46 citations,
March 2015 in “Regeneration” Mice can grow new hair follicles after skin wounds through a process not involving existing hair stem cells, but requiring more research to understand fully.
1 citations,
January 2019 in “Journal of Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery” Stem cell therapy shows promise for hair loss treatment, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.

5 citations,
November 2015 in “International Journal of Radiation Biology” Gamma-ray exposure can cause long-lasting damage to hair follicles, affecting hair structure and color.
November 2020 in “Bali Medical Journal” PRP may help hair growth in alopecia areata without major side effects, but more research is needed.
58 citations,
January 2020 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” Different methods of preparing Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) can affect wound healing and hair regrowth in plastic surgery. Using a kit with specific standards helps isolate PRP that meets quality criteria. Non-Activated PRP and Activated PRP have varying effects depending on the tissue and condition treated. For hair regrowth, Non-Activated PRP increased hair density more than Activated PRP. Both treatments improved various aspects of scalp health.
44 citations,

June 2007 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” Hair can regrow in adult mice's skin after injury, and this regrowth doesn't come from existing hair cells but from skin cells in the wound, with Wnt7a protein helping this process. This could help treat baldness and scarring.
