May 2013 in “Zhonghua miniao waike zazhi” This study found that hair follicle stem cells show good biocompatibility with a heterogeneous bladder acellular matrix in vitro and in vivo, supporting potential use in bladder repair.
November 2013 in “Journal of clinical & experimental dermatology research” This narrative review discusses the potential of urinary bladder matrix as a bio-scaffold in hair restoration but provides no new clinical results or trials; it highlights regenerative technology and suggests further exploration.
This case report describes retinal occlusion and medial canthal swelling in a 64-year-old female following the injection of acellular porcine urinary bladder matrix for hair restoration, a previously unreported side effect.

February 2012 in “The American Journal of Cosmetic Surgery” This case series provides anecdotal evidence that urinary bladder extracellular matrix may improve hair regrowth in donor scars and enhance hair follicle graft outcomes in hair restoration surgery.
August 2025 in “Journal of Polymer Science” This review reports that combining adipose-derived stem cells with decellularized extracellular matrix enhances tissue repair by improving scaffold biological activity and promoting angiogenesis, integration, and functional regeneration across various tissues, while addressing challenges in traditional transplantation methods.
