    TLDR PRP is a promising non-surgical option for skin and hair rejuvenation.
    Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was highlighted as a promising therapeutic modality for tissue repair and hemostasis, gaining attention since the 1970s. It was used across various medical fields, including dermatology and aesthetic medicine, for applications such as hair restoration and chronic ulcer treatment. PRP's efficacy was enhanced when combined with other aesthetic procedures like fractional laser or lipostructure. It was considered a promising nonsurgical option for patients experiencing hair loss, indicating its potential in both medical and cosmetic applications.
