Protocol summary

Study aim
Comparison of the efficacy, safety, tolerability and satisfaction of SVF injection in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
Design
This phase 1 study is performed on 24 patients with hair loss. In each session, one side is treated with SVF (intervention) injection and the other side is treated with normal saline (control) injection. All patients before the treatment and 2 months after the second visit and photos are taken by digital camera and tricoscan. To determine the extent of improvement and compare the two groups, at the end of the study, photos of patients are examined by two neutral dermatologists. Patients' satisfaction and tolerance are also recorded and the results are compared.
Settings and conduct
This project is performed in the Skin and Stem Cell Research Center of Tehran University of Medical Sciences and without informing the patients, one side receives SVF as an injection and the other group receives normal saline.
