TLDR Different hair loss treatments like topical mixtures, plasma infiltrations, and oral medicine can stop hair loss and improve hair density and follicle size.
The study, "CLINICAL ASSESSMENT OF THE THERAPEUTIC OPTIONS FOR ALOPECIA TREATMENT," aimed to evaluate different treatments for hair loss, including a topical mixture of finasteride and minoxidil, PRP (platelet rich plasma) infiltrations, and oral medicine. The treatments were tested on a series of patients experiencing hair loss, regardless of whether they had a known medical cause for their condition. The goal of these treatments was to halt hair loss and improve both hair density and follicle diameter.
