NCT ID NCT07518342

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a single injection of nanofat (processed fat from your own body) can treat pattern hair loss better than standard options. Sixty adults with androgenetic alopecia will receive either one nanofat injection, three monthly PRP injections, or daily topical minoxidil. The goal is to see if the one-time procedure can match or beat the daily routine.

What this could lead to
