January 2024 in “Journal of Medicinal Food” This study found that Nephelium lappaceum extract restored hair growth more effectively than finasteride in mice with testosterone-inhibited hair growth, suggesting its potential as a nutraceutical for hair growth.
This study found that human hair exhibits significant deformation in its intermediate filaments under strain, with recovery taking about 1000 minutes, suggesting a self-healing period post-mechanical stress. Additionally, cuticle scales deform much less than the cortex, and the Poisson ratio aligns with soft matter properties.
February 2019 in “Case medical research” The document does not state whether dexpanthenol dermal spray helps skin recover after laser hair removal.
August 1994 in “Journal of dermatological science” Active oxygen scavengers can reverse the suppression of hair cell growth caused by androgens.

January 2018 in “Journal of Cosmetics Dermatological Sciences and Applications” This study observed that a targetoid polycyclic concentric hair regrowth pattern appeared in some male patients with alopecia areata following treatment, indicating a positive sign of recovery despite unclear etiopathogenesis.
July 2022 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study reports that Huaier promotes hair growth and tissue regeneration in cancer recovery by activating the Hedgehog signaling pathway, potentially preventing recurrence and metastasis independently from SMO function.
This study found that oxidized hair undergoes time-related structural changes, resulting in improved thermal and mechanical stability over several months after moderate or intense oxidative treatments.
December 2025 in “Cureus” This case report found that hyperbaric oxygen therapy significantly accelerated postoperative recovery in hair transplantation patients, improving healing, graft integration, and patient satisfaction without complications.

,
September 1998 in “PubMed” This study found that the water fraction of Panax ginseng may reduce apoptosis and enhance medullary cell formation in the hair follicles of irradiated mice, suggesting a potential protective effect.
31 citations
,
August 2000 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that when human hair follicles were grafted onto mice, they progressed through dystrophic stages and returned to normal growth, with stem cells aiding in recovery.
144 citations
,
June 2008 in “Cell Cycle” This study found that in mice, transplanting hair follicle stem cells promoted recovery from spinal cord injury, as these cells largely differentiated into Schwann cells aiding nerve repair.
April 2024 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study found that bioconjugating 16-methylheptadecanoic acid (16-MHA) to damaged hair can mimic the protective properties of 18-methyleicosanoic acid (18-MEA), restoring the hair's structural integrity and moisture homeostasis, even after washing.
5 citations
,
May 2022 in “Fashion and Textiles” This study found that Argan oil conditioner significantly enhanced tensile strength and retained hair color in bleached hair more effectively than Camellia oil.
25 citations
,
May 2013 in “Experimental Dermatology” This study found that topical EGF-liposomal solution may protect hair follicles from chemotherapy-induced damage by inducing a catagen-like stage in a mouse model.
January 2013 in “Seoul National University Open Repository (Seoul National University)” This study found that pretreating hair follicles with epidermal growth factor (EGF) may protect against chemotherapy-induced hair damage by inducing a catagen-like stage, thus supporting primary hair recovery.

May 2024 in “Cytotechnology”
This study reports that a novel eyelash transplantation method using chalazion forceps effectively thickens and enhances eyelashes by precisely placing transplanted hairs in a narrow recipient area, with approximately 85-92% of transplanted lashes expected to grow within 12 months.
November 2023 in “ACS Nano” In a mouse model of deep skin burns, this study found that a neuro-inspired biomimetic microreactor, when delivered through a hydrogel and activated by near-infrared light, significantly promoted functional skin regeneration, sensory recovery, and hair follicle formation.
4 citations
,
November 2024 in “Scientific Reports” This study found that bioconjugating 16-methylheptadecanoic acid to damaged human hair can mimic the protective function of the original 18-methyleicosanoic acid, effectively restoring both the hair's external structural integrity and its internal moisture balance.
39 citations
,
January 2016 in “Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery” This study found that intra-operative platelet-rich plasma therapy may enhance hair regrowth, increase graft density, and activate dormant follicles more effectively than normal saline in follicular unit extraction hair transplant patients.
