    TLDR SVF treatment is more effective than Nanofat for hair growth.
    A study conducted on 30 patients with androgenic alopecia compared the efficacy of autologous Nanofat injection (Group A) and stromal vascular fraction (SVF) injection (Group B) over 8 months. Results showed that Group B had better outcomes, with 26.7% showing great improvement and 46.7% showing moderate improvement, compared to 6.7% and 13.3% in Group A, respectively. Hair density increased from 129.5 ± 10.8/cm² to 158.1 ± 21.02/cm² in Group B, while Group A saw an increase from 129.9 ± 13.7/cm² to 139.5 ± 18.1/cm². Both treatments were effective, but SVF showed a statistically significant advantage in hair density, clinical improvement, and patient satisfaction.

      The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.

      Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) impacts various skin conditions, including Androgenetic alopecia and seborrheic dermatitis, by causing overactivity in sebaceous glands. Topical medications Tacrolimus and Clobetasol can reduce these inflammatory conditions, and treatments like RU58841, Minoxidil, and Finasteride may also be beneficial.
