Very Impressive Dermarolling And Minxodil Results - From Tressless

Nice !
when you pass your finger throught your temple, did your hair feel spiky ?

Thanks.

Yes, it does, as I can see and feel the better difference in density from just a couple months ago, I decided to microneedle my bald/receded temple since it’s easier to see and note progress and it’s cool to see good progress and be able to feel the spiky new hairs there as well as in my crown and elsewhere.

I think i've heard a couple of people claiming that their eyes got some sh*t on it doing this, as well as inflammed lymph nodes. Why the f*** are those people continuing? dermarolling is clearly not for them.

Well I got diagnosed with shingles. The doctor didn't seem to think there was a link between microneedling but he said he'd never even heard of microneedling either. I'm not doing it again because I can't deal with this a second time.

Im doing it mildly but im starting off with a pretty inflamed scalp that is sore to touch, so even doing it lightly pisses it off. Am on finasteride, topical cetrizine, and various anti inflammatory supplements, and nothing has gotten rid of my scalp itch and soreness. It f*****g sucks.

Use zix. Cured my itch after trying a million things.

Not sure if I’m allowed to post a link to Reddit on here but I suggest those looking for a solid before and after photo results like Jamesdunn posts to go over to the Tressless thread on Reddit and check out the amazing results a dude that goes by ‘skupelshanks’ posted of his microneedling + minoxidil + finasteride progress earlier today.

Are you supposed to do this so as to cause mild redness/soreness, or actually draw blood? What did the studies do? Thanks.

To those that are needling every day is your scalp permanently sore? I've just started lightly needling every day and damn it is sore. Think my scalp needs a 2 day break to calm down.

I needle my right temples mildly, and while it doesnt look sore the next day, it definetely FEELS sore when i move it around.
Hence i mild needle every 2 days instead

I posted here that I was starting microneedling without Min: https://www.hairlosstalk.com/intera...s-from-tressless.117746/page-505#post-1810264

Not a big update, I still shed like a lot. Its only 2 months so its expected but I've been shedding since the start of the year but my hair looks good still? Like the hairline seems thicker now. z

Going to add min next month, I decided. I should have gone all nuke with my hairloss since the start probably. But I wanted to know what each thing did.

@GrowPro how long do you use the peppermint ?

Been using the peppermint oil mixed with coconut oil after my sessions for over a month now, to aide in better scalp circulation and healing, seems to be helping.

i'm trying right now my own mixture fo about a week and half:
- peppermint essential oil
- Rosemary essential oil (normally it's close to peppermint in term of cirulation effect on the scalps + it smells good)
- sesame oil
- Aloe Vera

i'm using that on daily basis + massage. + microneedling twice week.

and do you think it's better to add coconut oil ? is it a better carrier ? for info i have an oily scalps.

That is impressive if true
But its undeniable that somehow works
(Even fina doesn't work for everyone )

This looks like a good mixture and routine you have here, I may add rosemary myself as I’ve read it also helps.

I’m not sure about the sesame oil and aloe Vera as good penetrating carriers for the essential oils compared to say coconut but that’s not to say they may not help, I’m just not too familiar using sesame and only familiar with aloe to heal sunburns and skin redness and I’m not fond of using it on my scalp as I think it may clog pores and follicles but not completely sure.

Since you say your scalp is naturally oily it might not help using coconut oil as a carrier but give it a try I say, if it’s too oily then quit using it.

Yep, this is the poster on Reddit I was referring too. Crazy good results!

^Excellent results. Hmm can finasteride really rebuild a hairline like that? I'm going with the minoxidil/rolling that did it

There are hairline responders to finasteride and minoxidil. They are a minority compared to vertex/crown responders, but they are there.
Again, let's not draw bold conclusions on people that are nuking baldness with every strong proven treatment there is and then claim it's because of needling.

I think “synergy” is a good way to describe his methods success.

yeah try to add rosemary,

but which is the best carrier for an oily scalps ? do you have any idea ?

 

[Moosey]

Still shedding like crazy coming up 4 weeks now after starting minoxidil/rolling about 8 weeks ago. So demoralizing looking at my comb seeing so much hair. Not throwing in the towel yet. Maybe need to roll harder & more frequently (currently once a week)

"4 weeks"
Oh man, you are up for a ride if you are already losing your mind after 4 weeks.
My shedding didnt slow down before 7 months
