The New Regenerative and Innovative Strategies in Hair Loss
June 2021
TLDR New treatments for hair loss, including a compound called "ALRV5XR", platelet-rich plasma, and Adult Stem Cell-based therapy, are showing promise, but more trials are needed for confirmation.
The document discusses the rise in clinical trials evaluating new regenerative and innovative strategies for treating male and female pattern hair loss. One such strategy involves a compound called "ALRV5XR", derived from botanical extracts, vitamins, and minerals, which has shown promising results in a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial. This compound aims to prolong the anagen phase of hair follicles and induce neogen in involuted hair follicles. The document also highlights the increasing use of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and Adult Stem Cell-based therapy (A-SC-BT) in treating hair loss. PRP, which contains growth factors, promotes cell proliferation, differentiation, and neo-angiogenesis, thereby stimulating hair growth. A-SC-BT is also gaining interest for its potential in hair regrowth. However, the document notes that more systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm the standardized use of these regenerative and innovative strategies in hair loss treatment.
