Stem cell hair treatment for alopecia

 

The latest news on stem cell hair treatment for alopecia

At present, there are only a few approved medications to treat hair loss - all of which come with potential side effects. The most common type of hair loss is androgenic alopecia, also known as male or female pattern baldness.

Recent research from Tokyo Medical University and Toho University revealed that the application of RCH-01 stem cells can be used as an effective treatment to increase and regulate hair growth.

What is a stem cell treatment for the hair ?

In collaboration with Tokyo Medical University, Toho University, and Shiseido, Replicel Life Sciences has been conducting stem cell treatment clinical trials that have been successful.

A form of autologous cell therapy using dermal sheath cup cells that are isolated from hair follicles is used to treat androgenetic alopecia.

Cells are isolated from a small sample of tissue taken from the back of the scalp and used to grow and replicate more cells. For injections into the scalp's balding areas, dermal injectors are used.

The study confirmed in a press release that cell therapy technology is safe and effective, and the institutions are looking to develop cell therapy for a broad range of people suffering from sickness and thinning hair, but are still in the research stage.

Is regrowing hair possible ?

There are several reasons for hair loss. Stress, hormonal imbalances, diet, and medications can all temporarily cause hair loss, but the hair will usually grow back after identifying and resolving the trigger.

Typically, androgenetic alopecia is genetic, and hair loss is permanent, so it is impossible to regrow hair without taking medications such as Finasteride or Minoxidil.

Although Finasteride and Minoxidil are FDA-approved treatments for pattern baldness, they only work for as long as they are taken, and they can cause side effects, so they are not a permanent solution.

How can I regenerate my hair growth ?

If your hair loss is caused by stress, hormonal imbalances, thyroid issues, or medications, it will likely return once the trigger has been removed and your body has returned to its natural state.

As your diet and hair care routine have a large impact on the health of your hair, it's important to eat a healthy diet, take the right vitamins and supplements, and maintain good scalp and hair routines.

It stands to reason that a hair transplant is the safest way to achieve a full head of hair without any nasty side effects. At Elithair, we have more than 35,000 patients with an overall rating of 4.96 out of 5.

Is hair duplication available yet ?

Though stem cell hair treatment approaches are getting closer to approval, hair duplication is still in its infancy. In hair reproduction, donor follicles are multiplied by new hair to create new hair.

The goal of hair duplication is not to transplant hair but to duplicate human hair or to have hair regrow naturally where it would not have previously grown.

Despite numerous previous studies on hair copying, there is no clear timeline for clinical trials or public release.

What is the latest treatment for hair loss ?

A revolutionary stem cell serum called Neo FUE enhances the results of hair transplants by preparing the hair and scalp for grafting.

Neo FUE awakens hair follicles and enriches the microenvironment; it is available only to Elithair patients. Apply it to the scalp with a dermaroller seven days before a hair transplant and also the day before the procedure.

In addition to its demonstrated excellent results on thousands of patients, Neo FUE has also been shown to improve the strength and firmness of hair follicles.

FUE hair transplants can be more effective by 30% when the grafts are harvested considering their resistance to external environmental factors during harvesting.
