- Abstract
Androgenic alopecia is a common hair loss disorder caused by genetic and hormonal factors that are characterized by androgen-related progressive thinning of scalp hair in a defined pattern. First-line therapy for androgenic alopecia is topical minoxidil but due to its limited effect platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has become an effective alternative treatment. This case study presents a 35 year old male with androgenic alopecia treated with topical minoxidil for 3 years with minimal results. After 2 applications of PRP treatment with concomitant topical minoxidil and topical finasteride significant regrowth was seen within 3 months. This combined treatment proved significantly more effective in the treatment of androgenic alopecia than topical minoxidil alone in this patient.
