A quercetin-encapsulated and polydopamine-integrated nanosystem (PDA@QLipo) shows promise for treating androgenetic alopecia by reshaping the perifollicular microenvironment, outperforming minoxidil in hair regeneration. The nanosystem promotes cell proliferation, hair follicle renewal, and recovery by scavenging reactive oxygen species and enhancing neovascularity.
A man who claimed to have regrown his hair using stem cell treatment, sparking a debate about its effectiveness and cost. Some users suggested he might be using other treatments or substances, while others shared their own experiences with stem cell therapy for hair loss.
