The PRP Treatment

About PRP

PRP therapy is a new non-surgical therapeutic option for natural hair growth and stimulation. We offer PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatment as an innovative scientifically based natural non-surgical hair restoration therapy. While PRP is in the early stages of scientific research in hair restoration, PRP therapy has established itself in Europe and the USA to be a safe and effective medical treatment modality in other specialty fields such as oral surgery, neurosurgery, plastic and cosmetic surgery, sports medicine and orthopedics. In the field of hair restoration, existing evidence demonstrates PRP therapy as a promising treatment option to promote hair growth.

The primary purpose of using PRP in hair restoration is to stimulate inactive or newly implanted hair follicles into an active growth phase. While individual results vary and no guarantees of success can be made, preliminary studies indicate many patients respond to PRP therapy. Larger clinical studies are pending but the current medical literature contains numerous positive results.

The Procedure

Blood is drawn in our clinic as though you are having routine blood testing. The blood is spun in a centrifuge and the PRP is separated and removed from the rest of the blood. Under a topical anesthesia, a special micro needling roller device used to stimulate the dermis of the scalp. The highly concentrated platelet rich plasma (PRP) is injected into the scalp, as the roller creates tiny wound.

The decision to use PRP is a personal decision and should be made after careful research, consideration and consultation with a physician. PRP is safe and natural because the procedure concentrates the good cells from your own body directly back into the area where it is needed. There is absolutely no chance of getting a blood infection from another human being. PRP involves using your own cells and it will not be rejected by your immune system.

PRP should not be considered a 'cure' for hair loss and no guarantee can be made about its individual effectiveness. The following persons are not suitable for PRP treatment:
patients with history of heavy smoking, drug and alcohol use, medical diagnosis such as platelet dysfunction syndromes, thrombocytopenia, hypofibrinogenemia, hemodynamic instability, sepsis, acute and chronic Infections, chronic liver disease, anti-coagulation therapy, chronic skin diseases or cancer, metabolic and systemic disorders.
