PRP Hair Therapy
A treatment that uses your own blood's growth factors to stimulate hair follicles and reduce hair thinning.
What is PRP Hair Therapy?
PRP hair therapy uses a concentrated preparation of platelets from your own blood, containing growth factors known to stimulate hair follicle activity, injected directly into areas of the scalp experiencing thinning. A small blood sample is drawn and processed to separate the platelet-rich plasma, which is then injected across the treatment area using a fine needle. Because the treatment uses your own blood, allergic reaction risk is minimal. A series of sessions, typically three to six spaced a month apart, is generally recommended for best results.
Why is this procedure performed?
- Early to moderate hair thinning
- A desire to stimulate natural hair growth
- Complementing other hair restoration treatments, such as transplant surgery
- A preference for a treatment using your own biological material
- Hereditary or early-stage hair loss
How does this procedure help?
PRP hair therapy can stimulate existing hair follicles to produce thicker, healthier hair growth, particularly effective for early to moderate thinning. Because it uses your body's own growth factors, many patients appreciate this as a natural approach to hair restoration. Results develop gradually over several months, with maintenance sessions helping sustain the improvement over time.
