Very interesting research with cure for AA.
What do you think guy does it have potential against AGA? I am not so educated in this matter :\

I sent email to that researcher but got no replies.

Wow

AA has a very specific physiological trigger that they have essentially found a cure for, but even that comes with very risky side effects. AGA has completely different and infinitely more difficult mechanisms.

Pretty awesome. Good for her, and anyone dealing with AA.

Its moore than "pretty awesome" for them

Hadn't heard of this? Would you mind elaborating on the side effects for the treatment this woman had? I couldn't find much on Google

This is a full study. Everything should be here.

although we know that AA is probably a very different mechanism compared to AGA it still must be the case that those drugs or stem cell treatments start triggering a lot of growth factors releases or so, otherwise this boost in hair growth can't be explained. there are positive effects from this on the hair follicles in general, so I see a good chance this could have a good effect for MPB too. however, nobody will try this out for MPB, so we will never know. that's the big problem with all the recent treatments against AA which popped up in the recent months.

In AA hair follicle stem cells are maintained just like in AGA. Seeing a patient get so much regrowth really puts a smile on my face that the same can possibly be done with AGA

So, the 95% of hair loss sufferers which are AGA sufferers, get snubbed once again huh? Cool. Nice to see the priorities of researchers are in check.
