What is PRP?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a serum accumulated from your blood. They are platelets or thrombocytes, named after their classic flat and round dinner-plate-like shapes. These cells clot together and form a cohesive mesh to close wounds. Platelets can trigger cell reproduction and stimulate tissue regeneration through their growth factors.
PRP gives a new therapeutic option for hair loss, including androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss. The therapy is a safe, effective, steroid-sparing, and alternative treatment for alopecia areata. This treatment increases potent hair growth stimulator, fibroblast growth factor-7, and Beta-catenin.
