Twenty male patients with AGA, aged 18\u201045\u00a0years with modified Norwood\u2010Hamilton classification grade II\u2010VI were included in this study. Patients were given platelet\u2010rich plasma injections every 3\u00a0week for a period of 3\u00a0months. Dermoscopy was performed with 10 x magnifications in polarized mode at baseline and at 3\u00a0months from the baseline and photographs were taken. Patients were evaluated based on following dermoscopic findings (a) hair count, (b) hair density, (c) hair diameter diversity, perifollicular pigmentation, yellow dots, multi\u2010hair follicular units, honeycomb pigment pattern and white dots, (d) patient's hair growth assessment score.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Posttherapy, patients showed significant improvement in hair count (27.4%), hair diversity (84.2%), increase in number of thick, terminals hairs, reduction in yellow dots (60%), perifollicular pigmentation (92.3%) was appreciated.
