TLDR The treatment led to denser, thicker hair growth and less hair loss.
This case series treated three male patients with androgenic alopecia using a combination of autologous stromal vascular fraction cells (SVFs) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The treatment involved scalp injections and resulted in denser, thicker hair growth and minimal hair loss after 1-3 months. The study concluded that SVFs' multipotent properties and growth factor secretion enhanced hair growth cycles, suggesting this combination therapy could be a promising treatment for androgenic alopecia and potentially other types of alopecia. Further long-term studies were recommended to confirm these findings.
