PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Therapy Treatment for Hair Loss can deliver great results when it comes to regrowth. The platelets, one type of blood cells, contain growth factors that can trigger cell proliferation, speed healing and stimulate tissue regeneration in the treated area. When you inject platelet-rich plasma into the scalp, the stem cells in your hair root are awoken. PRP therapy results in hair restoration by stimulating the growth of new hair from previously dormant follicles, strengthening and thickening your existing hairs. When the volume of your hairs is increased, they take up more surface area, covering more of your scalp.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is used for hair treatment because it contains growth factors and proteins that promote hair growth and healing. PRP is derived from the patient’s own blood, which is processed to concentrate the platelets. These platelets release growth factors that can stimulate the hair follicles, improve blood supply to the scalp, and encourage new hair growth. PRP therapy is a natural and minimally invasive option that has shown promising results in treating hair loss.
The PRP treatment process typically takes about 60 minutes. This includes the time needed to draw blood, process it to concentrate the platelets, and then inject the PRP into the target areas. The actual injection process is relatively quick, but preparation and post-treatment care can extend the total time.
The number of PRP treatments needed can vary based on individual goals and the extent of hair loss. Typically, a series of three to four treatments, spaced about four to six weeks apart, is recommended to achieve the best results. Maintenance treatments may also be suggested every six months to a year to sustain hair growth.
The results of PRP hair loss treatments can vary, but many patients start to see improvements within three to six months after the initial series of treatments. The effects can last for about 12 to 18 months, with some individuals requiring maintenance treatments every six to twelve months to sustain the results. The longevity of the results can depend on factors such as the individual’s hair growth cycle, the extent of hair loss, and overall health.
