What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy? ✨

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

PRP therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses a concentration of your own blood platelets to stimulate hair growth. After drawing a small amount of blood, it’s processed in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma. This plasma—rich in growth factors—is then injected into the scalp to nourish hair follicles, improve thickness, and reduce hair loss.

Often used in combination with FUE, FUT, or DHI hair transplants, PRP can also work as a standalone therapy for those in early stages of hair thinning.


PRP Therapy Ideal Candidates ✅

PRP is especially effective for patients who:

  • Are in the early stages of hair thinning
  • Experience androgenetic alopecia (male/female pattern hair loss)
  • Want a non-surgical, low-risk treatment
  • Seek a natural method to support hair growth
  • Are looking to improve results after a hair transplant

🧴 It’s less effective in completely bald areas or where follicles are no longer viable.


PRP Therapy Procedure Details 📋

Here’s how a typical PRP hair treatment session works:

  1. Blood Draw: A small amount (10–30ml) of blood is taken from your arm.
  2. Centrifugation: The blood is spun in a machine to separate the platelet-rich plasma.
  3. Preparation: The PRP is loaded into fine needles or micro-needling tools.
  4. Injection: PRP is carefully injected into targeted scalp areas to reach the follicle root.
  5. Aftercare: You’ll receive instructions to care for the scalp and support healing.

🕒 A single session takes about 45–60 minutes. Most patients need 3–6 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, for optimal results.
