Why are research not focusing on the capabilities of synthetic hair transplant? Yes I understand the body rejecting the synthetic hair as foreign particle but why not make a synthetic hair which is accepted by the body? Is there any development on this? And one more is how does body building or supplements can cause hair fall !?
@@pranav.r.k4858 there have been attempts to cure hairloss but not have stuck. Verteporfin, most recently for example, regrew follicles in mice but not yet in humans. It failed to yield anything remarkable (YET). Verteporfin studies are on-going. They are racing to find such a cure because it would probably be a trillion dollar industry if they find it.
Thanks buddy for this non responding to conventional treatment story. Please research and make videos on Botox as there are now some promising results online. I believe Botox is the holy grail for managing male baldness. Emerging evidence suggests that DHT induces post-pubertal bone growth, particularly in the parietal (sides of the skull) and frontal bones. This leads to a wider skull or tall skull syndrome with crown hair thinning and frontal bone growth contributing to hair loss in the front. These changes can put pressure on the macrovascular blood supply to the scalp, disrupting blood flow. Factors such as genetics, hormones, and stress also play a role. Botox helps by relaxing the scalp, reducing pressure, and potentially aiding in hair retention. This process is the secret behind the pattern of male baldness, as male bones are more sensitive to DHT
These photos of alopecia areata incognito look just like my scalp! FINALLY something that makes sense! THANK YOU! No dermatologist or endocrinologist ever mentioned this or was able to help me. I’m stunned right now…
I am really happy for this guy from the bottom of my heart I hope I could change my hair issue(Currently diagnosed with diffuse pattern hair loss since i am 20 years and currently 24. my regimen is dutastride every other day, minoxidil once a day and microneedling once a week) Cheers to that guy.
What a useful piece of video! I love you do not promote silly things like other videos do... i have been suffering from hairloss since i was 11... yes 11.... i have visited dermatologist 3 times over span of last 7 years.... and all of them tell me its genetics... and sell their prp or some useless suplemenets and some hair serum for a big cost.... none of these dermatlogists used microscope either... they would just recommend me some treatment and i have spent more than 4000$ in this.... the last section of the video shows me the harsh truth and now i am more than ever aware what these dermatologist want... its money.... they do not care what actually cause this stuff... I am going to go through all of your research paper and guides for hair.... there arent many dermatologist in my area and honestly i lost hope in them.... now its only me who can find about the stuff... thank you so much for publishing ur papers for free so any1 can understand their problems 1000x better than these scammy dermatologist people...
I am a female. My tests showed nothing out of the extraordinaire, save the "high" cholesterol I always had at the same level (240). The derm NEVER bothered to look at my scalp or asked me what I did for haircare and just gave me this diagnosis. It doesn't run in my family. At the time I was doing something called No Poo... this was the culprit. Basically, it is a haircare routine where you don't use sulfate shampoo. I realized this by remembering that my hair didn't fall when I used sulfate shampoo while I was dying it, which I had stopped 2 years before thinking it was the hair dye causing trouble. I went back to sulfate shampoos everyday and my hair recovered (plus hair therapist). Recently, the hair fall started again. At the time, I was researching iodine because I went carnivore. I wanted to know everything about it, including the need for supplements. I watched an interview with a doctor about it as I know I have lower iodine as I don't eat salt. I supplemented 1.5mg and the side effect was the hair fall diminished significantly. Two months later, I started primrose oil for perimenopause reasons and the side was the hair fall basically stopped.
i think i have this, my hair started shedding when i was 8, diffusely. Was labled as male pattern baldness at age 15 by a dermatologist. I got a hair transplant at age 18 and have also been on finasteride, but im still shedding. Now im 27 and im going to another derm appointment on thursday. Thank you Rob and Wish me luck.
I went to a hair health clinic for a consultation. I went in there and expected to get some kind of diagnosis. But, nope. She took a picture, showed me and told me ”you’re thinning in this area”. THAT’S WHY I WAS THERE. Obviously I knew that my hair was thinning but I wanted to know what the cause was. But she just kept telling me all about a bunch of treatments instead of actually looking at my hair. Seemed very unprofessional.
