Platelet‑Rich Plasma (PRP) is a cutting‑edge, natural regenerative treatment that uses your body’s own growth factors to support hair health, extend the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle, and improve hair density over time. By concentrating the healing power of your own blood, PRP encourages dormant or thinning hair follicles to become more active and resilient.
How PRP Works for Hair
PRP is created by drawing a small sample of your blood and spinning it in a centrifuge to concentrate platelets — rich in growth factors like PDGF, VEGF, and TGF‑β. When injected into the scalp, these growth factors help to:
- Stimulate dormant hair follicles into active growth
- Extend the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle
- Improve scalp circulation and follicle function
- Promote healthier, thicker‑looking hair over time
Studies have shown that PRP not only increases hair density and count, but also reduces the number of hairs in the resting (telogen) phase and increases hairs in the growth phase — meaning a stronger, fuller head of hair overall.
Proven Results Backed by Research
Clinical evidence supports PRP as a safe and effective option for many individuals experiencing hair thinning or early‑stage hair loss:
- Analyses and clinical studies demonstrate significant increases in hair density after PRP therapy, with many patients showing 30–40% increases in hair count over 3–6 months of treatment.
- Overall patient satisfaction rates are high, with approximately 70–80% of individuals reporting improved hair thickness and reduced shedding.
- Study data also indicate significant improvements compared with placebo and in some cases outperform standard topical therapies, especially when combined with complementary treatments.
These results are most pronounced when treatment begins early and follows a consistent protocol — typically 3–4 sessions spaced several weeks apart, with maintenance sessions afterwards to sustain outcomes.
Who Can Benefit from PRP?
PRP is particularly effective for:
- Early‑stage hair thinning and androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern hair loss)
- Individuals noticing increased hair shedding or thinning
- Clients wanting a natural, non‑surgical regenerative option
- Those looking to extend the growth phase of hair follicles and support healthier hair life cycles
While individual results vary, many clients find PRP helps reduce hair loss and encourage thicker hair growth without the need for medications or surgery.
What to Expect from Treatment
PRP hair rejuvenation is a minimally invasive procedure performed in‑clinic:
- A small blood sample is taken and processed to extract concentrated platelets
- The PRP is injected into the scalp in targeted areas of thinning or concern
- Sessions typically take 30–45 minutes, with minimal downtime
Most protocols recommend multiple sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, with follow‑ups every 6–12 months to maintain results.
The Bottom Line
PRP represents a highly promising approach to hair rejuvenation — one that works with your body’s own systems to activate growth, extend the hair’s growth phase, and improve hair quality and density.
If you’re noticing thinning, shedding, or early hair loss, book a consultation to see how personalised PRP treatment can support your hair goals.
