November 2024 in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology” Regenerative medicine is effective and safe for treating vitiligo.
November 2024 in “Health Science Reports” This systematic review found that light and laser therapies, including excimer and erbium-glass lasers, generally increase hair density and diameter in various types of alopecia, with particularly notable effects in androgenic alopecia but limited efficacy in telogen effluvium.
June 2024 in “Stem cell research & therapy” This systematic review examined 64 randomized controlled clinical trials on regenerative medicine for specific dermatologic disorders, reporting up to 68.4% improvement in androgenetic alopecia and up to 71% improvement in vitiligo among 2888 patients.

December 2023 in “Cell proliferation” This review suggests that the umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cell secretome presents a promising approach for skin regeneration and wound healing due to its multiple therapeutic properties, highlighting its potential over traditional treatments for conditions like chronic wounds and alopecia.
November 2023 in “Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering” This review highlights the potential of exosomes, particularly their microRNA components, as promising candidates for developing effective hair loss treatments by exploring their roles in hair follicle development and regeneration.
May 2023 in “Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology” In this study, human dermal fibroblast-conditioned medium was found to contain numerous proteins involved in wound repair and hair regeneration, with identified proteins forming interaction networks linked to key signaling pathways like epidermal growth factor receptor and transforming growth factor-β.
