Specifically designed to have a better safety profile. Lots of people have been holding off from off-label oral minoxidil use for hair loss due to cardiac safety concerns, this is a reassuring update. I also think the BP lowering effects of being able to take higher doses with less peaks could be a life extension intervention on its own. https://nitter.net/hairypapasmurf/status/20487268969138426…

Rapamycin for Hair Growth and Hair Pigmentation. A topic started by RapAdmin – December 2021 Here we are 4 ½ years later and 605 posts/replies.

My youthful passion – long before longevity became my new hobby.…

Repost of a review which was taken down on reddit (not my review) My honest review of Folligenz 10% Liposomal Minoxidil Sulfate I bought a few bottles of the 10% and kind of regret it. I’m not sure if they fixed the bottles so I may be giving outdated information but it’s basically unusable and there are tons of crystals in the solution which they claim is not the minoxidil itself but rather the…

I have been experimenting with using a topical rapamycin to see if I can’t counteract some of my androgenic alopecia and thought maybe it would be good to talk a little more about what the regimen should be. The study that makes this sound like maybe it’s worth trying is this one: Promotion of Hair Regrowth by Transdermal Dissolvable Microneedles Loaded with Rapamycin and Epigallocatechin Gall…

I saw the study about hair regrowth from a topical rapamycin shampoo, but I’m a bit skeptical of these findings. The molecular weight of rapamycin is 914. At that weight, none of it will be absorbed topically. The hair follicles are 4-7mm below the scalp. If the rapamycin is not small enough to be absorbed, what is the hypothesis for how it can work on the follicle? This same thing is an issue f…
