PRP is a regenerative treatment that harnesses the healing power of the patient’s own blood.
- A blood draw similar to that of a common analysis is performed, usually from the patient’s arm.
- The extracted blood is placed in a centrifuge machine, that spins at high speed to separate the blood components. This process takes about 10-15 minutes.
- The platelet-rich plasma layer is carefully extracted, which contains the essential growth factors for cell regeneration.
- The PRP obtained is then injected into the area to be treated, such as the scalp, to stimulate tissue regeneration and promote hair growth.
Its use has proven to be effective for both men and women. Its effectiveness depends on the type of alopecia present, but it is useful in various types of hair loss, such as androgenetic alopecia or alopecia areata.
Among its benefits, we can mention:
- It increases the thickness of the hair shaft.
- It can be applied after a hair transplant procedure and will promote hair growth.
- It has no side effects and does not cause allergies.
- Because it is a safe procedure, it can be applied to patients of any age.
- It promotes the creation of new cells.
It can be applied after a hair transplant.
The session lasts approximately one hour.
It is recommended that no high-impact physical activity be performed for at least 24 hours after its application. Because it is an outpatient procedure, it does not require rest.
