What if your hair follicles held the key to reversing aging, improving recovery, and unlocking the future of regenerative medicine? In this episode, Dr. Randi sits down with Dr. Drew Taylor — former professional athlete turned biotech innovator — who now leads Acorn Biolabs, the company redefining how we think about stem cell preservation.
With a quick, non-invasive procedure that takes under 30 minutes, trained technicians collect 50 hair follicles from the back of the scalp. These follicles contain some of the body’s most potent stem cells — and Acorn’s breakthrough is making it possible to preserve them at their peak, before age and environmental damage take their toll. The cells are analyzed for viability and then cryopreserved at -196°C, stopping the biological clock in its tracks.
Right now, these preserved cells are being used in aesthetic medicine to support personalized treatments like skin rejuvenation, secretome therapies, and post-procedure recovery. But what’s even more exciting is what’s coming next. As regenerative science evolves, these same cells could be used in future applications that go far beyond beauty — from musculoskeletal repair to tissue regeneration and more personalized approaches to wellness and longevity.
Dr. Taylor breaks down how this all works, why hair follicles are such a valuable stem cell source, and what this means for both practitioners and patients. With over 100 clinics already offering the service across North America, stem cell banking is no longer science fiction — it’s a real, accessible health decision anyone can make today.
Whether you’re in aesthetics, wellness, or just curious about what’s next in medicine, this episode offers a fascinating look at the intersection of beauty, biotech, and the future of personalized regenerative care.
