Ahn DH, Kang I. Transdermal delivery of a new hair growth promoting solution in patients with hair loss. Int J Case Rep Images 2019;10:101016Z01DA2019.ABSTRACT
Introduction: Male pattern alopecia or hair loss has been treated using various treatment approaches including hair transplantation, oral medications, sprays, mesotherapy and stem cell therapy. However, response rates to such treatments are variable.
Case Series: In this case series, 6 Korean patients (5 males and 1 female) with hair loss were treated for three months with hair growth promoting Mr. Care Hair Vital Ampoule® or Mr. Care Hair Vital Ampoule plus® (Mr. Care Co., Seoul, South Korea) using the high-pressure transdermal delivery system JetPeel™ (TavTech Ltd., Yehud, Israel). Either Mr. Care Hair Vital Ampoule or Mr. Care Hair Vital Ampoule plus was sprayed on the affected area(s) of the scalp once a week for three months via the Jet Peel™ system.
Conclusion: We found that all the patients had less hair loss and thicker hair after this treatment. Based on our findings, we believe that additional placebo-controlled studies are needed to evaluate the efficacy of our combination treatment.
