How are Hair and Skin Care Therapies Translating into Incremental Opportunities for Stakeholders?

Due to the several application areas where plasma therapy can be used, especially in cosmetic surgeries, the growth of the market for platelet-rich plasma has remained significant. 

Apart from musculoskeletal conditions, companies in the platelet-rich plasma market are tapping growth opportunities in hair and skin care. Micro-needling, with the help of platelet-rich plasma injections, holds promising potentials to improve skin texture and appearance.
