PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) hair restoration treatment uses a concentration of your own blood's growth factors to stimulate hair regrowth. The process involves drawing a blood sample, spinning it in a centrifuge to separate the plasma, and then injecting this growth-factor-rich plasma into the scalp to rejuvenate hair follicles. This treatment can help with thinning hair and improve outcomes after a hair transplant by activating dormant follicles and improving healing.  

    • A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm and placed in a centrifuge. 

    • The centrifuge spins the blood to separate it into its components: red blood cells, platelet-poor plasma, and the platelet-rich plasma (PRP). 

    • The PRP, which is highly concentrated with platelets and growth factors, is carefully extracted. 

    • This concentrated PRP is then injected with a fine needle into the thinning areas of the scalp. 

    • The growth factors in the PRP stimulate inactive hair follicles and encourage new hair growth. 

    • Stimulates hair follicles to promote new growth.

    • Can improve the thickness and vitality of existing hair.

    • Enhances results and recovery time after a hair transplant.

    • Utilizes your body's natural healing properties.

    • Supports new tissue growth and cellular healing. 

    • Procedure:

      A series of treatment sessions is often recommended for best results. 

    • Cost:

      Prices can vary depending on the number of sessions and extent of hair loss, but generally range from approximately £200 to £500 per session in the UK. 

    • Candidates:

      The treatment is often most effective for people experiencing thinning hair rather than complete baldness. 

    • Side effects:

      Mild side effects like scalp itching, swelling, or soreness at the injection sites can occur, but major side effects are rare.
