Dermatologists at the FUE Asia Regional Conference 2026 in Hyderabad highlighted the growing acceptance of advanced hair loss treatments, including medical and regenerative trichology, among patients.
Conference organising president, Dr. Rajetha Damisetty, noted a significant shift toward evidence‑based, non-surgical, and regenerative therapies for managing hair loss. She emphasized that medical trichology plays a crucial role in diagnosing underlying conditions such as hormonal imbalances, thyroid disorders, PCOS, insulin resistance, and nutritional deficiencies, which often manifest as hair fall.
Experts at the event discussed the evolution of regenerative trichology beyond conventional platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. Advanced techniques such as bio‑activated PRP, exosomes, stromal vascular fraction, and nano‑fat therapies are now being used to stimulate hair regrowth and enhance scalp health by harnessing growth factors from fat cells.
The conference, attended by delegates and faculty from over 20 countries, focused on scientific advancements, patient safety, and ethical medical practices in hair restoration. Speakers emphasized that hair loss treatments and transplantation are medical procedures, not merely cosmetic services, and reiterated that dermatologists are the qualified specialists for diagnosing and treating hair and scalp disorders.
Concerns were also raised over misinformation and unsafe practices promoted on social media, prompting calls for stricter regulations and greater public awareness.
The event featured notable speakers including Dr. Kuldeep Saxena, Dr. Jalagam Vijay, Dr. Rajetha Damisetty, Dr. Ben Butwong, and Dr. Kavish Chouhan, who engaged in discussions on the latest trends and best practices in hair restoration.
