The Medical Science Behind PRP Therapy for Hair Loss

Hair loss and thinning can significantly impact self-confidence. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy has emerged as one of the most effective non-surgical treatments for androgenetic alopecia and general hair shedding.

What is PRP?

PRP is a natural biological therapy derived from your own blood. Blood contains plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Platelets are rich in essential growth factors (PDGF, VEGF, TGF-beta) that trigger tissue repair and cellular regeneration.

The Treatment Process:

1. Blood Sample: A small sample of blood is drawn in our clinical setting.
2. Centrifugation: The blood is spun in a specialized centrifuge to isolate concentrated platelet-rich plasma from other components.
3. Targeted Micro-Injection: The concentrated plasma is injected directly into thinning areas of the scalp at the hair root level.

Results & Expectations:

Over 4 to 6 sessions, PRP stimulates dormant hair follicles to re-enter the active growth phase (anagen phase), reducing hair shedding and increasing hair shaft diameter and density.
