What is PRP?
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is blood plasma containing a high concentration of platelets, which act as the body’s “repairmen” for damaged tissue. These platelets contain vital growth factors and bioactive proteins that initiate connective tissue healing, promote the development of new blood vessels, and stimulate hair growth.
What is PRP Platelet Rich Plasma?
These platelets contain vital growth factors and bioactive proteins that initiate connective tissue healing, promote the development of new blood vessels, and stimulate the follicles. This hair plasma treatment is one of the most effective ways to address hair shedding or hair loss by triggering the body’s natural regenerative processes.
How the Advanced PRP Procedure Works
The entire process at our Harley Street clinic is designed for patient comfort and efficiency, typically taking around 30 minutes. We focus on delivering high-quality platelet rich plasma results through a precise four-step method:
- Blood Collection: A sample of your blood is taken.
- Centrifugation: The blood is placed in a machine that spins at high speed to separate the different types of blood cells.
- Concentration: This 15-minute preparation increases the concentration of platelets and growth factors by up to 500% (five times the normal level).
- Injection: The Consultant disinfects the skin and injects the concentrated plasma directly into the area of hair loss to stimulate the body’s ability to grow hair.
Benefits of PRP for Hair Regrowth
Many patients ask, “Does platelet rich plasma work?” or “Is PRP effective?” Clinical data and our own clinical outcomes suggest that it is highly effective. The primary benefits of PRP include increased hair density, reduced thinning, and a completely natural approach since it uses your own growth factors. It is a preferred hair loss treatment with plasma for those suffering from female patterned hair loss or alopecia areata.
For enhanced results, some patients choose to combine this with exosome therapy or polynucleotides to further stimulate the scalp environment.
Safety, Risks, and “Does PRP Hurt?”
The risk of complications following PRP is rare, but can include:
- Infection at the site of the injection.
- Bruising, bleeding, or skin discolouration.
- Increased inflammation or pain at the site.
- Failure to achieve a successful result or no relief of symptoms.
