October 2021 in “Dermatologic Therapy” The study compared the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) application using dermapen microneedling and intradermal point-by-point injection methods in patients with androgenetic alopecia. Clinical findings and Trichoscan analysis were used to evaluate the outcomes. The results indicated that both methods significantly improved hair density and thickness, but the dermapen microneedling method showed slightly better results in terms of patient satisfaction and hair regrowth. The study suggests that PRP application, particularly through microneedling, can be a promising treatment for androgenetic alopecia.
