PRP for Hair Restoration — What It Is, How It’s Done, and Who It Benefits

Hair thinning and hair loss can affect confidence at any age. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy has emerged as an innovative, natural solution to stimulate hair growth and restore thickness. But what exactly is PRP for the scalp, how is it performed, and who can benefit?

What is PRP for Hair?
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma. It’s a treatment where a small sample of your blood is drawn, processed to concentrate the platelets, and then injected into the scalp. Platelets are rich in growth factors that can stimulate hair follicles, encouraging new growth and improving hair density.

How is the PRP Procedure Done?
1️⃣ A blood draw is performed, typically from your arm.
2️⃣ The blood is spun in a centrifuge to separate the plasma rich in platelets.
3️⃣ The PRP is carefully injected into areas of the scalp where thinning or hair loss is occurring.
The entire procedure usually takes about 45–60 minutes and has minimal downtime.

Who Benefits from PRP for Hair Loss?

  • Men and women experiencing androgenic alopecia (genetic hair thinning).

  • Individuals noticing hair thinning due to stress or hormonal changes.

  • Those seeking a non-surgical, natural option for hair restoration.

  • PRP can also be a great option to maintain results after a hair transplant.

PRP therapy is safe, uses your own natural growth factors, and has become one of the most effective solutions for promoting fuller, healthier hair.
