Novel Electrotrichogenic Device Promotes Hair Growth in Men With Androgenetic Alopecia: A Pilot Study

The pilot study assessed the niostem device, an at-home electrotrichogenic device, for its ability to promote hair growth in men with androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Conducted over 6 months with 22 male participants (20 completing the study), the device was used daily for 30 minutes. Results indicated that by 6 months, 100% of participants experienced hair regrowth, with a 19.3% increase in hair density and an 8.8% increase in hair thickness. The study concluded that the niostem device effectively increased hair density and thickness, offering a promising non-invasive treatment for AGA. However, the small sample size and absence of a control group suggest the need for larger trials to validate these findings.
