TLDR PRP combined with minoxidil is the most effective treatment for hair growth in androgenetic alopecia.
This study compared the efficacy of minoxidil, dermaroller, and PRP treatments in 90 patients with androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Participants were divided into three groups: minoxidil alone, minoxidil with dermaroller, and minoxidil with PRP. Results showed that the combination of PRP and minoxidil significantly improved hair growth at 3 and 5 months compared to the other treatments. Dermaroller with minoxidil also showed improvements but was not statistically significant compared to minoxidil alone. The study concludes that PRP combined with minoxidil is a highly effective treatment for AGA, enhancing hair growth and patient satisfaction.
