PRP Therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy)

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy is a revolutionary, minimally invasive treatment that uses your own blood to stimulate hair growth and enhance the health of your scalp. PRP Therapy has been proven to be one of the most effective treatments for hair loss and thinning hair, offering a safe, autologous and long-lasting solution for both men and women.

Facts about PRP Therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy)

PRP Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that involves drawing 10-20ml of blood from your body, processing it in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelet-rich plasma, and then re-injecting it into your scalp. The plasma is rich in growth factors and bioactive proteins, which help stimulate hair follicles, regenerate scalp tissue, and promote new hair growth.

PRP is a concentration of your own platelets and growth factors which are essential for healing, and when injected into the scalp, they promote the activation of dormant hair follicles, leading to thicker, healthier hair. PRP Therapy can be used to treat androgenetic alopecia, female pattern baldness, and other types of hair loss.

Centrifugation

The blood sample is placed into a centrifuge, which spins the blood at high speed to separate the blood components. The centrifuge isolates the platelet-rich plasma from the red blood cells and other components, concentrating the growth factors and proteins.

Step 4

Injection into the Scalp

The PRP is then injected into the scalp using fine needles, targeting areas where hair thinning or loss is present. The procedure is relatively quick and typically takes 30-45 minutes.

Step 5

Post-Treatment Care

After the procedure, you can resume your daily activities immediately. There is no downtime, though you may experience some mild swelling or tenderness at the injection sites, which typically resolves within a day or two.
