February 2020 in “Transfusion and Apheresis Science” Platelet-derived bio-products help in wound healing and tissue regeneration but lack standardized methods, and their use in medicine is growing.
January 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings” The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia.
