Frequently Asked Questions
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) hair treatment is a non-invasive hair loss and hair restoration therapy. It involves the extraction of cells rich in proteins from the patient’s blood. The PRP hair treatment begins by drawing a standard amount of blood from the patient. The extracted blood is placed in a centrifuge and spun for a specific period to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the red blood cell and other blood components. The platelet-rich plasma is then isolated and injected into the areas of the scalp affected by hair loss or thinning. It’s a great option for treating androgenetic alopecia (baldness).
Platelet-rich plasma is a blood component with a high concentration of platelets. When injected into hair follicles, the platelets have a high potential to stimulate hair growth factors and often yield visible results within a few months.
The PRP hair treatment procedure can be done easily by a professional, and it’s not time-consuming. From the moment of blood extraction to the point of injecting into the scalp, the procedure takes about 30 minutes.
The amount of PRP hair treatments required is dependent on how severe the hair loss is, the current state of the hair, and the appearance you hope to achieve with the hair treatment. Nevertheless, the typical number of treatments is usually three sessions. After each session, the patients will wait for 4 to 6 weeks before taking the next treatment. After the third session, if more treatment sessions are required, the patients will be evaluated to determine the state of the hair condition before the commencement of more treatment.
PRP hair treatment is considered a cosmetic procedure; hence it’s not covered by health insurance plans. However, you can make inquiries about the details of your insurance coverage from your insurance company.
After a PRP treatment, there’s usually little or no downtime needed; this means the patients can get back to normal daily activities quickly after the treatment. However, your doctor should educate you on the things to avoid after receiving your PRP treatment. Most times, you’ll be advised to avoid washing your hair on the day you receive PRP treatment, but you can start washing your hair on the second day.
In addition, it’s also advisable to stay away from exercising, smoking, and alcohol on the day you receive treatment.
PRP hair treatment is an effective treatment for combating various types of hair loss, such as androgenetic alopecia (loss of hair around the center of the head and the front of the head) and alopecia areata (hair loss all over the scalp in various patches).
PRP hair treatment is considered an effective treatment for hair loss all over the scalp.
The time frame for seeing notable results after PRP hair treatment is between 5 to 7 months. This time varies due to the nature and cause of the hair loss; nonetheless, you should expect some level of hair thickness in a few months.
Several studies have been conducted on PRP hair treatment to note the adverse effects of the therapy. The most common side effect of the therapy is mild discomfort in the injection site, which wears off easily. Also, PRP hair treatment involves the use of the patient’s blood; hence it’s not advisable for anyone currently on any form of blood thinner.
The PRP procedure involves the use of injection on the affected area of the scalp. Before the procedure begins, the doctor will apply a numbing cream on the surface of the scalp to reduce the sensation felt during the treatment. The pain associated with PRP hair treatment is often mild and fades off quickly.
