    GlossaryHair Follicle Regeneration

    process of repairing or renewing damaged hair follicles

    Hair Follicle Regeneration refers to the process by which damaged or inactive hair follicles are repaired or renewed, allowing them to produce new hair. This can occur naturally through the body's own healing mechanisms or be stimulated through medical treatments and therapies, such as stem cell therapy, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, or certain medications. This process is crucial for addressing conditions like alopecia and other forms of hair loss.

      in Update  24 upvotes 6 years ago
      Hair follicle regenerative therapy is being developed, with clinical trials planned in Japan, potentially allowing for hair cloning and eliminating the need for treatments like finasteride. If successful, the treatment could be available in Japan by 2025, but widespread access and affordability may take longer.
