PRP
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy is a three-step treatment used in multiple application, in which a person’s blood is drawn, processed through centrifugation and then injected into the desired portions. PRP injections provide nutritional rich environment for natural hair growth and maintain it by increasing blood supply to the hair follicles.
PRP preparation and treatment is a three-step process
Step 1:-Your blood is drawn and put into a centrifuge (a machine that spins with certain frequencies that components in the blood separate as fluids of different densities.
Step 2:- After about 10 – 15 minutes, your blood components will have separated into in three layers:
1st layer -platelet-poor plasma
2ndlayer-platelet-rich plasma
3rd layer-red blood cells
Step 3:- 1st and 3rd layers are discarded and the platelet-rich plasma is filled into a syringe and then injected into areas of the scalp that need increased hair growth.
side effects of PRP therapy include:-
- Infection
- Bleeding
- Altered sensation
If you’re worried about hair loss, your treatment options include
- medication like minoxidil and Propecia
- surgery like hair transplant surgery.
- Another consideration is PRP therapy.
Sometimes this approach is combined with other hair loss medications and hair transplantation surgery.
PRP therapy has been in use since 1980s in wide varieties of applications such as tendon, ligaments and muscles injury treatments.
Role of PRP treatment in hair restoration is new trend and there are many who believe in PRP as safe and effective option in hair loss treatment,
but there is not enough scientific data to support its role.
