This review examines the use of microneedles for treating alopecia areata, highlighting their ability to enhance drug delivery through the skin by bypassing the outer barrier and promoting hair growth with minimal invasiveness.

This review highlights the potential of microneedles as a pediatric-friendly method for delivering proteins, vaccines, and diagnostics transdermally, noting their ability to penetrate the skin's barrier and suggesting future applications in other parts of the body.

In this study, a 21-year-old male with alopecia areata showed complete hair regrowth after following a 100-day holistic Ayurveda treatment, which included Pracchana karma, Gunja-Kalihari lepa application, and Ayurveda formulations, resulting in a SALT-2 score reduction from 66% to 0%.

In this study, researchers developed a novel TA-encapsulated microneedle applicator that successfully promoted hair growth and reduced inflammation in a C3H/HeJ mouse model of alopecia areata, potentially offering an improved alternative to existing treatments.

This study found that using an electrical microneedling device enhanced the penetration of liposomal melanin-fluorescein into hair structures and widened the follicular infundibulum in ex vivo human skin models.

This study reported that using non-absorbable magnesium microneedle patches for 12 weeks improved under-eye wrinkles as measured by a grading scale and wrinkle index, with minimal discomfort and no significant change in dermal thickness.

In this study, researchers developed grooved microneedles made from hyaluronic acid for precise transdermal drug delivery, achieving accurate dosage with a high probability of delivery (98% or more) by using an easy-to-operate applicator for shearing force.

This study found that a microneedle system delivering VEGF and Ritlecitinib improved hair regeneration in mice with androgenetic alopecia, showing faster anagen onset and better hair quality compared to minoxidil.

This review discusses transdermal drug delivery using hydrogel-forming microneedles and highlights their potential for disease treatment, but notes challenges in their clinical application.

This study found that microneedle delivery of Polygonum multiflorum extract led to earlier pigmentation and hair regrowth in mice with androgenetic alopecia.

This study involved selecting patients with specific types of alopecia for treatment but does not report clinical outcomes.

This study found that STAR particles, when applied to human skin, were well tolerated and highly acceptable at various pressures and with repeated daily use, suggesting they may provide a safe and effective method for enhancing drug delivery through the skin.

This study found that microneedling-induced microinjury in mice promoted hair growth by stimulating the TNF-α/Wnt/VEGF pathway, and blocking TNF-α inhibited this process.

This review examines the mechanisms of hair follicle development and regeneration, discussing current hair loss treatments and emerging therapies like low-level laser therapy and stem cell therapy, which the authors suggest show promise in managing hair loss.

This review highlights advancements in nanotechnology-based treatments for androgenetic alopecia, noting that these strategies could improve targeting and modulation of hair follicle environments compared to traditional therapies like minoxidil and finasteride, but also emphasizes challenges around safety, manufacturing, and regulation.

This review highlights the potential of nanotechnology for hair follicle regeneration, focusing on strategies such as hair cycle modulation, progenitor cell stimulation, and wound-induced hair neogenesis, while also discussing regulatory challenges that may affect the development of these innovative approaches.

This review highlights the use of microneedling devices and patches to deliver cosmetic agents through the skin, noting their applications in skin rejuvenation and safety considerations such as potential skin irritation and infection.

This review indicates that while microneedling shows potential for managing androgenetic alopecia, particularly in combination with other treatments, the existing evidence is of low to moderate quality, and more robust trials are needed to confirm its clinical efficacy and safety.

This review highlights recent advancements in nanotechnology-based approaches for treating androgenetic alopecia, focusing on enhancing drug delivery to hair follicles, controlled release, and follicular microenvironment modulation, while addressing safety, manufacturing, and regulatory challenges for clinical application.

This study found that transtherapy, a treatment using Korean medicine, significantly improved acne scars, reducing the scarring grade from an average of 3.5 to 1.5 in moderate and severe cases.

This review explores the use of topical and transdermal delivery for drugs and cosmetics, highlighting the benefits of avoiding side effects and rapid metabolism, with a focus on nanoparticulate formulations and techniques for studying skin penetration.

PRP treatment satisfies 58% of female hair loss patients, with most noticing fuller, thicker hair and less shedding.

This review highlights microneedling's promise as an adjuvant therapy for enhanced drug delivery in dermatology, especially for conditions like atrophic scars and pigmentation disorders, though its efficacy for vitiligo is limited.

This review highlights that microneedling shows some promise for improving hair growth in alopecia, particularly when used with other treatments, though more research is needed to establish its efficacy and protocols.

This article explains that skin microneedling promotes skin regeneration by creating microinjuries, which stimulate collagen and elastin production, making it effective for treating various skin issues with high effectiveness, limited side effects, and a short recovery time.

This review discusses novel treatments for androgenetic alopecia, including therapies like platelet-rich plasma and adipose-derived stem cells, and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the potential of adipose-derived tissue components like nanofat and stem cells for aesthetic rejuvenation, covering their use in hair growth, scar reduction, and more, without reporting new clinical results.

This study suggests that combining microneedling with ALA-photodynamic therapy may be a promising treatment option for moderate to severe alopecia areata, achieving significant hair regrowth in some patients.

This study found that adding platelet-rich plasma to microneedling improved outcomes for atrophic acne scars more than microneedling alone, according to both quantitative and qualitative assessments.

This review discusses the use of microneedling for androgenetic alopecia and finds it promising for enhancing hair density and thickness, especially when combined with other treatments, but notes no standardized protocol exists yet.
