What is the appropriate injection depth for PRP for hair loss?

Asked By:saburkhead in New York, NY

I have been researching prp for hair loss and there seems to be no standardized needle length or injection depth for prp. What seems to be the most effective depth for the procedure? It seems if the depth is incorrect, it could damage the hair follicle.