@@Rye-jl2fk she seemed like the surgeon type, not the "I know my stuff" type. Her arms were huge and she had a tan. I felt big money vibes coming off her. But not a lot of knowledge.
Ow maaaaaaannnn, I can't believe, that might be my problem too! I also 14yo started noticing hair fining... Alessandro profile is almost the same as mine... Thank you for sharing your story, I'll recheck with this in mind.
The western medical industry is shameful, they do these kind of things in all areas even ones leading to death. Thanks Rob for your passion and integrity. I had a hormone specialist run my blood work after a nasty breakup and a 2 year chronic telogen effluvium bout, I found that term and description myself with some research. She told me to stop looking things up myself. My blood work was all wacky she told me my liver could be bad and that I might have hemochromatosis! This freaked me out even more. Ultrasound was fine. Had she checked my cortisol levels (which I did myself, mail in test through an independent company) like a hormone doctor should, I would have had an acute case, instead I lost 70% of my hair in 2 years! I won’t go to doctors ever again unless it’s an emergency surgery. Never again My hair shed completely stopped and it’s growing back now, just trying to speed it up with supplements and micro needling. 3 years later all my stressors have deminished, and my nervous system is back to regulated. I spoke with one derm that told me it may not all come back and I’m simply not going to accept that. I wish we had the tools for scalp evaluations in your program so we could cut out the middle man! Alesondro and 10 years is horrible! Good thing he’s still young, those in their mid years or older don’t have that time to spare and the stress that goes along with it, no wonder he incurred an auto immune condition! This infuriated me as well. I’m so happy to see him much deservingly happy now! I would love to join your one on one! Can you offer a two portion fee of your asking price, rather than paying at once? I too fell for the expensive PRP treatments amongst many others. $$$
@@jodyv2734honestly sounds like reducing stress and psychological factors. Sometimes its exacerbated by use of stimulants. Othertimes its just the stress itself and the lifestyle that ensues.
@@stevenrapa4014 ALOT! Getting rid of all stressors after identifying them, ketogenic diet, ashwaganda, valerian, B1, and B complex, magnesium, exercise, cold showers, eliminating tv and people, sleep, once your stuck in that fight or flight, it takes work to get out of it. If you find your mind turning into a prison of doubt, fear and anxiety, you have to learn how to master it.
I always thought I had male pattern baldness (Androgenic Alopecia) since my dad, granddad and uncle all had/have it. But since mine started around age 15, and I’m 48 now and it’s only marginal loss in comparison, I’m now thinking maybe it is something else.
@@Rohit-rx5rz he talks about androgenic alopecia. His goal is to dissolve the myths and false claims of certain solutions that aim to fix the issue. Finasteride is effective with genetic hair loss. So yeah Kevin’s right
i love your videos , and they have made me learn a ton of stuff i would have ignored otherwise , i've been on fin min for couple of months now , but as you mentioned , its very difficult for me to analyze me progress , also can you please make a video on what all tests one must take to identify the type of hairloss , as there's a lot of confusion and dermats usually overlook it .
I've found that regarding hair loss, dermatologists are pathetically lazy when it comes to an evaluation... like they can't be bothered; so they just offer finasteride and send you a large bill for them doing nothing.
There are great dermatologists out there, but I tend to agree. The average hair loss patient often feels dismissed by their dermatologist, rather than empowered. I get that the inclination is to just diagnose with "AGA" and prescribe finasteride, as that tends to work for most adult cases of male hair loss. Even still, it only takes a few minutes to thoroughly examine someone's scalp, and if anyone had done that for Alessandro (and had the knowledge to run a differential diagnosis), they could've saved him 10+ years of frustration.
After $12,000 worth of my $13,000 worth of hair transplants fell out, hair on eyebrows almost completely gone, hair under arms reduced 75%, hair on arms legs etc. reduced in some case to zero, and doctors being of no help at all, I gave up.
Autoimmune disorder or problem with adrenal glands, but like the comment before me said, go with your own intuition. I solved my androgenic alopecia, DHT was 3300 Pg/ml which is an insane amount, stinging nettle root + saw palmetto and i'm sitting at 300-400 pg/ml and I've had 0 regression it's been over 3 years.
