PRP for full hair - The promising treatment option!

Have you heard of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) as a possible solution to hair growth problems? PRP has made a name for itself not only in medicine, but also in aesthetic dermatology. It is an innovative treatment option that aims to promote hair growth and improve thinning hair. In this blog post, we will take a closer look at PRP and its relationship to hair growth.

What is PRP?

PRP is the abbreviation for Platelet-Rich Plasma. It is a substance obtained from the patient's own blood. The blood is centrifuged to separate the platelets (thrombocytes) from the other components and obtain the concentrated plasma. Platelets play an important role in wound healing and the release of growth factors.

How does PRP work for hair growth problems?

Hair growth treatment with PRP involves injecting concentrated plasma rich in platelets and growth factors into the scalp. The growth factors are thought to stimulate hair follicles, stimulate hair growth and improve the health of existing hair. PRP can also improve blood flow to the scalp and reduce inflammation, which can have a positive effect on hair growth.

Advantages of PRP for hair growth

  • Natural approach: PRP uses the patient's own body resources to promote hair growth without resorting to chemical substances or drugs.
  • Safety: Because PRP is derived from the patient's own blood, there is less risk of side effects or allergic reactions.
  • Efficacy: studies have shown that PRP can improve hair growth in men and women with different types of hair loss.
  • Versatility: PRP can be used for different types of hair loss, including hereditary hair loss, diffuse hair loss and androgenetic alopecia.

What can you expect from PRP treatment?

Hair growth treatment with PRP usually consists of several sessions at intervals of a few weeks. During treatment, the PRP is injected into the scalp, and local anesthesia may be used to minimize potential discomfort. Most patients report minimal pain or discomfort during treatment.

Meetings and schedule

  • Hair growth treatment with PRP usually consists of several sessions, which are performed at intervals of about four to six weeks. The exact number of sessions depends on various factors, including the severity of the hair loss and the patient's individual response to the treatment.
  • Local anesthesia: A local anesthetic is usually applied to the scalp during treatment to minimize any potential discomfort or pain during the injection. This makes the treatment as comfortable as possible.
  • Injection of PRP: PRP is delivered into the scalp through fine injections. The specialist or dermatologist determines the areas that need to be treated to stimulate hair growth. The exact amount and placement of PRP is tailored to the patient's individual needs.
  • Minimal pain or discomfort: Most people report minimal pain or discomfort during PRP treatment. The injections may be felt as mild stinging or pressure. However, this varies from person to person and may also depend on the individual's sensitivity to pain.
  • Patience and results: It is important to understand that the results of PRP treatment for hair growth are not immediate. It usually takes a few months for improvements in hair growth to become visible. This is because PRP needs to stimulate the hair follicles and affect the natural hair growth cycle. Therefore, patience is required to see the full results of the treatment.

By utilizing the body's own resources, PRP can stimulate hair growth, improve thinning hair and restore self-confidence. If you suffer from hair loss or thinning hair, you should see a specialist or dermatologist to find out if PRP is for you.

It is recommended to discuss the individual situation with a specialist or dermatologist in order to have realistic expectations.
