This study reviewed eight studies investigating transcutaneous drug delivery via fractional laser and microneedling for alopecia treatment, with six studies showing improved hair regrowth over topical therapy alone, suggesting its potential as a promising treatment strategy, although further research is needed to refine treatment parameters.
research A Randomized Controlled, Single-Observer Blinded Study to Determine the Efficacy of Topical Minoxidil Plus Microneedling Versus Topical Minoxidil Alone in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
This study found that combining microneedling with topical minoxidil was more effective than minoxidil alone in increasing hair count and improving patient satisfaction for men with androgenetic alopecia, though the cosmetic impact was not significant.
research An Overview of the Biology of Platelet-Rich Plasma and Microneedling as Potential Treatments for Alopecia Areata
This review discusses platelet-rich plasma and microneedling for alopecia areata, reporting promising small-scale findings but no new results, and suggests further trials to determine efficacy and specific disease subtype suitability.
research Microneedling for the Treatment of Hair Loss
This review highlights that microneedling shows some promise for improving hair growth in alopecia, particularly when used with other treatments, though more research is needed to establish its efficacy and protocols.
research An Overview of the Biology of Platelet-Rich Plasma and Microneedling as Potential Treatments for Alopecia Areata
This review discusses the potential use of platelet-rich plasma and microneedling for alopecia areata and reports encouraging findings, but no new clinical results; future research is needed to validate these treatments.
research Randomized Trial of Electrodynamic Microneedle Combined with 5% Minoxidil Topical Solution for the Treatment of Chinese Male Androgenetic Alopecia

research Micro-Needling Depth Penetration, Presence of Pigment Particles, and Fluorescein-Stained Platelets: Clinical Usage for Aesthetic Concerns
This study found that micro-needling with cosmeceuticals or platelet-rich plasma significantly improved wrinkles, skin laxity, scar softening, and hair growth over 12 months, with minimal side effects, and that the best results occur with pigment and platelet massaging between 5 to 30 minutes post-treatment.
