PRP Hair Restoration Therapy
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) hair therapy is an advanced regenerative treatment that uses your body’s own healing potential to combat hair thinning and stimulate new hair growth. It involves drawing a small sample of your own blood, processing it to extract platelet-rich plasma, and injecting it directly into areas of the scalp where hair is thinning.
Widely used in dermatology, orthopedics, and aesthetic medicine, this so-called “vampire treatment” is now recognized as one of the most effective non-surgical methods for treating hair loss in both men and women.
What to Expect During the Procedure
- ● Preparation: Approximately 30 ml of venous blood is drawn and placed in a centrifuge to isolate the plasma enriched with platelets.
● Anesthesia: A local anesthetic is applied to the scalp to ensure minimal discomfort. The scalp is a sensitive area, and anesthetic allows the practitioner to perform more microinjections without causing pain.
● Injection and microneedling: Using ultra-fine needles, the PRP is carefully injected into the targeted areas of the scalp. For enhanced results, microneedling may also be used to promote deeper absorption of the plasma and activate the skin’s healing response.
● Duration and recovery: The entire session lasts up to 60 minutes, with the blood preparation process taking around 15–20 minutes. Most patients resume normal activities immediately. Mild redness, swelling, or tenderness can occur but typically subsides within 2–3 days.
Benefits of PRP Therapy
PRP therapy is an effective way to restore hair strength, thickness, and density, while also slowing down or even halting active hair loss. Platelets are naturally rich in growth factors which activate the body’s healing and regenerative processes, helping to repair damaged or weakened hair follicles.
As a result, the treatment reduces excessive shedding, supports the growth of stronger and denser hair, and improves the overall health of the scalp.
Many patients begin to notice an improvement in hair texture and a reduction in shedding within just 2 to 4 weeks. As the treatment progresses, visible regrowth and fuller hair typically appear within 3 to 6 months.
For long-lasting benefits, it is generally recommended to undergo a course of 3 to 4 treatments spaced approximately 4 to 6 weeks apart. After the initial series, maintenance sessions every 6 to 12 months can help sustain and enhance the results.
Ideal Candidates for PRP Hair Therapy
PRP is most effective in individuals who:
● Are in the early stages of hair thinning.
● Still have functioning hair follicles.
● Are experiencing diffuse hair loss or specific forms of alopecia (e.g. androgenetic alopecia, alopecia areata, scarring alopecia).
● Experience hair thinning due to stress, inflammation, or hormonal changes.
PRP is not recommended for individuals with complete baldness or extensively damaged follicles, as these may not respond to growth factor stimulation.
