March 2000 in “Preventive Nutrition and Food Science” This study suggests that biotin-rich functional food may stimulate hair growth and prevent hair loss through improved cholesterol and lipid metabolism and blood flow in men.
April 2021 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study developed a transgenic mouse model to explore androgenetic alopecia, finding that inducible COX2 expression led to sebaceous gland changes and hair miniaturization, with reversible effects upon reducing COX2.
December 2016 in “Journal of Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery” In this study, the Instant Follicular Hair Unit Transplant technique demonstrated superior hair growth compared to conventional FUE in patients with androgenetic alopecia, although it requires a steeper learning curve for surgeons.
