Stem Cell Therapy in Baldness

A patient with hair problems wants to know about hair growth therapy with stem cells:

Can you also treat bald spots on the scalp and how long does the treatment/result take?

Baldness can be treated with stem cells isolated from the body’s own fat. The treatments duration is about 2 hours and the result can be recognized after about 5 to 6 weeks.

Do you have scientific results? Publications, etc.?

The application of stem cells for the purpose of hair regeneration is currently subject of research. We have compiled some publications regarding therapy with stem cells from autologous fat.

Can hair treatment with stem cells revert androgenic alopecia?

It is possible to delay alopecia, or to be precise, to let hair grow at those areas where vital hair roots still exist. That means if you already start the therapy at an early age hair loss could indeed be prevented.

Are stem cells an alternative to hair transplantation?

Yes, but the indication is different. Hair transplantation is the preferred therapy for treating completely bald heads, but the less suitable therapy for the treatment of areas with hair loss and beginning baldness.
