Abstract

Background: Khalitya (hair loss) is a prevalent condition in Ayurveda. Vatajata (Banyan Tree) has been traditionally used for hair care in Ayurvedic formulations. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of stem cells derived from Vatajata in managing Khalitya.

Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted on individuals with Khalitya. Participants were divided into two groups: one receiving topical application of Vatajata stem cell extract and the other a placebo. Hair count, scalp biopsy, and patient-reported outcomes were assessed at baseline and after a specified duration.

Results: The Vatajata stem cell extract group demonstrated a significant reduction in hair loss compared to the placebo group. Additionally, improvements were observed in hair growth, scalp health, and overall hair quality. No adverse effects were reported.

Conclusion: The findings suggest that Vatajata stem cells hold promise as a potential therapeutic approach for Khalitya. Further research is warranted to explore the underlying mechanisms and optimize the use of this natural remedy.
