Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a treatment that doctors use to accelerate tissue repair. PRP treatment may promote new hair growth, but its use for hair loss remains controversial.
Doctors typically use this treatment when hair loss results from androgenetic alopecia, a common condition that causes hair follicles to shrink. In males, this is called male pattern baldness.
Although PRP is a relatively new approach, there is some scientific evidence to suggest that it can promote hair growth.
In this article, we describe how doctors use PRP to treat hair loss and what researchers say about its effectiveness.
PRP injections may be able to treat a range of musculoskeletal injuries and conditions. For example, chronic tendon injuries such as tennis elbow or jumper’s knee can often take a long time to heal, so adding PRP shots to a treatment regimen can help to stimulate the healing process, decrease pain and enable a return to activities sooner.
