December 2021 in “Journal of clinical images and medical case reports” PRP generally shows better results for hair regrowth than mesotherapy, but more research is needed.
March 2023 in “Anais Brasileiros De Dermatologia” The document reviews various treatments for female pattern hair loss (FPHL), highlighting the efficacy and safety of different therapeutic options. Topical minoxidil is the most supported treatment but is ineffective for about 40% of patients. Oral minoxidil shows promise but has potential side effects. Antiandrogens like spironolactone and bicalutamide are effective in certain cases, with cyproterone being more effective in hyperandrogenism. Emerging treatments like microneedling, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) show potential but require more research. The review emphasizes the need for personalized treatment plans and further randomized clinical trials to improve FPHL management.
