These treatment methods appeal to those who are averse to drugs and surgical options. One of the most recently well studied regenerative treatments for alopecia is platelet-rich plasma or PRP.<\/p>\n<p>Because the treatment is prepared from the patient\u2019s own source of platelets (i.e. a blood sample) immunogenic reactions are significantly reduced. Blood is removed from the patient, and platelets, along with specific molecules associated with them, are separated from the rest of the sample and concentrated to prepare the treatment.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-343 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/chtc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/platelet-rich_plasma.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"330\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chtc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/platelet-rich_plasma.png 800w, https:\/\/chtc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/platelet-rich_plasma-300x124.png 300w, https:\/\/chtc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/platelet-rich_plasma-768x317.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia with Platelet-Rich Plasma<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>After injection of PRP into the affected scalp areas, specific growth factors in the preparation are proposed to stimulate hair initiation and extension phases while promoting vascularization.
