NCT ID NCT04018859
First seen Jul 01, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026
Summary
This study investigates whether injecting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from a person's own blood can improve mild to moderate eyebrow thinning. Participants receive either PRP or saline injections into the eyebrows, and changes are tracked through photographs over nine months. The trial is a small pilot study to see if this approach is feasible and worth further research.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
platelet-rich plasma (PRP)
What this could lead to
If PRP works, it could offer a natural, minimally invasive option for people with thinning eyebrows.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study with only 11 participants, so results may not apply broadly. PRP effects can vary, and saline injections may show similar improvement.
