Minoxidil/Dermastamp can cause baldness that did not exist before?

[CrusaderGypsy]

I have a slightly receding hairline, but it's not "the best" or "good looking" for my age.

I know this doesn't stop alopecia if it's genetic; it only slows down and improves the appearance.

But I remember reading that using it in cases not prescribed by a professional can cause alopecia that didn't exist before.
(I saw it from an old doctor who about hair loss on Instagram.)

According to ChatGPT, there are no studies on this, but I'd like to know what you think.

I dont certanly know if a have a DHT problem. Finasteride is expensive in my country and again, im not sure if i need a DHT lowering for my case.

Its just for improving my hairline appearance and in the best case slow down the loss if my hairline becomes more recessed

then use minoxidil and derma stamping should be done only once a week on a good week, it will be counterintuitive if done more frequently,
