PRP For Hair Loss

At Skin+MedAesthetics we use a medically approved PRP system. We utilise clinical photography to measure improvements from the treatment to ensure you get the best results possible. We’ve helped patients with stress related hair loss androgenetic alopecia and with alopecia areata and our treatment is suitable for all genders! 



Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy for hair is a non-surgical treatment designed to stimulate hair growth and improve hair density. This therapy involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and then injecting this platelet-rich plasma into the scalp.

The platelets release growth factors that can stimulate dormant hair follicles, promote hair regeneration, and prolong the growth phase of the hair cycle12. PRP Therapy is often used to treat conditions like androgenic alopecia (hereditary hair thinning or baldness) and can be effective in both men and women.

The procedure is relatively quick and involves minimal downtime. Typically, a series of treatments is required to achieve the best results, with many patients noticing improvements after the first few sessions


Also known as autologous platelet rich plasma this treatment is not yet widely available. 

There is enough evidence indicating that some patients can benefit from PRP for hair loss particularly for stress related hair loss, androgenetic alopecia for all genders. 


At a Glance


What is PRP for hair loss?

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) for hair loss is a treatment utilising a biological product prepared from the patient’s own blood. The platelet rich plasma contains growth factors (such as TGF-beta, PDGF-AB, bFGF, IGF, VEGF and EGF) and bioactive proteins (globulin, albumin, fibrinogen), nutrients, vitamins, hormones and electrolytes which speed up tissue repair and regeneration. Through separating the plasma, the cellular components of the blood including the red blood cells and leucocytes are removed and it is these components that inhibit the repair and regeneration process. The treatment increases hair density and reduces hair loss to normal levels. Improvements are seen within 90 days, with hair growth continuing to improve in some patients over 6 months. PRP can be combined with other hair loss treatments.

Results have been seen in patients with stress related, androgenetic alopecia and with alopecia areata and is suitable for all genders.


What is involved in PRP for hair loss?

A small quantity of the patients own blood is collected and then treated in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich-plasma from the red blood cells. We use the Regen system which utilises a unique separator gel which keeps the red cells separated. The plasma is then injected in a grid pattern into the scalp. Treatment takes around one hour.

A course of treatment involves 3 sessions of PRP with one set of injections each month, over a 3 month period. Ongoing maintenance treatment every six months is recommended.
