PRP vs Light-Enhanced PRP for Pattern Hair Loss
Treatments studied
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study compares two types of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections — one is standard PRP, the other is PRP that is 'light-enhanced' with special light exposure — to see which works better for treating hair loss due to male or female pattern baldness. If you're struggling with thinning hair, this trial may help you find a more effective non-surgical option.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two treatments for male pattern hair loss: a special injection made from your own fat cells (called stromal vascular fraction) versus a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection. Both are designed to help regrow hair.
This trial compares two treatments—secretome and platelet-rich plasma (PRP)—to see which helps grow thicker, denser hair in people with genetic hair loss (androgenetic alopecia). It's for adults aged 25 to 59 who have stopped taking certain hair loss medications for at least a month.
This trial tests whether adding exosomes (tiny particles from cells that may help healing) to fractional laser therapy improves hair regrowth in men with male pattern baldness. You will be randomly assigned to get laser on your whole scalp, but only half will also get exosomes applied.
This study tests whether microneedling, a procedure that uses tiny needles to stimulate the scalp, can help treat male pattern baldness. It may help regrow hair in men with moderate to advanced hair loss.
This study tests whether injections of nanofat (tiny fragments of your own fat tissue) can help regrow hair in people with androgenetic alopecia, commonly known as male or female pattern baldness. The treatment may stimulate hair growth in areas where hair is thinning.
This study compares different office-based procedures to treat male pattern hair loss. It may help men who want to try non-surgical options to slow or reverse hair thinning.
