Abstract

Platelet rich plasma (PRP) therapies in medicine has become increasing popular during the last decade. The interest in in the application of PRP in dermatology and cosmetology has increased recently in different applications such as alopecia, skin rejuvenation, wound healing, scar revision, and tissue regeneration. PRP is an autologous blood product obtained from the blood of the patients. The detailed knowledge about PRP should help clinicians better understand this therapy. In this view, the current review was done for a better understanding of what pathologies can be corrected with PRP.
