Are NeoGraft results permanent? Transplanted hair from NeoGraft is permanent, but surrounding hair may still thin.

PP405 is an experimental topical gel from Pelage Pharmaceuticals that inhibits the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier; its registered Phase 2 trial (NCT06393452) tested it once daily in 78 adults with pattern hair loss, for safety and tolerability. It is not approved, not for sale, and has not been studied in alopecia areata or stress-related shedding.

learn Platelet-Rich Plasma

Are Platelet results permanent, or does hair loss return once treatment stops? Hair loss typically returns after stopping PRP treatment, as effects are not permanent.

learn Centella

Got small bald circles with no warning? Centella creams might calm the area and kickstart new growth. There is no published human trial of Centella asiatica for alopecia areata or any other hair loss; the only hair-related studies are cell-culture work. Community users describe Centella creams as soothing for an irritated scalp, not as regrowth treatments, and a new bald patch needs a doctor's diagnosis first.
