Efficacy of platelet-rich plasma in androgenetic alopecia patients
August 2019
in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology”
TLDR PRP therapy safely improves hair growth in people with hair loss.
The study found that platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a safe and effective technique for restoring hair growth in androgenetic alopecia (AGA) patients, with no side effects. The hair density increased significantly, and the pull test showed a reduction in the number of hair pulled. The study concludes that PRP therapy is an effective method of hair restoration in AGA patients in both men and women.
