According to the World Health Organization data, one out of every five Chinese men has a hair loss symptom, and the hair loss is as high as 84% before the age of 30. Based on the experience of clinicians, there seems to be an increasing trend of alopecia patients who seek the treatment in Taiwan. Treating pathological hair loss requires prompt diagnosis and management to prevent conditions that could lead to permanent hair loss. The current methods of treating hair loss include oral drugs, topical medication, laser illuminating treatment, platelet-rich plasma and hair transplant surgery. However, these treatments also have different disadvantages. Prolonged continuous use of oral and topical medications may be accompanied by side effects. Other treatment modalities may require higher costs, require return visits, or be more invasive. Previous study found that the composition of small DNA fragments (SF DNA) possesses not only toxin-free in primary human skin cells and nude mice, but also inhibits inflammation and ROS generation in the process of skin aging. SF DNA also contributes to promote the proliferation and differentiation of hair follicles, and stimulates the hair growth in nude mice through affecting JAK-STAT pathway. The investigators hypothesize that the clinical application of SF DNA scalp conditioning solution attenuates inflammatory responses, promotes the proliferation and differentiation of hair follicles, and increases the hair of hair loss patients and inspires the quality of life.
