Abstract

The use of platelet rich plasma is becoming popularised as a treatment for the aging face. In an attempt to assess the quality of evidence supporting this treatment for facial rejuvenation, a systematic review of randomised controlled trials was conducted. All trials were included until February 2016. The review failed to identify any clinical studies meeting the inclusion criteria. The efficacy, short and long-term safety of platelet rich plasma for facial rejuvenation has not been demonstrated. The appropriateness of delivering these treatments in the absence of these data is questionable.
