PRP for Hair Loss

Activate dormant follicles. Strengthen existing hair. Slow and reverse hair loss — naturally. PRP for hair loss uses the growth factors concentrated in your own platelets — injected directly into the scalp — to stimulate dormant hair follicles, strengthen miniaturised hairs, improve scalp circulation, and slow the progression of hair loss. It is one of the most evidence-backed non-surgical hair loss treatments available, and a critical adjunct to hair transplant surgery.

PRP is not a cure for hair loss — but it is a powerful tool for patients in the early to moderate stages of hair thinning, and an important maintenance treatment after hair transplant to protect existing and transplanted follicles.

Why Early Hair Thinning Follicles that are miniaturised but still present respond to PRP — the earlier the treatment, the better the outcome Post-Hair Transplant PRP improves graft survival, accelerates early growth, and reduces the shedding phase Female Hair Loss Female pattern hair loss responds particularly well to PRP — women often have many miniaturised follicles that respond to growth factor stimulation Alopecia Areata Evidence suggests PRP can help in patch hair loss by modulating the autoimmune response at the follicular level Blood Drawn 15-30ml — small volume, very well tolerated Treatment Time 45-60 minutes per session Sessions 3 sessions, 4 weeks apart (initial course) Maintenance Every 4-6 months for sustained results Downtime None — mild scalp tenderness for 24 hours Onset Reduced shedding within 4-6 weeks; density improvement at 3-6 months PRP combined with medical therapy ( minoxidil + finasteride ) and hair transplant represents the most comprehensive hair restoration approach — addressing hair loss at every level simultaneously: surgery to redistribute hair, medication to slow loss, and PRP to activate and sustain follicular health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can PRP regrow completely bald areas?

No. PRP works only on follicles that are miniaturised but still present — it cannot create new follicles or regrow hair in completely bald areas. For bald areas, hair transplant is the only permanent solution. PRP is best used early, before follicles are completely lost.

Is PRP better than minoxidil or finasteride ? They work differently and are best used together. Minoxidil improves scalp blood flow. Finasteride blocks DHT. PRP provides direct growth factor stimulation to follicles.
