research Platelet-Rich Plasma in Androgenetic Alopecia
The document reviewed the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in treating androgenetic alopecia (AGA), highlighting its potential to stimulate hair growth through various pathways. Despite promising results, the effectiveness of PRP was limited by inconsistent preparation methods and lack of standardization. Meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) showed an increase in hair diameter and count, but results were not statistically significant due to high methodological variability. The manual double-spin method was recommended for PRP preparation, with a platelet concentration of 1 to 1.5 million/μL being optimal. PRP showed better hair growth results compared to finasteride, minoxidil, and low-level laser therapy, and was effective in women unresponsive to minoxidil. The study concluded that PRP should be part of a multipronged approach for treating AGA due to its minimal adverse effects and significant efficacy.

research Platelet-Rich Plasma by Single-Spin Process in Male Pattern Androgenetic Alopecia: Is It an Effective Treatment?
The study investigated the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) prepared by a single-spin process in treating male pattern androgenetic alopecia. The results indicated that PRP treatment led to a significant increase in hair density and thickness in the 50 male participants, suggesting PRP could be a promising treatment option for male pattern hair loss. However, the commentary noted that the single-spin method often failed to achieve the ideal platelet concentration of ≥1 million platelets/μl, unlike the double-spin method, which produced better clinical outcomes. It emphasized the need for standardized PRP preparation methods and further clinical trials to validate PRP's efficacy in hair restoration.
