Hair loss treatment with PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is the newest trend in hair regrowth and hair loss treatment. PRP therapy for men’s and women’s hair loss is becoming increasingly popular, and when done correctly, it is proving to be effective in reversing hair loss.
Despite the fact that PRP therapy has been around since the 1980s, doctors have only recently begun to use it to treat certain types of alopecia. Many users have reported positive outcomes, and the procedure’s popularity is rapidly growing.
PRP for hair loss is a non-surgical procedure that uses the patient’s own blood stem cells and growth factors to stimulate the growth of hair from dormant or miniaturized hair follicles. The patient’s blood is first drawn into a 20-22cc specialized tube, which is then spun down in a centrifuge for 15 minutes.
The platelets will be separated from the rest of the blood in the centrifuge. Plasma, which has been separated from white and red blood cells, is the final product. After that, the plasma is set aside, allowing the platelets to fall out of suspension and collect at the tube’s bottom.
Platelet Rich Plasma, or PRP, is a denser area of platelets in plasma. This area will typically have a 3 – 5 times concentration of platelets and is the key to any PRP procedure’s success. The platelet-poor plasma, or PPP, is typically collected from the tube’s top and discarded; however, in some cases, it is saved for micro-needling treatment after PRP injection.
The platelet-rich plasma then is injected back into the scalp using one of two procedures:
Subdermal: PRP is injected into the subcutaneous fat layer of the scalp using a longer needle with fewer injections; or,
Dermal: PRP is injected into the scalp into the dermal layer using a shorter needle and a higher number of injections.
Why PRP Has Shown Results for Hair Loss Treatment
Platelet-rich plasma has approximately five times the number of platelets found in ordinary blood. These platelets have:
- Platelet-derived growth factor
- Transforming growth factor
- Insulin-like growth factor 1
- Vascular endothelial growth factor
- Keratinocyte growth factor
All of the above have a positive effect on hair growth. Platelets promote wound healing and cellular repair, and when injected into the scalp, they appear to be able to repair hair loss.
