Pattern-type hair loss is a highly prevalent condition affecting the majority of men and women at some point in their lifetime. Although genetics and androgens are instrumental in the pathogenesis of this type of hair loss, it is increasingly recognized …
Background: Alopecia areata (AA) is caused by an autoimmune attack of the hair follicle. The exact pathogenesis is unknown, but hypotheses include innate immunity imbalance, environmental exposures, genetic predisposition, and possibly the microbiome. The objective of this study was to …
Michael Randolph BS and Antonella Tosti MD Miami Florida Background: Although topical minoxidil is an effective treatment option for hair loss many patients are poorly compliant due to the necessity to apply the medication twice a day, undesirable hair texture, …
Abstract Accumulating evidence suggests that adipose-derived stem cell constituent extract (ADSC-CE) helps hair regrowth in patients with androgenetic alopecia (AGA). However, the e!ects of ADSC-CE have not been demonstrated in a randomized, double-blind, vehicle- controlled clinical trial. In this randomized, …
Abstract Introduction: Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) that can be harvested from fat cells are one of the latest breakthroughs in the aesthetic field. In addition, basic studies have reported that ADSC conditioned medium (ADSC-CM) promotes skin and hair regeneration. We …
Key takeaways: 80% of participants reported an increase in hair growth, hair volume, scalp coverage and hair regrowth by week 8. There were no adverse events. Revivv, a novel topical serum, led to meaningful improvements in hair growth with no …
Abstract Objective In this study, our aim was to investigate the clinical effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the skin of patients suffering from plaque psoriasis or atopic dermatitis. Methods Over a period of 53 months, we treated a …
Summary The platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous biotherapy commonly used for its healing properties. Once activated, platelets released a real “cocktail” of growth factor and cytokines implied in numerous regenerative processes. However the impact of medical practices associated to …
Abstract Background: Antiplatelet therapies are often withheld before and after platelet-rich plasma product (PRPP) administration due to theoretical concerns that therapies that inhibit the function of platelets would inhibit the effects of PRPP. Purpose/hypothesis: The purpose of this study was to evaluate …
