Dr. Ziering Mentioned in NewBeauty | Hair Follicle Freezing: A Futuristic Approach

A close-up image of a person with long, flowing hair, captured in motion. The hair appears to be light brown with natural highlights, creating a dynamic and lively effect as it sways. The background is softly blurred, emphasizing the movement and texture of the hair. This image evokes a sense of freedom and vitality, making it suitable for topics related to hair care, fashion, or personal expression.

Beverly Hills, CA hair restoration specialist Dr. Craig Ziering tells us that freezing hair follicles for potential future use is not only on the horizon, but also already here. He likens it to the concept of freezing eggs for fertility preservation. “With this innovative approach we pluck hair follicles, isolate their stem cells, and subsequently multiply and transform them into different types of stem cells. Much like cord blood banking, individuals can freeze and store these versatile stem cells for future applications. While the treatment isn’t yet available, it holds immense promise for addressing hair thinning concerns in the years to come,” he says.
