Abstract
Background: The most typical type of hair loss in men is known as male androgenetic alopecia (MAA). MAA predominantly affects the mid frontal scalp, vertex, and temples in a very consistent way. Hair loss affects self-image and is a significant contributor to anxiety and depression in some men. PRP is described in the literature as a sample of autologous blood obtained by centrifuging whole blood and having platelet concentrations above normal physiologic levels. Its effectiveness is strongly related to the regeneration-promoting effects of locally produced growth factors, which are thought to be composed of more than 30 biologically active proteins. Aims and Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of platelet-richplasma as monotherapy in androgenetic alopecia in male patients. Materials and methods: A total of 20 male patients with androgenetic alopecia were enrolled in this study. PRP was injected into the scalp of these patients. A total of 6 such sittings were given to each patient at interval of 15 days each, over a total period of3 months. Follow up was taken after 3 months and pre and post treatment response was noted using clinical photographs
