Abstract (original English)

Background Adipose-derived stem cells secrete various cytokines that promote hair growth. Objective To describe our experience of hair regeneration therapy using adipose-derived stem cellconditioned medium. Results We performed the hair regeneration therapy in numerous Japanese patients and reported good results. We described characteristics of the commercialized conditioned medium, treatment methods, and future directions. Conclusion Treatment using adipose-derived stem cell-conditioned medium is highly effective and may represent a new therapy for alopecia.

What this study does not prove

  • • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
  • • This is a narrative review: it collects no new patient data and does not systematically appraise evidence quality.
