PRP stands for platelets-rich-plasma. Our blood has two main active ingredients red blood cells and plasma.
The plasma has further sub-parts,white blood cells and platelets that are responsible for rich growth factors. Rich growth factors, in a way, play vital role in message communication, signaling skin cells to function. In fact they are used in the medicines to cure the thinning of hair or complete hair loss. The growth factors assist to stimulate the functions of hair follicles and activate new hair growth.
The scientific research has proved that use of PRP is suitable and effective treatment for hair loss because its efficacy has promoted the hair cycle, hair count and hair thickness.
Process of PRP Hair Growth
This is scientific and careful procedure in which blood is drawn from patient’s arm. This drawn blood is poured into germ free tube that is carefully placed into a machine called centrifuge. This machine spins the tube to separate the red blood cells and plasma. This plasma is collected and injected directly on those marked sites on the scalp that is suffering from thinning of hair. The injection process is applied on the scalp on the sites that are separated half inch and continued till whole marked sites on the scalp are injected.Usually the whole procedure completes within an hour duration.
Risk Factors for PRP Hair Growth
In case of extended discomfort, we recommend Tylenol once the PRP Hair Growth in completed.
Bruising is often observed but it is naturally resolved within week duration.
We at Aesthetiq Skin Clinic recommend warm shower after some hours of completion of the procedure as the hot water is useful to increase the temperature of the scalp that will increase the blood circulation throughout the scalp.
Stop typical hair coloring for two to three days after the completion of the treatment.
The Results of PRP Hair Growth
For good results consistency of the treatment is main factor. Treatments are usually required once a month till three to four months and after this initial phase every three to six months treatments are required depending upon the results and candidate response.
Candidates for PRP
Albeit PRP Hair Growth has no side effects but this therapy is not recommended for all. All those individuals that have history of smoking, heavy drug use, and heavy use of alcohol should not go for this procedure.
