“…The genetic precisely influences androgen affecting hair growth, of which male pattern baldness and heavy beard growth are obviously similar in families . Although there are several disorders causing hair loss as there were extensively presented and discussed regarding pattern alopecia including hypotheses on skull expansion relating to alopecia and the clinical evaluation, AGA is the main focus of this article respecting to its clinical importance.…”

or androgenetic alopecia directly distresses self-confidence affecting the individual's quality of life. Hair loss is therefore a significant psychosocial manifestation that worth much expense on treatment. Androgenetic alopecia is noticed as a slow transformation of large scalp terminal hair follicles to shorter, thinner, and less deep vellus hair with a much shorter anagen. Although minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride including other synthetic therapeutic agents are mostly used for alopecia treatment, their adverse effects encourage sorting of alternative efficient treatment agent with a limited side effect particularly herbs. Thus, this review briefly summarized causes of hair loss and emphasized on active ingredients for treatment in particular currently used herbs and the potential candidates. Treatment choices will be further wider and conclusively select herbs that fitting the consumers' preference.

“…The length of each phase is regulated by intrinsic and extrinsic factors throughout life and it is influenced by physiological and pathological conditions. [5,6] In a female pattern hair loss, there are alterations in the dynamics of the capillary cycle, whereby the anagen phase shortens and the telogen phase lengthens. Thus, in each cycle, there is a miniaturization of the hair.…”

“…Thus, the stem cells can be activated, allowing for a greater repair and a healing of the tissues. [5] Photobiomodulation induces a photochemical reaction in the cells, without producing any thermal effect, or causing any irreversible damage. Effects, such as a proliferation, a migration, an oxygenation, and an adhesion, are all induced and this may allow for the growth of the hair, by promoting the exit of the follicle from the telogen phase and stimulating the active anagen phase.…”

The female hair loss pattern was originally described as a synonym for androgenetic alopecia. It has been defined as progressive miniaturizations of the hair follicles, with a great impact on the quality of life of affected patients, causing significant psychosocial limitations. It was recently proven that photobiomodulation is a safe and effective way to treat the different types of hair loss. It was also known that microneedling is a minimally invasive dermatological procedure that is applied to a wide range of dermatological conditions, including androgenic alopecia, telogen effluvium, as well as other facial and bodily conditions. Goal: The aim of this study is to verify if there is an increase in the capillary density of strands of hair, when combining 660 nm red laser photobiomodulation and microneedling in addressing female pattern hair loss (FPHL). Methods: There will be 66 patients divided into 3 treatment groups. G1: microneedling and 660 nm red laser photobiomodulation sham ; G2: 660 nm red laser photobiomodulation and microneedling sham ; G3: microneedling and 660 nm red laser photobiomodulation. The treatment will consist in 36 sessions, 3 times a week for 3 consecutive months, with an insertion of microneedling every 30 days. The patients and the researchers will be blinded. The patients will be evaluated before, during, and after the treatments, by digital photography and the trichoscopy method (dermoscopic imaging of the scalp and hair). Expected Results: It is expected that differences will be found in the growth rates of a strand of hair in mm/d, in the density of a strand of hair in n/cm 2 , in the diameter of a strand of hair, as well as in the anagen/telogen ratio. Ethics and dissemination: This protocol was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Nove de Julho University, São Paulo, Brazil, on the date of November 28, 2018 (CAAE: 01381718.0.0000.5511 - Acceptance Number: 3044061). This trial has been registered with the Brazilian Registry of Clinical Trials (REBEC TRIAL RBR-76VCCV). This study is not yet recruiting. Issue date: February 20, 2019.
