Trichology is the scientific study of the hair and scalp. This specialized dermatology field encompasses various aspects, including the diagnosis and treatment of hair and scalp disorders. Experts in trichology, known as trichologists, deal with conditions such as hair loss, hair thinning, scalp psoriasis, dandruff, and alopecia areata, among others.
The Institute of Trichologists was founded in 1902. The first journal for the field, International Journal of Trichology, was founded in 2009.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a treatment that utilizes components of a patient’s own blood to promote healing and encourage hair growth in conditions such as androgenetic alopecia, commonly known as male or female pattern baldness. PRP therapy involves injecting concentrated platelets, which contain growth factors, into the scalp to stimulate hair follicles. However, the effectiveness of PRP therapy can be significantly diminished in individuals with high levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT).
The efficacy of PRP therapy is highly variable and often inconsistent due to the differences in preparation methods. However, this process has no standardized procedure, leading to variations in platelet concentration and quality across different treatments.
