PRP Hair Loss Treatment

Platelet Rich Plasma

PRP treatment is a non-surgical approach to hair loss treatment that uses the patient’s own natural healing resources to stimulate growth and a health of the scalp, hair and follicles.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is better known for its use in skin treatments. It was first developed as a treatment for burns, where it works in helping the skin to recover and grow again; but has more recently become known as a skin rejuvenation treatment, where it appeals to those looking for a natural approach to improving the quality of the skin as well as addressing the signs of age such as lines and wrinkles.

What is PRP?

Platelet rich plasma is a substance that is prepared from a small sample of the patient’s own blood. Through special processes and preparation, the sample is refined to leave very high levels of growth and regeneration factors in a super-rich plasma. It is prepared 100% from the patient’s own resources, it is completely biocompatible so there is no risk of allergic reaction or rejection.

PRP is a powerful agent in cell rejuvenation. It works to improve blood supply and stimulate healing with long-lasting results.

The same principles apply when using PRP for hair loss.

Dr Kubicka applies the PRP solution to the patient’s scalp where it releases powerful rejuvenation and healing factors.

Efficacy of Endoret for androgenic alopecia (AGA) compared to topical minoxidil Eur J Plast Surg 2016 June;39(3):173-180

PURPOSES

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate and compare the efficacy and safety of plasma rich in growth factors (PRGFs) versus topical minoxidil treatment in AGA affected patients.

METHODS

Following a retrospective case control design, 379 patients treated with either PRGF or minoxidil were included in this study. Diagnostic trichograms at baseline and 4 months after treatment were performed with the aim of analyzing the anagen/telogen hair change improvement.

RESULTS

PRGF-treated patients showed higher anagen hair increase improvement compared to minoxidil-treated ones (6.9 ±0.4 and 4.6±0.5 %, respectively) (p<0.05). Telogen hair decrease improvement was also higher in PRGF group (5.7 ±0.3 and 2.6±0.5 %, respectively) (p<0.05). Global photographs showed an overall volume and quality hair improvement for both treatments. No adverse effects were reported.

CONCLUSIONS

This retrospective study shows that PRGF is a safe and effective treatment for AGA and evidences that PRGF exerts improved anagen/telogen results than topical minoxidil.

LEVEL OF EVIDENCE

Level IV, therapeutic study.

PRP Platelet Rich Plasma Hair Treatment FAQ

Does it work?

There is plenty of good evidence in favour of platelet rich plasma for treating hair loss – see above for scientific research results. However, as with all procedures, treatment results may vary from person to person according to individual experience and the condition being treated. We will discuss this fully in your consultation and give honest and realistic advice as to what outcome you can expect and when.

When should I start treatment?

The earlier treatment starts, the better the outcome. Where hair loss is in the initial stages, we can look at retaining more of the existing hair as well as encouraging regrowth in the bald or thin patches.

My hair loss is quite advanced. Is it too late?

Not necessarily. We can still focus on retaining the remaining hair as well as addressing the areas of loss. The best thing to do is to book a consultation so that we can assess the situation and give advice. We won’t give false expectations and will give an honest appraisal of what can be achieved.

How much will it cost?

Treatment plans will be created and costed based on each individual’s needs following assessment and full consultation. Please see hair treatment prices as a guide.

What’s the recovery time like?

Non-surgical treatments tend to have very short recovery times, especially when compared to the commitment of surgery. You will receive a full explanation of what to expect before committing to any treatment at all.

Is it safe?

Yes, PRP is completely biocompatible, making it a very safe option with minimal risk of infection or rejection.

Will it look natural?

Yes, PRP works to restore your natural hair growth and health, so it won’t look ‘artificial’ or ‘fake’ at all.
