PRP
Platelet-rich plasma using your own growth factors.
Overview
A small blood sample is spun to concentrate platelets, which are then injected into skin or scalp to stimulate repair.
What it treats
Hair thinning, skin quality, fine lines and some scarring.
How it works
Concentrated platelets release growth factors that stimulate follicles and fibroblasts.
Who it suits
People with early hair thinning or those preferring an autologous, drug-free option.
What happens on the day
Blood draw, centrifugation, numbing, then a grid of micro-injections across the treatment area.
Recovery
Mild tenderness and swelling for 24 to 48 hours.
Results to expect
Reduced shedding within two to three months, with a course of three sessions and biannual maintenance.
Risks and considerations
Bruising, tenderness, headache after scalp treatment, and rare infection.
