PRP hair restoration, also known as platelet-rich plasma therapy, is a non-surgical procedure that uses the patient's own blood to stimulate hair growth. The procedure involves drawing a small amount of blood from the patient, which is then processed to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the rest of the blood. The platelet-rich plasma is then injected into the scalp in areas where hair thinning or hair loss has occurred.
Platelets contain growth factors that play a role in tissue repair and regeneration. When injected into the scalp, these growth factors promote the growth of new hair follicles, improve the health of existing hair follicles, and increase hair thickness and density.
PRP hair restoration is a relatively safe and minimally invasive procedure that can be performed in a clinic setting. It is often used as a complementary treatment alongside other hair restoration methods, such as medications or hair transplant surgery. Multiple sessions may be required to achieve optimal results, and the effectiveness of PRP therapy can vary from person to person.
