About this trial
This study aims to compare the effectiveness of secretome injection and intradermal platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection on hair density and the terminal-to-vellus hair ratio in patients with androgenetic alopecia at Prof. Dr. I.G.N.G. Ngoerah General Hospital.

Treatments tested in this trial
Secretome
Biological/VaccineUC-MSC secretome was injected intradermally into the scalp at the alopecia site, with injections spaced 1 cm apart and administered every 2 weeks for 8 weeks
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections
Biological/VaccineThe centrifuged plasma solution was injected intradermally into the scalp at the alopecia site, with 0.1 ml per injection point spaced 1 cm apart, administered every 2 weeks for 8 weeks
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Terminal-to-Vellus Hair Ratio
The ratio of terminal hair (thick, pigmented hair, diameter \>40 micrometer) to vellus hair (fine hair, diameter \<30 micrometer) in areas of androgenetic alopecia
Hair density
The number of hairs per specific scalp area was measured in hairs/cm²
