NCT ID NCT07248410
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether adding a stem-cell-derived exosome solution to fractional laser therapy helps regrow hair better than laser alone. Thirty men with male pattern baldness will receive three laser sessions and be followed for six months. Researchers will measure changes in hair density, thickness, and type using special imaging.
