    Abstract Objective: Assess the perceived efficacy of stabilized, super-oxidized hypochlorous acid (HOCl) in hair transplant surgical procedures intraoperative and postoperative.
    Background: Stabilized, super-oxidized hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is highly effective against bacterial, fungal, and viral microorganisms. In addition, topical HOCl will increase tissue oxygenation of wound sites to aid in healing. This molecule represents an ideal agent for intraoperative and postoperative use in hair restoration procedures that involve thousands of small wounds.
    Methods: 35 patients were enrolled in a multi-site study following repeat or initial hair restoration surgery. Surgeons were provided a 500 mL trigger spray bottle of HOCl spray liquid for use prior to and throughout the surgical procedure. Patients were provided with a ten-day supply of HOCl for postoperative care. Two formulations were utilized, one was applied to the recipient sites while the other was applied to the donor area postoperatively. Patients and surgeons were provided with observational surveys regarding healing and usage of the products.
    Results: Statistical analysis found 56% had significant reduction in the amount of erythema compared to their current wound healing regimen. More than half of the patients (54%) had significant improvement of pruritus. The compliance rating for this study was 97% among patients. Surgeons were queried on the overall efficacy. There were no incidences of donor or recipient tissue necrosis.
    Conclusion: The evolution of hair restoration surgery has been accompanied by large numbers of grafts being implanted. This change necessitates the requirement for optimum intraoperative and postoperative care. Topical, stabilized hypochlorous spray represents a major advance in wound cleansing and healing and offers the theoretical benefits of reducing tissue necrosis through oxygenation.

    Abstract Background: Limited information exists on the long-term risks to individuals undergoing procedures in hair restoration surgery. The short-term risks are well known and similar to other procedures in dermatologic surgery. The long-term risks of hair restoration surgery are seldom discussed between the physician and patient.
    Objective: The author sought to describe a classification system that can be used as a communication tool between physicians and patients to define the long-term risk involved with hair restoration surgery.
    Methods: The Progressive Loss (PL) Scale is an attempt at assessing the cosmesis because of future hair loss following a hair transplant procedure. The PL Risk Scale has designated 5 levels, 1 to 5, with each ascending level representing a higher level of risk. The PL Risk Scale can be assigned to an individual at the time of the assessment for hair restoration surgery.
    Results: Each patient can be assigned a risk level based on how future hair loss may affect the overall cosmetic result of their hair transplant. This risk is dependent on age, and specific for the area to be transplanted. The younger the age of the patient, the higher the risk. The larger the area to be transplanted, the higher the risk. It is not a static scale, because it will be affected by age, donor area, location of transplantation, and other mitigating factors.
    Conclusion: Pattern baldness in men and women is progressive and unrelenting. The dichotomy of hair restoration surgery is that a satisfactory short-term outcome can evolve to disappointing results because of progressive hair loss. The PL Risk Scale can be assigned to every individual undergoing a hair restoration procedure. This scale assignment will convey to the patient their lifetime risk associated with any given surgical hair restoration procedure for that age and the specific area to be restored.

    Abstract Objectives: This study compared the efficacy of dutasteride vs. placebo in the treatment of male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) in 17 pairs of identical twin males with androgenetic alopecia over a 1-year period.
    Methods: In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-center study, one twin from each identical twin pair received dutasteride 0.5 mg/day for 12 months while the other received placebo for 12 months. Hair growth was evaluated using standardized clinical photographs, hair counts, and patient self-assessment questionnaires.
    Result: Dutasteride significantly improved hair growth at 1-year compared to placebo based on the analysis of the investigator assessment and the patient self-assessment questionnaires. Sixteen of 17 sets of twins completed the study, of which 15 sets correctly predicted the use of dutasteride. Only one set could not determine the active drug from the placebo.
    Conclusion: Through the use of identical twins, this randomized trial provides evidence that dutasteride significantly reduces hair loss progression in men with male pattern hair loss.
