PRP for Hair Growth

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.
