May 2026 in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology” Fractional laser therapy has been shown to significantly improve hair density in patients with androgenetic alopecia, as evidenced by a meta-analysis of 15 studies involving 1,097 patients. The therapy was found to be effective regardless of whether ablative or non-ablative lasers were used, and across different wavelengths. Additionally, combining laser therapy with other treatments like minoxidil provided further benefits. The adverse events reported were mostly mild to moderate, such as erythema, pain, and pruritus, which resolved on their own. Overall, fractional laser therapy is considered an effective and safe treatment option for androgenetic alopecia, though further high-quality studies are needed to confirm its long-term efficacy and determine the best treatment parameters.
