PRP Hair loss treatment
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is phenomenal for Hair Loss & hair regrowth treatment. It is a non-surgical procedure that utilizes the patient’s blood to trigger the growth of hair from hair follicles. Platelet Rich Plasma or PRP is a revolutionary new treatment for hair loss.
The PRP technique utilizes one’s own ‘platelet-rich plasma’ to stimulate dormant hair follicles and encourage them to regrow again.
Simply put, blood is drawn from your body, processed to create a “platelet-rich plasma” and then re-injected into your scalp. The PRP has lots of good growth factors that stimulate hair growth.
PRP injections are prepared by taking anywhere from one to a few tubes of your own blood and running it through a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets. These activated platelets are then injected directly into your injured or diseased body tissue. This releases growth factors that stimulate and increase the number of reparative cells your body produces.
PRP is prepared by taking patients blood sample, which is treated in a centrifuge and specially processed to extract platelet rich plasma that is rich in growth factors essential for hair growth. The growth factors in the platelet rich plasma stimulate the stem cells located in the hair follicle. The primary purpose of using PRP is to stimulate inactive or newly implanted hair follicles into an active growth phase. The miniaturized hair follicles become healthier and larger, producing more thick hair. PRP activates follicular stem cells.
