Brief Summary

(SINGLE SITE Study) The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the use of an autologous hair follicle derived secretome for androgenous alopecia. The secretome will be injected into the scalp at baseline, and days 30, 90, 180, 270 and 365. Hair growth will be quantitatively measured for density and thickness. PROs will also be collected from participants. This study will be run at a SINGLE SITE.
