Abstract in brief

  • The ScalpTensionRelaxer (STR) is a new device designed to improve hair growth in men with male-pattern baldness by relieving tension on the scalp's vertex area.
  • The treatment showed a 40% success rate in promoting hair regrowth among alopecia patients, with the device working by pushing the scalp upward to reduce tension.
  • The underlying mechanism for hair regrowth appears to involve increased blood flow and skin temperature in the scalp, as measured by laser Doppler flowmetry and thermography during and after using the device.]

@9mm_smg Been shaving my head bald for many years. Then I found a video about scalp muscle tension... and it just made sense. Now I have noticeable regrowth after a few months of 20 minute daily head massage with tallow & caffeine. https://t.co/AyCYetQnLX
