    TLDR More research is needed to fully understand the benefits of platelet-rich plasma in medicine.
    The study discusses the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a plasma with high platelet concentrations, in various medical fields such as orthopaedics, dermatology, maxillofacial surgery, and dentistry. It has been used for wound healing, tissue regeneration, and minimally invasive therapeutic solutions, particularly on ligament and tendon tissues. In aesthetic medicine and dermatology, PRP has been applied for treating acne, androgenic alopecia, and delaying tissue ageing. Despite its therapeutic efficacy and low risk, the study concludes that more high-quality studies are needed for more reliable data on PRP use.
