This paper discusses the various causes and types of alopecia and presents no original research findings.

Oral health affects overall well-being, with tooth loss impacting quality of life, nutrition, and health.

This review discusses the potential of PRP treatment for alopecia areata, highlighting reported hair growth improvements but notes the need for randomized clinical trials to confirm efficacy.

This study found that TriCell CD34 + cell-containing PRP injections improved hair thickness and density in patients with alopecia after three months of treatment, with no special side effects reported.

This study found that platelet-derived growth factor secretion in PRP therapy for alopecia is highly variable between patients, which may contribute to inconsistent clinical responses.

This study found that leukocyte-rich platelet-rich plasma appeared safe and may offer some benefits to patients with scarring alopecia, though further research is needed due to the small sample size.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma treatment effectively decreased hair fall and increased hair growth in male patients with androgenetic alopecia.

This review examines platelet-enriched plasma as a potential new treatment for androgenetic alopecia but reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest standardizing its use based on alopecia stages.

In this study, significant improvements in Androgenetic Alopecia were observed with both PRP and SVF therapies, with SVF showing greater effectiveness in increasing terminal and vellus hair counts.

This review discusses the clinical treatment progress and future application prospects of platelet-rich plasma for androgenetic alopecia but reports no new clinical results.

In this observational and interventional study conducted in Dhaka, Bangladesh, PRP treatment led to clinical improvements in hair count, thickness, and density among 20 out of 30 male patients with androgenetic alopecia, with significant statistical support (p-value 0.00) following 2-3 treatment sessions.

This letter raises questions for the authors of a recent study on platelet-rich plasma for androgenetic alopecia, without presenting new clinical results.

This study's meta-analysis reported that PRP injections significantly increased hair density compared to baseline and placebo in androgenetic alopecia patients, supporting its use as a beneficial treatment.

This review found that three monthly PRP injections improved hair density in patients with androgenetic alopecia compared to placebo, but more rigorous studies are needed for broader dermatological applications.

This article reviews the use of platelet rich plasma in regenerative medicine and highlights the need for standardization in its preparation and application, reporting no new clinical results.
