June 2022 in “Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology” The gel with icariin speeds up wound healing, reduces scarring, and helps hair growth by controlling BMP4 signaling. It also reduces inflammation and improves wound quality in mice, adapts to different wound shapes, and gradually releases icariin to aid healing. It also prevents too much collagen and myofibroblast formation during skin healing.

November 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” Skin cells and certain hair follicle areas produce hemoglobin, which may help protect against oxidative stress like UV damage.
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. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
