Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy: Myth vs. Reality

The study "Platelet rich plasma therapy- Myth vs Reality" conducted at a tertiary health care center in Western India evaluated the efficacy and safety of PRP in treating various dermatological conditions, including patterned hair loss, post-traumatic scars, acne scars, melasma, and striae distensae. The open-labeled interventional study included patients who underwent 6 sessions of PRP therapy, with responses measured using standard objective and subjective scores. The study found a significant improvement in hair count for patterned hair loss and highlighted PRP's potential efficacy across different dermatological conditions, despite acknowledging certain limitations. The results underscore the positive impact of PRP therapy in dermatology.
