What is PRP?

PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is a nutrient-rich component of your blood that promotes cellular regeneration in areas like hair follicles, joints, and skin. Platelets contain numerous growth factors essential for various cellular functions and tissue healing, which is why PRP has become a popular option for hair restoration.

How Does PRP Work for Hair Restoration?

The main goal of PRP treatment is to stimulate inactive hair follicles to enter an active growth phase. PRP injections in the scalp support new and existing hair follicles by delivering growth factors such as:

  • Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF): Supports blood vessel growth and cell regeneration.
  • Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF): Promotes formation of new blood vessels.
  • Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 (FGF-2): Encourages blood vessel development and tissue repair.
  • Transforming Growth Factor-Beta (TGF-β): Involved in cell matrix formation and bone metabolism.
  • Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF): Stimulates collagen growth and blood vessel formation.
  • Insulin-Like Growth Factor (IGF): Regulates physiological functions in many cell types.

PRP Hair Restoration Treatment Methods

PRP can be introduced into the scalp using two common techniques:

  • Microneedling: Creates tiny micro-injuries on the scalp, allowing topical PRP to penetrate and stimulate healing.
  • Direct Injections: PRP is injected directly into thinning areas of the scalp after numbing the skin. Blood is drawn and processed via centrifuge to separate platelets, which are then injected precisely across the targeted zones.

Duration of PRP Treatment

The entire process takes under 30 minutes: a quick blood draw, centrifugation during which the scalp is numbed, followed by carefully spaced injections across the treatment area.

Post-Treatment Expectations

There is typically no downtime after PRP therapy. Because the injections trigger an inflammatory healing response, patients are advised to avoid anti-inflammatory medications immediately after treatment. Our staff will guide you on managing any mild discomfort.

When Will You See Results?

Consistency is key. Treatments are usually scheduled monthly over several months. Noticeable improvements often begin within 2–3 months, with ongoing treatments every 3 to 6 months to maintain results. Early benefits include reduced hair shedding, followed by increased hair thickness and length.

Advantages of PRP Therapy

PRP is a safe, natural, and effective treatment since it uses your own blood. It can be used alone or alongside other hair loss treatments, including medications like Minoxidil or hair transplant surgery. PRP is especially suitable for androgenic alopecia on the crown and hairline, as well as diffuse thinning in both men and women.

Risks and Side Effects

PRP treatment carries minimal risk. Common side effects include mild discomfort at injection sites, itching, swelling, or dry scalp.
