What is PRP for hair?

PRP is a small amount of your own plasma concentrated with platelets. It naturally contains growth factors that support follicle activity and scalp health.

A small blood sample is taken and centrifuged to separate the platelets. The platelet-rich portion is collected and gently injected across the scalp.

Is PRP safe and is there downtime?

PRP is autologous, meaning it comes from your own plasma. Allergy risk is low and downtime is typically minimal, with mild redness or tenderness settling within 24–48 hours.

How many PRP sessions are needed?

Most people complete 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance every few months.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a small amount of your own plasma enriched with platelets. These platelets contain natural growth factors that help support the scalp and encourage healthier-looking hair.

How PRP is prepared

A small blood sample is taken and placed into a centrifuge. This process separates the components of the blood and concentrates the platelets. The platelet-rich portion is then collected and gently injected across mapped areas of the scalp.

What PRP contains

PRP contains platelets suspended in plasma. Platelets carry growth factors that help support a healthy environment around the follicles.

Comfort and downtime

Most people experience minimal downtime. Mild redness or tenderness can appear after treatment and usually settles within 24–48 hours.

Sessions and timeline

A typical plan includes 3–6 sessions spaced a few weeks apart. Many clients begin to notice early changes from around 6–12 weeks, with fuller improvements developing gradually.
