Abstract:
We previously demonstrated a systemic and topical effect of
cyclosporine on
hair growth in an experimental model composed of human scalp skin transplanted onto nude mice. The aim of this study was to determine whether topical
cyclosporine affects male pattern alopecia. For 4 months in a double-blind study, 10 subjects were treated with
cyclosporine and three were treated with olive oil.
Hairgrowth was evaluated by photographs and
hair counts. Significant
hair growth was observed in two of the eight patients who completed the study. In one the
hair growth was cosmetically satisfactory. No systemic or cutaneous side effects were noted.
