PRP Injections
PRP or platelet rich plasma, utilizes growth factors created from your own blood to help promote fuller thicker hair.
Why It's Special
- Suitable for early stages of hair loss, small or isolated areas of hair loss, thinning hair – consultation required
- Stimulates inactive hair follicles into an active phase of growth.
- No downtime.
Frequency of Treatment
Series of 3 treatments once every 4-6 weeks is recommended.
Here’s the plan:
Procedure
- We will draw a sample of blood from your arm – Nothing to worry about we’re quick and gentle with this!
- Next we spin it down in our centrifuge where the red cells are separated from the plasma, creating a gold solution
- We then collect that this and inject it directly into the scalp at the targeted areas of thinning.