Amazing video and thank you Alessandro and Rob for sharing it with everyone. I have a question. Clobetasol is supposed to be antiflammatory via vasoconstriction and collagen production reduction. Isn't this then conflicting with minoxidil and microneedling effects? Thanks!
We have a video coming soon that touches on this topic! Basically, the debate over whether "blood flow" is/isn't involved in the balding process tends to get diluted into arguments over vasoconstriction vs. vasodilation, when in reality, the discussions need to involve the mechanisms by which blood volume changes, along with whether those medications promote angiogenesis, blood vessel fenestration, etc. in microcirculatory networks that directly support balding-prone hair follicles.
This is a great video. Makes my blood boil. Pretty sure i have same condition. A derma did tell me he did not think it was Male pattern baldness. And my ht surgeon even said i had an “unusual pattern”. Shrugged and then sent the goons to break down the costs for ht. Yet ive had massive fluctuations in hair. I need to look into this! Thank you for sharing!
This is crazy! But do you know what is even crazier? That people with actual life restricting conditions with real symptoms are experiencing the same. Suffering for decades. Not being able to live their life, because doctors are too lazy like he experienced. I dont want to put his experience down, he really shouldnt have experienced this, but just imagine how people suffer with misdiagnosed illnesses. Thanks Rob for helping him and us out.
I understand where you're coming from. Someone close to me suffers from chronic pain. For 10 years, they were told by doctors that their pain was psychosomatic. In reality, it was a spinal cyst growing & pressing against nerve pathways. For a decade, no one ever bothered to do an MRI to rule that out, which still baffles me. I also acknowledge that doctors are forced to operate in a system that doesn't really allow for personalized medicine at scale, so it's not always fair to blame them for a system's shortcomings. Having said that, people paying $500+ out-of-pocket for a private dermatologist to diagnose their hair loss - and having that dermatologist neglect to do a scalp exam - is 100% unacceptable in my eyes. There's much to improve!
I’ve been at a dermatologist hair appointment and he took a look at me for 1second and just suggested fenestride , which I already knew but I feel like just by watching your videos I “knew more than him” Meaning that also my seborrheic is a cause for my hair loss and I’ve only been on the treatment for 1 month and a bit but I’m already seeing an improvement
Hey rob, could you potentially do an in depth video of exactly how to take scalp muscles out of contraction and overall reverse aga for people who don’t use drugs. Thanks
Im on my second transplant after the first one thinned out im hoping this one works although i stopped using minoxidol i will stick to it this time i am 10 days later after second transplant glad i found this channel.
Very interesting story. Looking at his case I think I might have the same problem since I have lost a lot of density in the sides of the head which shouldn’t be the case in androgenetic alopecia. I have in the sides of the head and even behind micro zones without hair at all. I’m sure about having androgenetic alopecia since my dad and uncle have the same problem, but it might be a mixed cause along with alopecia areata incognita involved. I would love to write an email to Alessandro (i can speak italian), and ask to him some questions, so if the owner of this account has it then it would be of great help to write it here Thanks to you and to Alessandro for sharing.
Rob, I know this might sound dumb, but which of the two do you think gives the most accurate diagnosis when it comes to hair loss, dermatologists or trichologists?
Trichologists cannot legally diagnose someone, unless they're also a physician. In most cases, dermatologists should be your go-to for hair loss diagnoses. But in reality, dermatologists and trichologists vary so much in quality that I have a hard time generalizing. I'd prefer to evaluate on a person-by-person basis.
Doctors usually go for the most likely cause, because it is most likely the case, especially if it does check all or most of the marks. Not many look further thinking what if it's not it and could it be something else? I heard a saying that most mistakes are made when a person gets overconfident and feels that they know it all. It's not that hard to overlook small nuances when you think that the case is obvious.
Hey Rob, thank you so much for this video, super informative. Im a 21 year old male with a nearly identical experience to alessandro with my hair loss starting at 14 and being told by multiple doctors its just normal AGA, yet finasteride and minoxidil have little effect on me. Do you think its worth going directly the same route as alessandro with the clobetasol or should i consult a specialist first? Also, do you think clobetasol can work by itself or is fin/min also required? Thank you for all that you do.
