Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP) for Hair Loss

What is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy for hair regrowth is a highly effective, non-surgical procedure that uses the patient’s own blood to stimulate hair follicles, promote hair growth, and address thinning or hair loss.

How PRP for Hair Regrowth Works:

A small sample of your blood is taken, typically from your arm, and processed using a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from other components of the blood, such as red and white blood cells.

The Alocuro high-dose PRP used in our clinic contains an enhanced concentration of platelets, which are rich in growth factors and other bioactive proteins crucial for tissue repair and regeneration. Using a higher platelet concentration can significantly improve the treatment’s efficacy by delivering more potent growth factors to the hair follicles, helping to stimulate the growth of new hair and rejuvenate existing follicles.

The prepared PRP is then carefully injected into the scalp in areas affected by hair loss or thinning. A fine needle is used for precise placement, ensuring that the PRP is evenly distributed across the treatment area.

Key Benefits of Alocuro High-Dose PRP:

  • Higher Platelet Concentration: Alocuro’s high-dose PRP ensures an increased amount of growth factors, which enhances the potential for hair follicle regeneration and stronger, healthier hair.
  • Improved Hair Growth: By stimulating dormant hair follicles, PRP encourages the growth of new, thicker, and stronger hair.
  • Minimal Downtime: The procedure is minimally invasive, with little to no downtime, allowing you to quickly return to daily activities.

How PRP Stimulates Hair Regrowth:

The growth factors and proteins in the PRP stimulate blood flow to the scalp and rejuvenate hair follicles, prolonging the growth phase of the hair cycle. Over time, this leads to thicker, stronger, and healthier hair.

PRP therapy is particularly effective for individuals experiencing early-stage hair thinning or pattern baldness. It can also be used to enhance the results of other hair restoration treatments, such as topical medications or hair transplant surgery.

Treatment Timeline:

PRP therapy typically involves a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart, with the exact number of treatments depending on the severity of your hair loss and desired results. After the initial sessions, maintenance treatments may be required every few months to maintain the results and continue promoting hair growth.

Why Choose High-Dose PRP (Alocuro)?

The Alocuro high-dose PRP is crucial for patients who want the most effective and advanced form of hair restoration. The increased platelet concentration accelerates the healing process and enhances the production of growth factors that support hair follicle regeneration. With this enhanced formulation, you are more likely to see faster and more significant results than with standard PRP treatments.

Suitability and Consultation:

PRP for hair regrowth is generally safe and minimally invasive, with minimal side effects. However, results can vary depending on the extent of hair loss, individual response to treatment, and the specific characteristics of the patient’s scalp and hair follicles.

For optimal results, it is essential to consult with a qualified provider who can assess your hair loss condition and determine if PRP therapy, particularly with Alocuro high-dose PRP, is the right option for you.

Platelets are the key to the body’s ability to stop bleeding and repair damaged blood vessels and cells in the body. Platelets contain substances called growth factors that activate and rejuvenate cells in the body.

The concentrated platelets in PRP contain tremendous amounts of bioactive proteins, which include the growth factors PDGF and VEGF. These growth factors have been shown to initiate accelerated tissue repair, and according to experts have also been shown to have positive effects on skin rejuvenation. The growth factors, when released, promote tissue repair, angiogenesis (capillary formation), and collagen production.

This treatment is associated with no risk of allergy or infections as we are essentially using your own byproduct.

The growth factors, when released, promote tissue repair, angiogenesis (capillary formation), collagen production, and encourages normalisation of the hair follicular unit. Most importantly, evidence suggests PRP can reverse the miniaturisation process of hair follicles (a result of dihydrotestosterone, DHT) when injected into the balding areas of the scalp.

Benefits of PRP for Skin Rejuvenation

PRP is effective particularly for crepy skin under the eyes (fine wrinkles) that are difficult to treat by conventional rejuvenation therapy. It is also effective for treating wrinkles, acne scars, saggy skin, eye bags, and neck wrinkles.

“growth factors which work to stimulate collagen production, repair skin tissue and improve the skin’s ability to retain moisture.”

Figure 1 shows the mechanism of PRP when injected into the aged or sun-damaged skin, which typically has less collagen, less elasticity, the reduced amount of hyaluronic acid, and a reduced ability to retain moisture. The platelet component will then release growth factors which work to stimulate collagen production, repair skin tissue and improve the skin’s ability to retain moisture.
