PRP Therapy
HOW IS PRP TREATMENT CARRIED OUT?
At Beyond Medispa London, we offer PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy treatments for hair loss.
- We safely draw a small amount of blood from your arm, which is then spun in a machine to separate the plasma from the red blood cells.
- The plasma is then injected back into the scalp in small injections.
PRP THERAPY FOR Hormonal hair loss (androgenic alopecia);
- Genetic male and female pattern baldness
- For males it usually begins at crown or temples
- For females hair thinning is first seen in the frontal and crown regions
NON-HORMONAL HAIR LOSS (telogen effuvium);
- Medication
- Poor diet
- Lifestyle
- Surgery
- Stress
HOW MANY SESSIONS ARE TYPICALLY REQUIRED?
Usually 4-6 sessions at 4 week intervals, followed by a maintanence treatment every 6 months (if patient wishes to maintain results)
IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME?
The area is red and tight for 1-2 days, but there is minimal pain or discomfort. Often described as mild sunburn symptoms for those 2 days.
WHEN CAN PATIENTS SEE RESULTS?
Patients can expect thicker and stronger hair after 8-12 weeks, visible results appear around 3 months once the hair shaft has grown in length.