I think it's definitely worth seeing a dermatologist who specializes in hair loss disorders for a better diagnosis. Clobetasol might work if you're exclusively dealing with alopecia areata, but if you also have AGA, other treatments are also likely needed.
I think in most cases it is a combination of factors that contribute to hair loss which is why its such a difficult thing to treat. Minoxidil was extremely irritating on my scalp and finasteride seemed to have almost no effect.
@@Insp.CountMortisWinshipKlaw it's just not that simple. stress, genetics, hormonal changes, nutrition, haircare, certain illnesses can all have an affect on hair growth/loss.
@@camhunts Yuuve been lied to. It is lymphatic stagnation from eating cooked foods. I had psoriasis and arthritis, two incurable diseases according to the experts that you listen to. I ate nothing but raw fruit for 12 months and I am cured. Cooked foods are not natural, they are acidic and cause a mucus reaction from the body .
@@camhunts you forgot to mention the most (I repeat the most) important cause of them all is: SEMEN LOSS....if you lose it regularly or frequently, your hairs starts thinning super fast.....or gets discolored etc....I suffered baldness, while my other friend suffering white color hair lol
Im too afraid to go back to it. But my ketogenic diet unlocked something at one point. I had massive hair growth while 1yr strict no cheating keto on min/fin. I havent been able to repeat it. Theres something there. Not saying keto science is settled but it was absolutely no accident. It was keto 3 meals a day until 1yr, min/fin, daily 4-5k walks in sunny los Angeles. I had massive growth. Zero delusions or exaggerations here. Wife rarely comments but was like woah what is happening. After years of struggle. Then i quit keto and hair loss absolutely came back. Im gonna try to find solution without keto but may have to go back. 😢
@@boblully5053 thats a good point. Ive noticed circulation issues my whole life but never really complained to docs about it. I will have to really hammer into this with my internal medicine doc. My tests didnt alarm anyone this year. Although some out of range ( i forget), they assured me id be fine. And may have blamed on fact, which i warned, i accidentally ate and snacked the same of blood test.
Carnivore diet made a big difference for me. 2 years now and I haven't lost anymore and hair quality is much better. Noone would even think I'm losing hair now.
I noticed big difference too with a solid diet, still had carbs, but I also ran 1 - 3 miles daily and did hill sprints once a week and lifted. Hair grew back very thick but took at least a month to notice differences
Sorry, I didn't understand, can you please tell me if a person is not yet taking finasteride and has a low IGF-1 level, then most likely he will react badly to finasteride? Or did you mean when a person is already taking finasteride and has a low IGF-1, then does that mean he reacts badly to finasteride?
Ok. So, see a GP first. Get bloods done. Maybe hormonal? Take findings to a dermatologist/ trichologist and figure it out from there? I haven’t started treatment yet but got given details: 7% Min with 0.25% Fin with Retinoic Acid (topical), Saw Palmetto capsules, Red light. Apparently I have Stage 4 Androgenetic Alopecia
I think this is what I have. It started with extreme hair loss plus pustules on my scalp during a time of very high stress in my life. The hair went but the pustules persisted, only thing that would slow them was antibiotics. To manage I need to keep hair buzzed and use dilute bleach on my scalp weekly. 2 dermatologists did not know what the cause was, samples taken showed neither excessive amounts of bacteria nor serious strains of bacteria such as staph. The third dermatolgist thought it was auto immune related. My thinning is very diffuse and the hairline is maintained which is odd.
Hello. I need help. All dermatologists have told me I have androgenetic alopecia but I have tested my DHT levels and they seem pretty normal. I have hair loss in the scalp which I have slowed down with min and finasteride, but I really doubt what I have is androgenetic alopecia. How can I see a true specialist dermatologist?
A few things that might help: (1) Serum DHT levels are poor predictors of scalp DHT. So you don't necessarily need to have high blood DHT as part of an AGA diagnosis. (2) If these treatments are slowing down your hair loss, it's possible that AGA is (at least) part of your diagnosis. (3) On average, minoxidil and finasteride take 4-8 months and 18-24 months, respectively, to show their full results. So you may need more time. (4) Search for dermatologists in your area who (a) specialize in hair loss disorders, (b) regularly publish papers on hair loss, and (c) are attached to a teaching hospital or university.
