DHI study of the use of ACell Extracellular Matrix in Direct Hair Implantation
ACell’s Extracellular Matrix (ECM) is a natural biological material that can be implanted
at the site of an injury or damaged tissue in order to stimulate healing.
 
The graft stimulates the body’s own cells to form new tissue specific to that site (a process referred to as “Auto-cloning”). Therefore, instead of the body producing scar tissue, the body heals by remodeling with new tissue, almost as if the injury had never occurred.
DHI’s research on ECM has shown rapid tissue remodeling by promoting neovascularization (growth of new blood vessels) and recruiting host-derived mesenchymal cells (cells that lay down collagen and potentially can promote the formation of hair). These effects result in quicker healing of wounds and less scarring.
The possibility of using a biologically-derived matrix to enable hair multiplication is real, but
significant work remains in order for hair multiplication to become a practical treatment
for hair loss in men and women.
DHI is currently studying the use of ECM for scalp hair multiplication, as well as the
facilitation of wound healing in follicular unit transplantation procedures.
