Androgenetic alopecia is one of the main causes of hair loss in men and women, negatively impacting patients' self-esteem and quality of life. This study, through a literature review, analyzed the effectiveness of microneedling combined with growth factors in follicular regeneration and increased hair density. The results demonstrated significant improvement in blood circulation, thickness, hair resistance, and hair strength, as well as a positive impact on the psychological well-being of patients. The results indicate that microneedling combined with growth factors is an effective, safe, and promising alternative for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia.
