January 2026 in “Dermatologic Therapy” In this prospective study, individuals with androgenetic alopecia using a home-use low-level laser therapy helmet for 48 weeks experienced significant increases in hair density and thickness, with reported improvements consistent across sexes and no device-related adverse events.
January 2026 in “Dermatologic Therapy” This study found that in patients with female androgenetic alopecia, mesodermal injection of 0.5% minoxidil was more effective in increasing hair density and improving hairline height than topical 2% minoxidil, with comparable safety over 16 weeks.
January 2026 in “Dermatologic Therapy” This study suggests that autologous platelet concentrates may improve inflammatory activity, disease control, and hair regrowth in primary cicatricial alopecia, but the evidence is limited by small sample sizes and study quality.
November 2025 in “Journal of Clinical Medicine” This study found that a novel drinkable supplement significantly increased hair density and reduced hair shedding over six months in women with telogen effluvium, although the authors emphasize the need for larger, placebo-controlled trials to confirm these promising results.
October 2025 in “International Wound Journal” In a study using a rat model of hypertrophic scars, researchers found that gamma-irradiated human amniotic fluid improved wound healing, collagen remodelling, immune response, and scar characteristics more effectively than saline or non-irradiated amniotic fluid, indicating its potential for clinical applications in scar management.
September 2025 in “International Journal of Women’s Dermatology” This study found that oral spironolactone 100 mg daily for 24 weeks improved terminal hair counts and diameters in premenopausal women with female pattern hair loss when used alongside minoxidil, despite a higher incidence of menstrual irregularities.
This study found that a combination of topical and oral treatment led to greater improvements in hair density, thickness, and anagen/telogen ratio in patients with androgenetic alopecia compared to topical treatment alone, with significant benefits observed over a 3-month period.
This review found that exosome therapy shows the most promise for hair regrowth and safety in treating androgenetic alopecia, surpassing platelet-rich plasma, while minoxidil remains less effective but more accessible. Further research is needed to refine these treatments.
