July 2026 in “International Journal of Clinical & Experimental Dermatology” This exploratory pilot study reported that using a 2% Oleosome-FGF-2 fusion extract scalp serum twice daily for 84 days in women with telogen effluvium and brittle hair improved hair density, anagen/telogen ratio, hair shaft thickness, and scalp hydration compared to a placebo.
May 2026 in “Malaysian Journal of Medicine and Health Sciences” This study found that in a testosterone-induced androgenetic alopecia mouse model, the combination of PRP-derived small extracellular vesicles and 5% minoxidil significantly improved hair follicle density and the anagen-to-telogen ratio compared to minoxidil alone, suggesting a synergistic effect that enhances hair growth.
July 2025 in “Journal of Dermatological Treatment” This study found that platelet-rich plasma significantly improved hair growth parameters in androgenic alopecia patients and was even more effective when combined with minoxidil, particularly in reducing vellus hair.
