Stem cell therapy for hair loss is showing promise in regenerating hair follicles and promoting hair growth, especially in androgenetic alopecia. It uses stem cells like adipose-derived and hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells, which can self-renew and differentiate. These cells activate dermal papilla cells, stimulate follicular regeneration, and increase hair density. Intradermal injections, often with growth factors and vitamins, are currently preferred for their stability and effectiveness. Research continues to find optimal donor sites and expand application methods to enhance hair restoration therapies.
