PRP for Hair Restoration

PRP has been around for several years now and used for several medical conditions. We do not have a solid scientific study that can prove its effectiveness for treatment of male patterend baldness in long term. There has been some recent studies that indicate its temporary effectiveness may be due to the effect of irritation of injecting into the scalp rather than the effect of the PRP by itself.
