research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research (2015)
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
research Methylene Blue: Its Efficacy and Safety as a Storage Solution in Hair Transplantation
Methylene blue is less effective than normal saline solution for storing hair grafts and may reduce graft survival.

research The effects of autologus platelet rich plasma and various growth factors on non-transplanted miniaturized hair
PRP treatment helped reverse hair thinning and promoted new hair growth.
research Miniaturized hairs maintain contact with the arrector pili muscle in alopecia areata but not in androgenetic alopecia: A model for reversible miniaturization and potential for hair regrowth
Miniaturized hairs stay connected to muscle in alopecia areata, allowing possible regrowth, but not in androgenetic alopecia.
research Pattern hair loss: Assessment of microinflammation in miniaturized and terminal hair follicles through horizontal histologic sections
Microinflammation is more intense in smaller hair follicles and may be linked to hair loss.
research Viable terminal scalp hair follicles constitute a necessary and sufficient biological end‐organ that conditions clinical efficacy of finasteride in males with male pattern hair loss without implying reversal of miniaturized follicles
Finasteride works for hair loss by maintaining existing hair follicles, not reversing miniaturization.
