What is PRP Therapy & Why It’s Effective?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy uses concentrated platelets from your own blood to stimulate natural healing and regeneration. The platelets contain growth factors that promote tissue repair, collagen production, and hair follicle stimulation.
PRP is effective for both hair loss treatment and facial rejuvenation, making it one of the most versatile treatments in dermatology.
How PRP Works
PRP harnesses your body’s own healing mechanisms:
- Blood Collection — A small amount of blood (10–20ml) is drawn, similar to a routine blood test.
- Centrifugation — The blood is spun in a specialized centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from red blood cells.
- Concentration — The resulting PRP contains 3–5 times the normal concentration of platelets and growth factors.
- Application — PRP is injected or applied topically (with microneedling) to the treatment area.
- Healing — Growth factors stimulate cell regeneration, collagen production, and tissue repair.
PRP for Hair Loss
PRP is one of the most effective non-surgical treatments for hair loss:
- Stimulates dormant hair follicles — growth factors reactivate resting follicles
- Increases hair thickness — existing hairs grow thicker and stronger
- Reduces hair fall — strengthens hair roots and improves follicle health
- Improves scalp circulation — enhances blood supply to hair follicles
- Best for — androgenetic alopecia (pattern baldness), telogen effluvium, and early-stage hair loss
PRP for Skin Rejuvenation (Vampire Facial)
PRP for skin uses the same healing growth factors to rejuvenate facial skin:
- Collagen production — stimulates new collagen for firmer, smoother skin
- Fine lines reduction — plumps skin to reduce wrinkles
- Acne scar improvement — promotes healing and collagen in scarred areas
- Dark circles — thickens under-eye skin and improves circulation
- Skin texture — improves overall skin quality and radiance
- Often combined with microneedling for enhanced penetration and results
