October 2022 in “PloS one” Scientists have developed a method to keep chicken feather follicles alive and structurally intact in a lab for up to a week.
January 2013 in “프로그램북(구 초록집)” The study evaluated the efficacy and safety of sequential treatment with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection followed by mesotherapy in treating various types of alopecia in males and females aged 20-60. Clinical improvement in hair count and thickness was observed in all patients, with no significant side effects other than mild pain and transient bleeding at the injection or microneedling site. In vitro, PRP demonstrated anti-apoptotic effects by upregulating BCl-2 expressions in cultured dermal papilla cells. The study concluded that this sequential treatment promoted hair growth.
