WHAT IS PLATELET-RICH PLASMA?

What is PRP?

Blood collection, centrifuge separation and prepared PRP, with an enlarged view of platelets suspended in plasma.

PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. It is a preparation made from your own blood, containing a higher concentration of platelets.

Platelets contain growth factors. In hair care, PRP is injected into selected scalp areas to support existing follicles in people for whom it is suitable.

The goal: support hair growth and density in selected cases of thinning. PRP does not move or create new follicles.

IS IT FOR ME?

Who can have PRP?

  1. 01

    Thinning at the crown

    PRP may be an option for gradual pattern hair loss where there are still hair follicles to treat.

  2. 02

    A widening hair part

    PRP may also be considered for female pattern hair loss. Your dermatologist will check what is causing the thinning.

  3. 03

    Other types of hair loss

    Sudden patches, scalp irritation or heavy shedding need an assessment first. Another treatment may be more suitable.

Three matching examples: crown thinning, a widening central part, and patchy hair loss that needs its cause checked first.

Your dermatologist will also review your health, medicines and scalp before recommending PRP.

YOUR APPOINTMENT, EXPLAINED

How PRP works.

STEP 01

Prepare for your appointment

  • Before your visit

    Share your medical history, medicines and supplements, including anything that affects bleeding. Follow the clinic’s preparation advice; do not stop prescribed medicines on your own.

  • A small blood sample

    Once your treatment plan is agreed, a clinician collects a blood sample using sterile equipment.

STEP 02

How PRP is given

  • Prepare the plasma

    The sample is processed in a centrifuge to separate a platelet-rich portion. Preparation systems can differ.

  • Treat selected areas

    The prepared PRP is injected into the areas chosen during your assessment. Your clinician discusses comfort measures.

  • During the appointment

    Expect blood collection, preparation and scalp injections. Tenderness or a stinging sensation is possible. Confirm the expected visit length and comfort options with your clinic.

STEP 03

Aftercare & follow-up

  • After treatment

    Temporary soreness, swelling or bruising can occur. Follow the instructions you receive about scalp care, washing and exercise. Contact the clinic for worsening pain, spreading redness or fever.

  • Your next review

    PRP is usually considered as a course with follow-up, rather than one instant fix. Agree when to review changes, whether more sessions make sense and how to continue any other hair care.

FAQs

Common questions

Ask us on WhatsApp
01Is PRP the same as a hair transplant?

No. PRP is injected into the scalp around existing follicles. A hair transplant moves follicles from a donor area. These procedures have different purposes and suitability requirements.

02Who may benefit from PRP for hair?

It may be considered for selected people with pattern hair thinning. A dermatologist first checks the cause of your hair loss, scalp health and medical history. Not every kind of shedding needs injections.

03How many PRP sessions will I need?

A course and follow-up may be recommended. The schedule depends on your diagnosis, the preparation used and your response. Ask for an individual plan with review points before beginning.

04When might I notice a change?

Hair changes take time and are assessed over months. Response varies, and some people may not notice the improvement they hope for. Follow-up photographs help your clinician compare changes over time.

05Does PRP hurt, and are there risks?

Scalp injections can be uncomfortable. Soreness, swelling and bruising are possible; bleeding or infection can also occur. Discuss comfort measures and your individual risks before treatment.

06Can PRP be combined with other hair treatments?

Sometimes it is used alongside medical care. Your dermatologist should explain the purpose of each part of the plan, including what to continue and how progress will be reviewed.

07Is PRP suitable during pregnancy or if I take blood thinners?

Tell the clinician before booking a procedure. Pregnancy, medicines and conditions affecting blood or platelets can change the decision. Do not stop any prescribed medicine without advice from the prescribing clinician.
