Abstract
Background: Microneedling (also called "percutaneous collagen induction") is a minimally invasive technique used to treat a wide variety of skin disorders. This treatment's creation was come to light in 1995, when Orentreich and Orentreich employed dermal needling to address subcision scars. To do this, subcuticular incisions were made by putting needles under the skin and guiding them to the desired location. One of its recent developments is the use of microneedling to treat androgenic alopecia (AGA) on the scalp. Microneedling has been demonstrated to improve results when compared to using minoxidil alone.
Objective: Thisreview article aimed to throw the light on possible role of microneedling in dermatology, especially androgenic alopecia.
Methods: Microneedling, Dermatology, and Androgenic Alopecia were all looked for in PubMed, Google scholar, and Science direct. References from relevant literature were also evaluated by the authors, but only the most recent or complete studies from 2008 to 2022 were included. Due to the lack of sources for translation, documents in languages other than English have been ruled out. Papers that did not fall under the purview of major scientific investigations, such as unpublished manuscripts, oral presentations, conference abstracts, and dissertations, were omitted.
Conclusion: Several clinical studies demonstrated in most cases, a positive outcome for microneedling as an adjunct therapy for androgenic aopecia.
