PRP Therapy for Skin Rejuvenation and Hair Restoration
A natural regenerative treatment using your own platelet-rich plasma to support skin quality and selected hair loss programs.
PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. It is prepared from the patient’s own blood and contains platelets that release growth factors. In dermatology and aesthetic medicine, PRP may support skin rejuvenation, post-procedure healing and selected hair restoration plans.
How PRP Is Prepared
A small amount of blood is taken from the patient. It is processed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate platelet-rich plasma. The PRP is then injected into the skin or scalp depending on the treatment goal.
PRP for Skin Rejuvenation
For the face, PRP may improve skin freshness, texture, mild fine lines and recovery after procedures such as microneedling or laser. It is commonly used as part of a combination plan rather than as a single miracle treatment.
PRP for Hair Loss
PRP can be helpful for early or moderate hair thinning when hair follicles are still active. It may support thicker-looking hair, improve scalp quality and slow progression in selected patients. In fully bald areas, PRP cannot create new follicles; hair transplantation may be needed.
Number of Sessions
Many patients need several sessions, commonly spaced about one month apart, followed by maintenance depending on diagnosis and response. The doctor will adjust the protocol according to hair loss type, age, severity and medical history.
Important Expectation
PRP is not a replacement for diagnosis. Hair loss may be caused by genetics, stress, iron deficiency, thyroid disease, vitamin D deficiency, PCOS, postpartum changes or scalp disease. The cause must be evaluated first.
Safety
Since PRP comes from the patient’s own blood, allergy risk is low. Mild pain, swelling, bruising or tenderness may occur. Sterile technique, correct preparation and proper injection depth are important for safety and results.
