Keratin hydrogels from human hair show promise for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
April 2011 in “ISRN Dermatology (Print)” The wigs made from human hair and polypropylene were mostly well-tolerated and durable in rabbits, suggesting they could be a new option for people with extensive hair loss.
Hair transplants can cause hair loss if done while lichen planopilaris is active; wait until it's inactive for two years and check with a scalp biopsy first.
May 2006 in “Dermatologic Surgery” Most nonbald men's multi-hair follicles are naturally positioned perpendicular to a line from the scalp's crown, which is important for natural-looking hair transplants.
June 2004 in “Dermatologic Surgery” Dr. Walter P. Unger suggests that copying a person's natural hair direction and angle during transplants leads to a more natural and fuller appearance.
April 2003 in “Experimental Dermatology” The workshop highlighted the genetic links and psychological impacts of hair loss and skin disorders.
March 2003 in “Dermatologic Surgery” Dr. Dominic A. Brandy shared methods to fix aesthetic problems from old hair restoration techniques, using methods like follicular unit grafting and scalp removal, which helped patients look more natural after surgery. He also suggested using oral finasteride and topical minoxidil to control hair loss in most men with baldness, especially those who had flap surgery.
September 2002 in “Dermatologic Surgery” The best results in surgical hair restoration come from careful techniques, optimal use of limited hair supply, correct hair direction, saving hair for key areas, understanding scarring effects, and adjusting hair graft density.
July 1998 in “Dermatologic Surgery” Various techniques and tools for hair restoration were presented in 1998, including a mathematical model for donor area, use of lasers in surgery, methods for controlling grafted hair direction, and ways to increase graft yield. Satisfaction rates were around 39%, and studies showed trauma and dehydration can damage hair follicles.
January 1989 in “Clinical and Experimental Dermatology” The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
December 2016 in “Paleontological Journal” Hair growth can be induced by transplanting certain cells, but these cells lose their properties during culturing. The best cell interaction happens in a liquid medium under gravity, and using collagen doesn't help. Future research could focus on using growth factors to stimulate these cells.
