Trichoscopic assessments regarding hair density\/quantity and mean hair diameter were performed at baseline and follow\u2010up. Clinical efficacy of global photography and patient satisfaction were conducted to verify the therapeutic efficacy of the treatment, and the occurrence of adverse reactions was recorded.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We detected a significant increase in all patients in hair density and quantity after PRP treatment (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.05), and there was no significant difference in mean hair diameter.
