Although there are a number of methods available to treat hair loss, such as surgery, these options can be costly and may not be suitable for everyone. Fortunately, there’s a new treatment option that is less invasive and more affordable; PRP.
WHAT IS PRP ?
PRP which is short for 'Platelet rich plasma' is a treatment whereby a small amount of patient’s blood is collected in a sterile tube and then separated from red blood cells and injected through a special needles in the dermal layer of the scalp. This helps to stimulate hair growth and can also improve the thickness and quality of your existing hair. PRP therapy is a safe and effective treatment option with minimal side effects.
HOW DOES PRP WORK ?
Platelet Rich Plasma therapy for hair restoration in London works by utilising the nutrients in your blood to stimulate hair growth.
A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm. The blood is then placed in a centrifuge, which is a machine that spins the blood at high speeds in order to separate the different components.
The separated blood components include red blood cells, white blood cells, plasma, and platelets. The platelets are then injected into the scalp where they release Growth Factors that initiate a repair process and promote cell regeneration.
This regenerative process helps to stimulate new hair growth as well as improve the quality of your existing hair.
It is recommended to start with 3 sessions of treatment 3-4 weeks apart.
