PRP Hair Treatment
Treatment
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy for hair loss is an innovative and natural approach to promoting hair growth. The treatment utilizes the patient’s own blood, which is drawn and processed to concentrate the platelets. These platelets, rich in growth factors, are then injected into the scalp where hair thinning or loss is evident. The growth factors in the PRP help to repair and stimulate dormant hair follicles, encouraging new hair growth and improving hair density.
During the Treatment:
The procedure typically takes about 45 to 60 minutes. After drawing a small amount of blood, it is spun in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma. The PRP is then carefully injected into targeted areas of the scalp. Some patients may experience a mild tingling sensation during the injections, but the discomfort is minimal. A numbing cream can be applied to the scalp beforehand to enhance comfort.
After the Treatment:
Following the treatment, it’s normal to experience slight swelling or redness at the injection sites, but these effects usually fade within a day or two. There’s no significant downtime, and patients can resume their regular activities shortly after the procedure. Noticeable improvements in hair growth and thickness typically occur after a few weeks, with the best results observed after completing a series of treatments. Regular maintenance sessions may be recommended to maintain the benefits of the treatment.
