PRP Hair Restoration – How Effective is the treatment? 

Losing hair in chunks is no joke! More than that, it’s as traumatic for men as it is for women. Whilst it’s natural for hair to fall so that new strands can replace the old ones, hair loss happens when the old strands fall but new strands aren’t formed to replace the fallen ones. 

If you’re been seeing this pattern that’s causing hair thinning, it’s about time that you take some action. Bear in mind, hair restoration techniques can be effective as long as the hair follicles are intact. If you start losing follicles permanently, you can go bald. And, no technique in the world can bring back an extinct hair follicle. 

What we mean is, hair restoration techniques can protect hair follicles and release growth hormones in the scalp that will make the follicles produce new strands. Makes sense, right? Now, you might be thinking that a keratin shampoo or mask or serum will stop hair fall, which they can, but there’s nothing better than the PRP hair restoration at Clinique Anti Aging clinic if you want to protect your hair follicles at the root level. 

PRP means platelet-rich plasma. It’s a non-invasive safe dermatological treatment that stops hair fall and triggers new hair formation. The platelets are derived from your blood and that’s why this technique gives such miraculous results. 

Let’s walk you through the different aspects of the PRP technique to help you understand this hair restoration technique better. 

Doctors draw your blood much like it’s done during a blood test. That blood has to grow through the process of centrifugation. It separates the platelets from the blood. The plasma rich in platelets is then filtered and injected inside the patch on the scalp that’s losing hair. 

The platelets release growth factors like KGF keratinocyte growth factor and FGF fibroblast growth factor. These growth factors strengthen hair follicles that kick starts the process of new hair formation. Since it’s a delicate technique, it must be done under the observation of experts only. 

Doctors usually recommend combining the PRP procedure with either a laser session to increase blood flow in the scalp or using injections of vitamins and antioxidants. 

The FDA-approved laser that reputable clinics use is the nonablative Erbium Yag laser. This laser treatment and PRP sessions are performed with a gap of one month between them. If you get a PRP injection today, you’ll get a session of laser or vitamin injection a month from now. 

The number of sittings entirely depends upon the extent of hair fall. Usually, it takes 4 sessions of PRP and laser in combination for the hair to become thick. 

On a parting note we’d like to mention that once the hair is replenished, you’ll require touch-up sessions every 3-5 months to maintain the results. Do discuss this with your doctor.
