TLDR PRP therapy can regrow 30%-40% of lost hair in 3 months without side effects.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy emerged as a promising solution for hair loss, affecting millions of Americans, including 30 million women. PRP, known for its use in healing joint injuries and cosmetic treatments, involves injecting plasma derived from the patient's own blood into areas of hair loss. This method, which stimulates blood vessel repair and collagen growth, showed significant results with a 30%-40% restoration of lost hair after 3 months of treatment. Unlike other FDA-approved hair loss treatments like finasteride and minoxidil, which have side effects, or invasive hair transplants, PRP offered a natural, side-effect-free alternative with minimal discomfort.
