What is hair growth enhancement

Hair growth enhancement with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a non-surgical treatment that uses the patient's own blood to promote hair growth. The process involves drawing a small amount of blood, which is then centrifuged to concentrate the platelets. These platelets, rich in growth factors, are injected into the scalp to stimulate hair follicles, improve blood flow, and encourage new hair growth. This treatment is often sought by individuals experiencing hair thinning or early stages of hair loss, offering a natural and minimally invasive solution.

Is PRP for hair for me?

PRP for hair growth enhancement may be suitable for you if you are experiencing hair thinning or early stages of hair loss and are looking for a natural, non-surgical solution. Ideal candidates have not responded well to other hair loss treatments. It is particularly effective for individuals with androgenic alopecia (pattern hair loss).

During the procedure

During the PRP procedure for hair growth enhancement, a small amount of your blood is drawn and placed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other blood components. The concentrated platelets, rich in growth factors, are then injected into the scalp at the level of the hair follicles. The procedure typically takes about an hour, including preparation and recovery time. It is minimally invasive, with little to no downtime, and you can resume normal activities shortly after the treatment.
