Alopecia Treatment
Androgenetic alopecia or common baldness is one of the most frequent consultations made by our patients. Multiple treatments are available that depend on the sex and age of the patient, as well as the severity of their problem. For them, almost all alopecia treatments are aimed at preventing the progression of alopecia.
Recent studies suggest that treatment with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) can be effective in androgenetic alopecia, being a complementary treatment that can improve alopecia in patients who already undergo maintenance treatment for their alopecia (finasteride in men and minoxidil in women).
PRP is a fraction of blood that is obtained by centrifuging the patient’s blood. Platelets are rich in growth factors that can stimulate and enhance hair growth. For this, it is necessary to carry out an extraction of blood from the patient and, after a specific processing, it is infiltrated into the scalp through small infiltrations.
It is a relatively simple procedure that is practiced in the same consultation. Side effects are usually mild when dealing with the patient’s own blood, except for the possible appearance of minor discomfort on the scalp or a bruise..
