How Does PRP Work for Hair Restoration?

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) hair restoration works by stimulating inactive hair follicles, encouraging them to return to an active growth phase. This treatment uses your body’s natural healing properties to promote hair regrowth. Platelet cells contain powerful growth factors that support tissue repair, cellular regeneration, and stem cell activation around the hair follicles. By injecting PRP into the scalp, the growth factors are released, enhancing the health of hair follicles and encouraging thicker, fuller hair growth.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

The number of treatments depends on your hair’s condition. We typically recommend starting with 3-4 treatments spaced four weeks apart. Once you achieve your desired results, maintenance sessions 2-3 times per year can help preserve hair health and growth.

How long is the treatment?

PRP Scalp treatments usually take about 45 minutes. Blood collection and PRP preparation take approximately 10-15 minutes, while the injections themselves take 5-15 minutes, depending on your individual needs.

Do You Apply Numbing Cream for PRP Scalp Treatment?

No, we don’t use numbing cream. However, your provider can administer a scalp anesthesia block to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.

How Long Do PRP Scalp Treatment Results Last?

Results vary from person to person, but many patients experience hair regrowth that lasts a year or more. To maintain optimal hair health, follow-up treatments 2-3 times per year are recommended.

What Should I Avoid After My Treatment?

For at least 48 hours post-treatment, avoid saunas, steam rooms, intense exercise, sun exposure, and swimming. Additionally, avoid alcohol, caffeine, and smoking for three days, and refrain from using any hair products for at least six hours after your session.

How Long Does It Take for Hair to Grow After PRP?

Hair growth from PRP treatment takes time. New growth is typically noticeable within 1-3 months, with the most significant results appearing after 4 months or later.

Will I Experience Any Side Effects?

Most patients experience minimal side effects. Some may notice mild soreness or swelling around the injection sites, but these symptoms typically resolve within 24 hours.