I agree with the comment of dermatologist are really a waste of time for alopecia. I mean, its not really important to them. I saw two different dermatologist and both did the same thing. They looked at my head for about 5 minutes, said its alopecia and basically told me to take Finesteride. And that's it. They can't and have no way of fixing it. But no one asks about health issues. Blood tests, nothing. You really do have to do your own research. But at least now I know Finesteride takes two years to show any improvement. I was thinking it was not helping. But I will give it more time.
Any body here know of good hair dermatologists in Ireland? I've been to my doctor and a dermatologist once and felt very dismissive and no real investigatory work or "proper" questions asked. Asking as a 43M who's been batting hair loss since my early 20s.... got 2500 graft hair transplant 10yrs ago and looks terrible now (stopped taking finasteride and minoxidil as was sold the lies that transplanted hairs are not affected by DHT)..... and wish I found this channel 10yrs ago, would of saved me a lot of soul searching, thank you

I was wondering how your diet is going and how diet can affect things like hair loss. I saw a post in the carnivore community where someone noticeably regrew their hair. Could you make a video about nutrition and its impact on hair health or something like that?
really great video, i'm starting to believe i have the same conditions because i went through the same phases, i found a good result from minoxidil alone but then it started shedding like crazy, after that i had a hair transplant and it was looking very good but after 1 year it started to thing again, i'm now on minoxidil and started taking oral finastride, and i'm waiting to see the results after i year, i don't know any good doctor in my area but i'm starting to think about trying the Clobetasol Foam but i'm not sure for how long should i use it and what is the dosage?
Please make a video on transplants in diffuse thinning. Just talking about dpa not dupa or retrograde. Have heard transplants in jhst dpa too is less worthy since there will be overcrowding
Is there a way to get that foam without going through a bunch of lame doctors who don't know what they're talking about and wasting thousands of dollars? I like how all the hairloss websites just rubber stamp a prescription for anyone with hairloss, but unfortunately they don't offer Clobetasol foam.
Hey Rob , The below is what i ve been doing and its been working for me. The solution is Neck mobility exercises To fix forward head posture and muscle imbalance fixed my hair loss which can be evident throughout daily hair count texture and volume also my scalp has a uniform shape now due to the released scalp muscle tension (no more stress temporal lines and your scalp is moving freely) As the scalp muscle tension is a second order effect of shoulder,neck and back muscle tension due to overall muscle imbalance between chest and back which causes forward head posture on the long run. Exercises 1-Inverted head massage using silicone massager 2-Forward Head posture exercises 3-Neck mobility side to side and head movements in all direction (Swivel head exercise/Michael jackson movement) 4-Walking up right with straight spine 5-Microneedling 1.5 mm once a week 6-Niacin B3 vitamin (the skin flushing one) Hope my expirement helps someone Please refer to the below link (Fix this muscle) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Yehk_h_Uj6k.htmlsi=iw9agrLLtnpaJz8d

I'm not even sure if I am balding just worried about it, early balding doesn't seem to run in my family and I've always had a giant forehead + high hairline + thin light hair (my mother and sister have these trait as well) but I came across your website on Reddit, they were accusing you of lying, scamming, and so on yet you give your information entirely for free? You have a well-maintained website with so much information for free and yet they accused you of these things? I don't get it. The massage treatment is very interesting to me, because I suffer from TMJ + general muscle tension. I still don't know if I'm even balding, I'm prone to healthy anxiety but I'll incorporate the massaging into my daily routine. Nobody around me thinks that I'm going bald.
Yeah it’s unfortunate. I can only control what I say. I can’t control other people’s misinterpretations of it. I encourage you to read/watch what I release, rather than the interpretations of anonymous Reddit handles. A lot of that “bad press” started after we began publishing lab testing results for companies showing they were missing their labeling claims, so some people certainly have an incentive to make me look as ridiculous and untrustworthy as possible.
