How high is the required platelet count for PRP for hair loss?

Thank you for your question regarding the use of PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) for hair loss. Generally, a platelet count of 175,000 falls within the normal range, as typical counts range from 150,000 to 450,000 platelets per microliter of blood. While higher platelet counts might enhance the efficacy of PRP due to a greater concentration of growth factors, having a normal platelet count does not necessarily mean PRP will be ineffective.

The success of PRP therapy can also depend on other factors, such as the overall health of your scalp, the quality of your hair follicles, and how well your body responds to the treatment. It's important to have a detailed discussion with your dermatologist or hair restoration specialist about your specific case. They can assess your overall health and hair restoration goals to determine if PRP is a suitable option for you.

I hope this information is helpful as you consider your options.
