Not necessarily the follica protocol, but just thought I’d share this. This guy got some insane results in 9 months on Min/finasteride while dermarolling 1mm everyday (applying min right after) and doing 1.5mm once a week...

Any particular reason for separate bottles? I only apply Min 1x a day.

How much finasteride would you add to a 60ml bottle of Min? I’ve got 5mg tablets that I cut into 1.25 and take daily, but I’ve considered adding a bit topically to attack from both angles.

Dead thread.

cant forget about the Italian hair loss lotion (Brotzu) everyone expected to release and cure hair loss in 2015. That thread reached 1000+ pages until it fell through in 2019 when Trinov was a bust.

Months later and only discussion of topicals and nobody sharing (at least anecdotal) results... I think this one is a bust. I’m not sure if it’s because our pens aren’t comparable to the follicas device, or they just used the best results from the best responder; but I sure as hell haven’t seen...

So... it’s been a couple months; how’s everyone looking so far? Seen any results or improvement? New hairs? Anything? My vellus hairs have started to thicken and grow long in the front, temples not so much. Also slacked a bit on my Min applications, but don’t seem to have lost any ground.

The first time I did it I got really bad dandruff/skin flaking, but I’ve gotten a better shampoo for that so it’s not so bad anymore. I’m noticing I shed a bit more often, but I’ve also noticed quite a few vellus hairs which have made my hairline look better; though a lot of the stronger hairs...

You actually expected results in a GourmetStyleWellness thread?

The regimen on my page is outdated, I’m on 1mg finasteride a day and 5% min 1x a day. I have also started taking NAC and I suspect that has been helping as well. Occasionally use The Ordinary hair density serum too.

I too am going three weeks this time, was really busy last weekend so I couldn’t get it done. Have you seen any improvement so far? I know it’s been short term and perhaps placebo but I’ve noticed my hairline seems to be improving, and my temples aren’t quite as receded; I’m still a diffuse...

Well it’s been about a year, OP. Care to share any results or are you going to leave this as another dead thread? So much for weekly updates.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve microneedled at depths of 1.5-2.0mm and never had skin peel at this level before. Are you following the protocol or are you just stating that skin peels? This is new to me and I’ve never heard of it before, so it’s not exactly “normal” to me.

Glad I’m not alone. It was probably the most dandruff I’ve ever had in my life. Have you noticed any new hairs or anything?

As I commented before, the day after my second session my whole scalp was covered in dead skin. I’m not sure if it was a slight infection, or my body healing from all the microwounding; but it was really bad flakes for a couple days; even formed a scab on the side of my head. I finally got some...
