Abstract
A 25-year-old man with androgenetic alopecia showed limited response to long-term minoxidil and finasteride. Three monthly Biosome treatment sessions were associated with progressive clinical improvement in apparent hair coverage on serial follow-up photographs, without treatment-related adverse events during the 3-month observation period. This case provides a hypothesis-generating clinical observation supporting further investigation of Biosome-based therapy using standardized and objective outcome measures.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Case Reports is different from other case report journals. Our aim is to directly improve global health and increase clinical understanding using case reports to convey important best practice information. We welcome case reports from all areas of Medicine, Nursing, Dentistry, and Veterinary Science and may include: -Any clinical case or procedure which illustrates an important best practice teaching message -Any clinical case or procedure which illustrates the appropriate use of an important clinical guideline or systematic review. As well as: -The management of novel or very uncommon diseases -A common disease presenting in an uncommon way -An uncommon disease masquerading as something more common -Cases which expand understanding of disease pathogenesis -Cases where the teaching point is based on an error -Cases which allow us to re-think established medical lore -Unreported adverse effects of interventions (drug, procedural, or other).
