research Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia with 5-Aminolevulinic Acid Photodynamic Therapy: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Split-Scalp Study of Efficacy and Safety
Using 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy for hair loss didn't increase hair growth but slightly reduced scalp oiliness, and it was safe with mild side effects.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research 2015
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.
research Photobiomodulation for the Management of Alopecia: Mechanisms of Action, Patient Selection, and Perspectives
