May 2016 in “Portuguese National Funding Agency for Science, Research and Technology (RCAAP Project by FCT)” January 2020 in “Journal of translational science” January 2026 in “Journal of Cosmetics Dermatological Sciences and Applications” This narrative review assesses the efficacy and safety of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for hair restoration, focusing on androgenetic alopecia, alopecia areata, and telogen effluvium. Analyzing 52 studies from 2020 to 2026, PRP showed promising results with response rates of 70%-86.7% for androgenetic alopecia, 56.7%-78.6% for alopecia areata, and 65%-75% for telogen effluvium. Adverse effects were mild, mainly injection-site pain and erythema, with high patient satisfaction. Despite these positive outcomes, variations in study design and treatment protocols hinder definitive conclusions, highlighting the need for further research to establish standardized guidelines.
