Q: There is currently a hair growth treatment that is being offered for people who suffer from serious hair loss.
In the treatment, blood cells are taken from a person with healthy hair (not your blood cells but from someone else). These cells are then genetically modified in a lab and mixed with a serum which is applied onto your head. They then do micro needling which allows the serum to get into your scalp.
During the process of the treatment, you are also required to use a minoxidil spray every night.
Is the above treatment permissible to use?
A: Yes, this treatment is permissible, and if the spray does not contain anything impermissible or impure in it, then using the spray will also be permissible.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
