August 2025 in “Revista Contemporânea” This study reviewed literature on the combined use of microneedling and essential oils for treating male androgenetic alopecia, finding that this approach potentially enhances scalp vascularization and hair growth, although controlled clinical trials are needed to confirm these effects and standardize treatment protocols.
June 2026 in “RCMOS - Revista Científica Multidisciplinar O Saber” This descriptive literature review suggests that rosemary essential oil may stimulate hair growth in androgenetic alopecia with effects similar to 2% minoxidil, yet highlights the need for more robust clinical trials to confirm these findings and assess complementary methods like scalp massage and high-frequency treatment.
In this study, researchers examined a document submitted by Jakeline Ortega related to Joandele Cristina da Silva Barcelos, but results or specific findings are not reported in the abstract.
This review discusses the potential effectiveness of certain essential oils in promoting hair growth for alopecia and reports no new clinical trials; the authors suggest these oils may increase hair thickness and volume.
