for the long haul again, will post progress pictures when progress arrives.

I'll include my previous before and afters from 3-4 years back, for reference.

Good luck because you seems a good candidate to regrowth.

Can you expand on the bold at all?

I read a study a while ago that said 0.6mm was most effective, yet most stuff I read online is using 1.5mm depth. I have wondered if deeper= more trauma and damage to follicles and this would appear to suggest so.


Do you mean the Follica research?

IMO that procedure was usually misunderstood on the hair forums. Calling that procedure "dermarolling" is misleading. They used a dermaroller type of tool and destroyed the top layer of skin. The needle length was shallow but the density of the holes was enormous. The skin wouldn't have any un-poked smooth area left after that. It would be less like poking holes, and more like doing an abrasion wound.

I don't remember tbh. It's difficult to find any consensus on depth duration and frequency for it.