@@PerfectHairHealth It's just baffling how slanderous their accusations were. On an unrelated question, do you think caffeine has a positive or negative effect on male hair health? I've heard anecdotal accounts of people using topical caffeine leading to significant hair regrowth. One fellow said he achieved regrowth by literally pouring coffee on his head.
This article can help! Topical caffeine probably has some effect, though I don't think that for the average user it produces cosmetic levels of hair regrowth. perfecthairhealth.com/topical-caffeine-for-hair-loss/
I've been following Rob's advice and seeing hair regrowth. The vibe on the Reddit aga subs (and I say this as a reddit user of over 10 years) seems to be that a good chunk of people are in denial that their balding could be reversed or upset around the fact that they didn't need to hop immediately on meds, so they take it out on Rob instead
Also very important is Fish Oil or Cod Liver Oil especially with the highest concentrations of EPA and DHA which you can find by comparison to different brands in your health food stores, Fish Oil is a game changer like Steak and Pumpkin Seeds.......the main thing thats killing your hair is sugar in all its different forms,cut it out,lower your carbs and get exercise too.
Cod Liver Oil is toxic. The poisonous amount of "Vitamin" A will mess people up. And the oxidised PUFAs with their inflammatory characteristics on top of that.

Pics can be deceptive. Need to actually see with a scope. I take pics in different rooms in same day at same time and even with seemingly brighter lighting and results are different. My kitchen LED flood lights seem to be the most brutal if i stand directly below them.
Every androgenic alopecia diagnosis of the last 50 years have been wrong and misdiagnosed. There is no such thing as androgenetic or androgenic alopecia. It is a symptom of something else just like all other alopecia's. A disease where you just lose hair in a pattern? Or a final form aesthetic of nature are both outrageous. It makes no sense to take prostate medicine for a genetic disease. I reversed over a decade of severe balding and I teach men how to get their high school hair line back on my channel /@backtothebarber - because its not a real disease, but "conditionary..." and reversable.
@PerfectHairHealth Is it possible to rule out alopecia areata incognita by means of a blood test? In my case, values such as CRP & ANA were tested, which according to the doctor are unremarkable. Or is a diagnosis only possible by looking at the scalp? (My diagnosis of androgenetic alopecia was made by two dermatologists)
My understanding is that there aren't reliable blood tests to diagnose alopecia areata incognita, or for most hair loss disorders (unfortunately). In cases of lupus-associated hair loss, positive ANA tests might help as a diagnostic clue, but a scalp assessment (in my opinion) is really critical in almost all cases.
Hi doctor, thank you for the video once again ! I was wondering, can microneedling exhaust the skin ? like I mean, we're not made to heal from wound endlessly during our life, I think that, obviously, skin does have his limit too. And +, can the micronnedling damage your hair ? Like, even with a dermapen, it's a ton of needle that go against your hair every week, it should damage them right ?
I follow someone who has microneedled for 16 years (Claudia Glows), and her skin has only gotten better. You need to give your skin time to regenerate in between treatments. In general the longer the needles the longer the break between treatments. So from 1 week break with short needles, to 4 - 6 weeks for long needles.
Hello dr, I am a 16 yr old male,my dermatologist said that i have telogen effluvium but now i have lost 50 %or more of my hair and it has been 6months since it started to fall.plz can u tell me what has happened to me??.
Hello sir i m glad to watch your video that give me a hope . I lost my 40 percent hairs in 2021 but i was not aware of finasteride. But that time I also don't had any idea that my hair are losing due to depression or androgenic alopecia because that time i was also suffering by depression. after two year in December 2023 i started taking finasteride and its been 8 months I m still taking it. now i realize that my hairs stopped shading but still not regrow. now i have a little doubt that i have androgenic alopecia or depression. pls help me how to figure out the real problem

Hi, i have some question: Do you think masturbation causes hair loss? Mainly at the front part of the head? Back in July through the first week of August, i quit masturbating bcs i'm living together with my friend to work on a project. For some reason i started to feel like i'm losing way less hair than before. And after the project is done, i'm back doing the PMO shit. As a result, my hair is started to falling off again, like... A lot more. Now i started to quit PMO again to see if that's work. The second question is, does applying minoxidil causes hair loss at the first month?
