Hair regeneration treatment using stem cell conditioned medium

October 2012 in “ Institutional Repositories DataBase (IRDB) ”

Hirotaro Fukuoka, Hirotaka Suga

TLDR Stem cell treatment can effectively regrow hair.

The study investigated the use of adipose-derived stem cell conditioned medium (ADSC-CM) for hair regeneration, known as HARG® therapy. AAPE® was used as the ADSC-CM product and applied through mesotherapy. The effects on hair growth were evaluated using trichograms in a study involving 21 participants (5 women and 16 men). Results showed a significant increase in the number of hairs in a specific area after two treatment courses (p<0.01), indicating that ADSC-CM was effective for hair regeneration.
