Brief Summary
This research is a preliminary, randomized, double blind clinical trial, which will examine the differences in PRP preparation methods, a single-spin centrifugation of 3000 rpm in 15 minutes compared to a double-spin centrifugation of 1500 rpm in 6 minutes followed by 2500 rpm in 15 minutes, on the results of Thrombocyte Concentration and Clinical Improvement of Androgenetic Alopecia.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Thrombocyte Count in PRP and Whole Blood
We assessed the increase in PRP platelet levels by assessing baseline platelets (using whole blood) and assessing platelet levels in PRP preparations and then calculating multiples. platelet valuie units to be used is (/μL)
6 weeks
Clinical Improvement of Androgenetic Alopecia
We assessed the assessment of clinical improvement in androgenetic alopecia using trichoscopy and trichoscan examination on week 0, 2, 4, and 6. On trichoscopic examination we assessed hair color, hair diameter diversity, vellus hair, and dots. Whereas on trichoscan examination we assessed hair count, hair diameter (mm), hair density (/cm2), hair rate (%) in vellus hair, terminal, anagen and telogen phases and assessed hair mean thickness (mm/cm2) and mean length (mm) and average hair per unit.
6 weeks
Study Arms (2)
Single Spin Group
OTHERCurrently, the standard operating procedures for PRP preparation in dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo National General Hospital is by performing a single-spin centrifugation at 3000 rpm for 15 minutes. This first group will received PRP treatment by single-spin centrifugation at 3000 rpm in 15 minutes in addition to topical minoxidil (5%)
Double Spin Group
ACTIVE COMPARATORThis group will received double-spin centrifugation PRP treatment at 1500 rpm in 6 minutes and continued at 2500 rpm in 15 minutes in addition to topical minoxidil (5%)
Interventions
each subject will be treated with 3x PRP injections on the scalp with 2 weeks interval in addition to daily minoxidil administration.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Met the criteria of androgenic alopecia (Hamilton Norwood grade III-IV)
- Men between ages 25-59 years old
- Have stopped taking topical anti-androgen or minoxidil for at least one month, or oral anti-androgen or minoxidil for at least three months
You may not qualify if:
- alopecia of any other type
- subject with a history of keloid or blood coagulation disorders underwent anticoagulant therapy
- subjects on Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID) medications in seven days prior to the study
- subjects who had hair treatment using growth factors, including PRP and microneedling within at least six months prior to the study.
