Abstract

Platelet-rich plasma is the autologous plasma containing platelet concentration more than the baseline separated after centrifugation. It has become a very popular option for the treatment of hair loss in the past few decades. Used alone or in combination with other treatment options it has found a place as a hair restoration procedure throughout the world. However, evidence supporting its credibility is quite ambiguous with contradictory reports available in the literature. In this article, we try to analyze the available data regarding its mechanism of action, preparation protocols, and classification, with regard to hair loss.

TL;DR

This article analyzes the available data regarding platelet‐rich plasma mechanism of action, preparation protocols, and classification, with regard to hair loss to find evidence supporting its credibility.
