Platelet-Rich Plasma - PRP hair therapy is an advanced, non-surgical hair restoration treatment
that harnesses the power of your own blood to stimulate natural hair growth. This cutting-edge procedure
is widely recognised for its ability to strengthen hair follicles, slow hair thinning, and promote new hair regrowth.
PRP for hair loss is a well-established treatment in medicine, dental and orthopaedic surgery and
uses the power of your own body to stimulates collagen production, helping cells regenerate and boosting
the skin's natural repairing process. For a number of years, it has also been used to stimulate hair growth.
PRP hair growth treatment is made from your own blood. This means that there are no chemicals/toxins or foreign bodies involved in the treatment - so, if you are searching for a more natural treatment with no risk of 'rejection' - then there is no better treatment than PRP.
Platelet-rich plasma treatment involves removing a small amount of your blood
(just like you having blood taken at your GP) which is then placed in a special
centrifuge machine to extract and concentrate the serums in your blood - i.e. the
PRP. We then carefully and gently micro-inject the PRP serum back into your scalp where
it starts to do its work.
In summary, PRP therapy involves a three-step process:
1. Blood Draw: A small sample of your blood is taken.
2. Centrifugation: The sample is spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma.
3. Injection: The concentrated PRP is injected into the scalp, targeting areas of hair
thinning to stimulate follicle regeneration and hair growth.
The PRP hair injections serum is delivered into the scalp, stimulating follicles and
improving the thickness of the hairs in each follicle, resulting in thicker, healthier-looking
hair. PRP uses the healing and regenerating powers of your own body so unlike some drug-based
treatments there is no risk of side-effects such as loss of libido and other unwanted effects.
PRP scalp treatment works on active follicles so it is a preventative treatment, intended to
slow the rate of hair loss and thinness, so it is generally better to commence treatment when
you first start to notice a problem - the sooner you start the better. Please note however,
that it is not a treatment for baldness, but it can help improve the results of hair transplants too.

PRP has been used in hair restoration surgery since 2004, and its role is expanding as the benefits become better understood. The use of PRP has also been used in a number of other branches of medicine and surgery so has a good safety and results profile. It has been used by professional athletes and sports men and women to accelerate the healing process in the body, enabling them to return more quickly to competition.
It is extremely safe, since you are the donor there is therefore no chance of rejection.
The treatment can also be used in combination with other treatments such as
polynucleotides, Exosomes, Mesotherapy and medications as there is a synergistic
effect. We also offer these treatments, and
Nurse Luis will be able to advice you on a treatment plan suited to your own unique
circumstances.
Most patients generally see a reduction in the shedding of hair in around 4 to 6 weeks.
Between 6 to 8 weeks, you will generally start to see an improvement in your hair's character
and feel. An increase in hair density should star to show between 4 to 6 months and improvements
include your hair becoming shinier, more vibrant and less brittle will result.
We do find that younger, healthier patients with a good diet and who have just started to
experience hair loss will see the best results and patients with moderate and advanced hair loss
usually see a reduction or cessation, a smaller percentage see hair thickening.
