Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is the most common cause of hair loss globally, affecting millions of people, particularly men. Current treatments include FDA-approved drugs and devices, but many patients experience side effects or suboptimal results. The niostem device is a new, wearable device that delivers low-level electrical stimulation to promote hair growth. This pilot study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the niostem device in male AGA patients.
METHODS: A total of 21 male patients with AGA used the niostem device daily for 30 min over 6 months. Participants had not used any anti-hair loss products within the 6 months preceding the start of the study. Hair density, thickness, and terminal hair counts were assessed at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months using trichoscopic measurements. Patient-reported outcomes were recorded, and adverse events were monitored.
RESULTS: The niostem device resulted in significant increases in hair count, with a 12% increase in total hair density at 3 months and a 19.3% increase at 6 months. Hair thickness also increased by 8.8% in 6 months. Terminal hair density improved significantly over time, with visible hair growth observed in the participants. No adverse events were reported.
CONCLUSIONS: The niostem device demonstrated a significant increase in hair density and hair thickness in male AGA patients, with no adverse effects. Further large-scale studies are warranted.
