Hair growth plasma treatment, commonly known as Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, is a non-surgical method that uses a patient’s own blood to stimulate hair regrowth. The process involves drawing a small amount of blood, concentrating the platelets through centrifugation, and injecting the platelet-rich plasma into areas of thinning hair. This therapy encourages dormant hair follicles to re-enter the growth phase, enhancing hair density, thickness, and overall scalp health.
PRP therapy is safe and minimally invasive since it uses the patient’s own blood, which significantly reduces the risk of allergic reactions or infections. In some cases, micro-needling is used to improve absorption of the growth factors into the scalp. The treatment is particularly effective for individuals in the early stages of hair loss and can lead to stronger, thicker hair over multiple sessions. Mild discomfort or tenderness at the injection sites may occur but typically resolves within a few days.
