Abstract

In recent years, the number of people suffering from depression due to hair loss has been increasing. The treatment methods such as clinical pathology and vanity surgery have been developed. There are therapies and materials for hair growth promotion and hair loss prevention. But the effectiveness of such therapies and materials is not fully evaluated and some side-effects have been reported. In this study, microneedle therapy using very thin and delicate needles promotes absorption of drug. During this therapy, the microneedle makes micro holes that help absorbion of drugs into the scalp. In this study, absorbion of fermented soybean were evaluated. The ingredient has antioxidant, antiandrogen, and antithrombosis effect for alopecia. The fermented soybean is more effective for complex hair loss when used with microneedle. It is because of the microneedle's excellent drug delivery system (DDS). This therapy that increases the absorption of fermented soybean is a very useful scalp care method which prevents, treats and controls alopecia. This microneedle therapy using fermented soybean is an advanced technology for scalp care.

최근 몇 년 동안 탈모로 인해 우울증을 경험하는 인구가 증가하고 탈모 관련 치료법도 임상의학이나 외과적인 수술법과 같이 전문화되고 있다. 탈모 방지와 발모를 촉진하기 위한 시술법과 소재들이 있으나 그 효능, 효과가 뛰어나지 못하고 일부는 부작용을 동반하는 경우가 있다. 본 총설의 마이크로니들 시술법은 약물의 흡수를 촉진시켜주는 매우 작고 섬세한 니들을 이용한 시술법이다. 이 시술을 하는 동안 마이크로니들이 두피 내부로 약물의 흡수를 도와주는 마이크로 홀을 만들어 준다. 마이크로니들 시술 약물의 주요성분으로 대두 발효물질을 분석하였으며 대두 발효 소재는 탈모증에 항산화, 항안드로겐, 항혈전의 기능을 가진다. 대두 발효물의 흡수를 증가시켜주는 마이크로니들의 우수한 약물전달시스템으로 인하여 대두 발효물이 마이크로니들과 함께 사용될 때 복잡한 탈모기전에 더욱 효과적이다. 이 시술법은 탈모증을 방지하고 관리하며 개선시켜줄 수 있는 매우 유용한 두피케어법이며 일반적인 두피관리법 보다 더 빠른 효과를 나타낼 수 있어 차별화된다. 대두 발효물을 이용한 마이크로니들 시술법은 두피케어를 위한 진일보한 기술이다.
