    replicating hair follicle cells to treat hair loss

    Hair Multiplication, also known as hair cloning, is a technique aimed at treating hair loss by replicating hair follicle cells. In this process, healthy hair follicles are extracted, cultured in a lab to multiply the cells, and then re-implanted into the scalp to promote new hair growth. This method holds promise for providing a more abundant and sustainable solution for individuals suffering from conditions like androgenetic alopecia.
