    TLDR Centrifugal forces can help prepare hair follicle germs for hair regeneration.
    The study explores the preparation of hair follicle germs (HFGs) using centrifugal forces for hair regenerative medicine. Various methods for HFG preparation, such as cell self-assembly, bioprinting, and microfluidics, have been previously reported. These methods have shown efficiency in regenerating hair follicles when transplanted into the back skin of nude mice. The research was conducted with the approval of relevant animal care committees and supported by several grants. The authors are affiliated with TrichoSeeds, a company focused on hair regeneration technologies.

      in Update  24 upvotes 6 years ago
      Hair follicle regenerative therapy is being developed, with clinical trials planned in Japan, potentially allowing for hair cloning and eliminating the need for treatments like finasteride. If successful, the treatment could be available in Japan by 2025, but widespread access and affordability may take longer.
