Platelet Rich Plasma Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Men and Women
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical and Investigative Dermatology - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Androgenic Alopecia (AGA) is one of the most common hair loss complaints in men and women. The population frequency of AGA varies with ethnicity but as a rough generalization up to 70% of men and 40% of women will experience some degree of AGA in their life time. In most men AGA develops with a distinctive “patterned” hair line recession. In women the presentation may be less clear typically women will develop a diffuse thinning over the top of the scalp yielding a “Christmas tree” pattern with more thinning towards the front though the frontal hairline is maintained [1].
