PRP for Crown and Vertex Thinning Cost in Korea

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is widely used in Korea to treat crown and vertex thinning—commonly seen in male and female pattern hair loss. This region tends to be more resistant to treatment, but targeted PRP injections help improve microcirculation, follicle nutrition, and regrowth density. Korean clinics often recommend PRP as a standalone protocol or alongside microneedling, LLLT, or topical solutions to restore thickness in the vertex area over multiple sessions.
