Özet

Androgenetic alopecia also known as pattern alopecia, is a disorder characterized by the gradual onset of the conversion of terminal hairs into vellus hairs. Dexpanthenol has an anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effect and a cellular repair capability. We present nine male cases who had marked improvement after receiving only systemic dexpanthenol treatment for androgenetic alopecia.
