PRP Hair Treatment Benefits
This treatment may be effective in patients diagnosed with androgenetic alopecia, also known as male and female pattern hair loss, in which the hair follicles shrink in size. PRP may boost the hair follicles so they become thicker. The exact way a PRP Hair treatment works is unknown. When PRP is injected in the scalp, the platelets are activated and can then release several growth factors that promote hair growth. The known growth factors in PRP include:
- Epidermal growth factor
- Transforming growth factor
- Vascular endothelial growth factor
- Fibroblast growth factor
- Platelet-derived growth Factor
- Insulin-like growth factor
What Is Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP)?
Although blood is mainly a liquid (called plasma), it also contains small solid components (red cells, white cells, and platelets). The platelets are best known for their importance in clotting blood. However, platelets also contain hundreds of proteins called growth factors that are very important in the healing of injuries.
PRP is plasma with many more platelets than what is typically found in blood. The concentration of platelets — and, thereby, the concentration of growth factors — can be 5 to 10 times greater (or richer) than usual.
To develop a PRP preparation, blood must first be drawn from a patient. The platelets are separated from other blood cells and their concentration is increased by spinning the blood down during a process called centrifugation. These platelets are then injected into the injured site.
Recommended Treatment Schedule
- Monthly sessions for the first three months
- Six months after the last treatment
- Nine months after that for maintenance
Maintenance routines will vary between individuals. It is important to know that PRP is not a cure for male and female pattern hair loss.
