Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of autologous hair follicle stem cell transplantation for hair restoration in patients with alopecia.
Methods Ten patients with alopecia, including five with androgenic alopecia and five with seborrheic alopecia, were selected from November 2022 to May 2023. They were treated with autologous hair follicle stem cell transplantation. Data before treatment were used as the control group, and data after treatment were used as the study group. Follow-up was conducted for 3 to 8 months. The FPF scoring system was designed to collect data and evaluate the treatment effect.
Results Nine patients had an improvement score of ≥7 points, and one patient had an improvement score of 2 points, with a treatment excellence rate of 90% (9/10). Compared with the total score of (2.81±0.92) points in the control group, the total score of the study group was (9.00±2.21) points, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.001).
Conclusion Autologous hair follicle stem cell transplantation for hair restoration is safe and effective, and has a broad range of indications.
