  + stars: | 2023-11-30 | by ( Serafina Kenny | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
Dr. Adam Friedman takes hair loss drugs, and helped identify a shortage of them earlier this year. Dr. Adam Friedman, professor and chair of dermatology at George Washington University, has been taking minoxidil for thinning hair for three months. Friedman didn't lose any hair because of the shortage, partly because he was already taking finasteride, another hair loss drug. Consider what might happen if you stop taking minoxidilFriedman said that if you stop taking minoxidil, you won't lose all your hair immediately. He acknowledged that although hair loss isn't a "medically threatening" condition, it can greatly impact people's quality of life.

A quick peruse on social media and you'll quickly see that bite-mark tattoos are having a moment. However, a Betty Zoo Tattoo representative told Business Insider that the tattoo — which cost roughly 800 Danish kroner, or around $118 — was "harmless." You don't know where that person's mouth has been," the tattoo artist, who goes by Miss Vampira on Instagram, said. Mary Minahan is a tattoo artist with over a decade of experience in the industry. And while he's happy with his new ink, Thage said he plans to return to Betty Zoo Tattoo for a touch-up.

☆ Don't waste money on biotin or collagen supplements, dermatologists say: The better way to get 'beauty' nutrients
  + stars: | 2023-07-22 | by ( Renée Onque | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
From 2011 to 2020, the percentage of Americans who reported taking a hair, skin and nail vitamin in the past month rose from 2.5% to 4.9%. "Someone died because a heart attack was missed [during testing]," Friedman explains, saying that the patient's troponin levels weren't showing any sign for concern. "They weren't elevated in this one individual who was taking a biotin supplement for hair growth." Biotin, or vitamin B7, is commonly found in most foods and multivitamins, so people rarely need supplements, anyway, says Friedman. "If you were biotin deficient, you wouldn't be going to Walgreens to buy a bottle of biotin," he says.
