**Combining Microneedling and Minoxidil Treatment for hair growth **

A comprehensive review on microneedling and its use in hair loss disorders was published recently, providing insights into the strengths and drawbacks of various studies on microneedling./nMicroneedling shows positive benefits in both men and women of all ages, especially when used in combination with other treatments./nNeedle lengths of about 1-2.5 millimeters are more effective than shorter needle lengths in microneedling./nMicroneedling can cause some bleeding and inflammation of the scalp, but it is not considered a very painful procedure./nCombining microneedling with minoxidil treatment is more effective than either treatment alone and can even recover bald or mostly bald regions on the scalp, although it may take a long time for hair growth in these areas./nMinoxidil treatment may need to be continued for life to maintain the obtained hair growth./nThe decision to go on minoxidil is likely a decision to be on minoxidil for the rest of your life.
