Hair Platelet Rich Plasma
Hair Platelet Rich Plasma
Hair Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), also known as PRP therapy for hair loss, is a medical treatment that utilizes the patient's own blood to promote hair growth and improve hair density.
Here's how it typically works:
-
Blood Collection: A small amount of blood is drawn from the patient's arm, similar to a routine blood test.
-
Centrifugation: The collected blood is then placed in a centrifuge machine, which spins at high speeds to separate the different components of blood.
-
Platelet Separation: The centrifugation process separates the platelets from other blood components, concentrating them into a plasma-rich solution.
-
Injection: The Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is then injected into the scalp at specific locations where hair loss or thinning is occurring.
-
Hair Growth Stimulation: The growth factors and other bioactive proteins present in the platelets promote hair follicle repair, stimulate hair growth, and improve the thickness and quality of existing hair.
PRP therapy is often used as a treatment for various types of hair loss, including male and female pattern baldness, as well as for improving the results of hair transplant procedures. It is considered a minimally invasive procedure with little to no downtime, though multiple sessions may be required to achieve optimal results. Additionally, PRP therapy is generally well-tolerated, as it utilizes the patient's own blood, reducing the risk of adverse reactions or allergies. However, individual results may vary, and it's important to consult with a qualified healthcare provider to determine if PRP therapy is suitable for your specific hair loss concerns.
