Rejuvenate Hair Growth with Platelet-Rich Plasma

September 4, 2017 By Connie Odom

Metro MediSpa platelet-rich plasmaMen and women can suffer from hair loss due to genetic conditions or scalp infections. When this happens, they deal with the hair loss in different ways. Some of them choose to undergo hair loss treatments such as hair transplants, whereas others go for options that mask but do not deal with the hair loss such as wearing wigs and extensions. Others just chose to shave their heads bald. For those people suffering from hair loss who want a non-surgical procedure to cope with their conditions, the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment may be a good option for them.

What is Platelet-Rich Plasma?

Blood is made up of the liquid plasma, blood cells, and platelets. Platelets are the constituents of blood usually associated with rejuvenation and healing. They make blood clot when a person is injured. The platelet-rich plasma procedure for hair loss is a process that involves using plasma that is concentrated in platelets to stimulate the development hair follicles. By promoting the stimulation of hair follicles, PRP encourages the growth of hair from those follicles. The hair growth, in turn, results in reduced hair loss.

How PRP Works

On the first visit to a hair loss specialist, a person’s blood is extracted. The doctor then separates the cells in the blood from the plasma and platelets using spinning techniques such as centrifugation. Once the physician has the platelet-rich plasma, it is injected it into the scalp of the patient within 10 minutes of being extracted.

PRP stimulates and rejuvenates hair follicles, increasing the mean hair count and thickness. It also decreases the distance between active hair follicles, resulting in a fuller head of hair.

Hair Growth and PRP

Studies show that people who have undergone PRP treatment experience hair growth typically within months of undergoing the procedure. The process is easy because using a person’s blood means that there are no problems with compatibility. PRP also lessens pain and swelling when used with other procedures such as hair transplants.
