This trial tests if a non-ablative laser can help treat scarring alopecia (a type of hair loss where follicles are replaced by scar tissue). Researchers will also study your hair follicles' genes to understand how the laser works. It may be an option if your hair loss has been stable for at least 3 months.
This study tests whether a specific 1470nm laser can improve hair loss in people with certain scalp conditions. It looks for people whose hair loss is stable for several months and who can keep their usual hair treatments unchanged during the study.
This study compares two types of laser treatments to see which works better for women with hair loss. It may help you if you are a woman aged 35 to 65 with thinning hair on top or front of your scalp.
This trial tests a new ultrasound device designed to help regrow hair in people with male or female pattern baldness. The study evaluates whether the device is safe and effective at promoting hair growth over time.
This trial tests whether adding exosomes (tiny particles from cells that may help healing) to fractional laser therapy improves hair regrowth in men with male pattern baldness. You will be randomly assigned to get laser on your whole scalp, but only half will also get exosomes applied.
This study tests whether laser therapy can help treat small bumps (papules) that appear on the face in people with frontal fibrosing alopecia, a type of hair loss. If you have these bumps and are generally healthy, you may be able to join.
