In recent years, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been used in plastic surgery, dermatology, and other treatment procedures worldwide. Since the number of scientific writings has been significantly increasing, it is challenging to generate a manual compilation and systematic review of PRP's therapeutic applications in dermatology and plastic surgeries. This study aimed to make a bibliometric analysis of the literature in the field and evaluate research hotspots and frontiers in this field in the past 20 years.
Using the Academic Search Premier and ScienceDirect defined search terms, we searched the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) and Scopus databases. All data were analyzed using CiteSpace 5.8.R3 and VOSviewer, including countries, institutions, authors, keywords, cited authors, cited journals, cited references, discovered research hotspots, and frontiers.
A total of 1931 studies were retrieved. The number of publications on PRP application in dermatology and plastic surgeries showed a yearly increase. The United States was the most significant contributor to this field, while Italy's contribution was noteworthy. The journal with the highest number of relevant articles in dermatology and plastic surgery included the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology. However, the Wound Repair and Regeneration and International Journal of Molecular Sciences were the leading journals that should be paid attention to in the future. Author Anitua E from the Tor Vergata University of Rome published the most publications in this field. In the keyword co-occurrence analysis, all keywords were divided into six clusters, and the most common one in recent years was "PRP for facial beauty." Facial rejuvenation, scar, and alopecia were the main hotspots and research trends in this field.
Based on the current global trends, the use of PRP in cosmetics and skin care is receiving increasing attention from researchers and clinicians. Recently, an increasing number of articles on PRP's application in skin tissue repair have been published in the United States and Italy. The number of studies on hair loss, facial rejuvenation, and scar management is increasing, suggesting that these subjects may become research hotspots for PRP in dermatology and cosmetic surgeries in recent years.
近年来，富含血小板的血浆（PRP）已在全球范围内的整形手术、皮肤科等治疗领域中得到应用。由于科学文献数量显著增加，手动编制和系统综述 PRP 在皮肤科和整形手术中的治疗应用具有挑战性。本研究旨在对该领域的文献进行计量分析，并评估过去 20 年来该领域的研究热点和前沿。
使用 Academic Search Premier 和 ScienceDirect 定义的搜索词，我们在 Web of Science Core Collection（WoSCC）和 Scopus 数据库中进行了搜索。使用 CiteSpace 5.8.R3 和 VOSviewer 分析所有数据，包括国家、机构、作者、关键词、被引作者、被引期刊、被引参考文献、发现的研究热点和前沿。
共检索到 1931 项研究。PRP 在皮肤科和整形手术中的应用文献数量呈逐年增加趋势。美国是该领域的最大贡献者，而意大利的贡献也不容忽视。在皮肤科和整形手术中发表相关文章数量最多的期刊是《美容皮肤科杂志》。然而，未来应关注《伤口修复与再生》和《国际分子科学杂志》等主要期刊。来自罗马 Tor Vergata 大学的 Anitua E 是该领域发表文章最多的作者。在关键词共现分析中，所有关键词分为六个聚类，近年来最常见的是“PRP 用于面部美容”。面部年轻化、瘢痕和脱发是该领域的主要热点和研究趋势。
根据当前的全球趋势，PRP 在化妆品和皮肤护理中的应用越来越受到研究人员和临床医生的关注。最近，美国和意大利发表了越来越多关于 PRP 在皮肤组织修复中应用的文章。关于脱发、面部年轻化和瘢痕管理的研究数量正在增加，这表明这些主题可能成为近年来皮肤科和美容整形手术中 PRP 的研究热点。
