New to Platelet-Rich Plasma? There is a guide in the encyclopedia. Read the guide → Studysummary This review discusses hemostatic treatments and PRP injections in treating hair loss and concludes no new clinical results, highlighting theoretical connections between hair health and blood condition. Our plain-language summary of this paper — not a Tressless recommendation.
The document from January 1, 2014, explored the effect of hemostatic treatment on hair loss. The study utilized Xiang and Shu thinking patterns to develop a theory that hair reflects the condition of blood and analyzed clinical statistics along with international literature. The results indicated that using Xiang and Shu thinking patterns could explain the theory that hair signals blood health. It was found that many reinforcing drugs with hemostatic effects are beneficial in treating hair loss. Additionally, research from outside China demonstrated that injecting Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), which is rich in blood cells, into the scalp is effective in treating hair loss. The conclusion drawn was that hemostatic treatment could potentially accelerate the treatment of hair loss.
