Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy
PRP treatment in Bangalore is emerging as an advanced approach to address patterned hair loss, thinning hair, and receding hairlines, offering effective and natural hair regrowth results. This article aims to provide insights into the procedure, its associated costs, and the anticipated outcomes, helping you gain a comprehensive understanding of this increasingly popular treatment for hair-related concerns.
Here’s how the process works and its effectiveness:
- Blood Collection: A small amount of the patient’s blood is drawn, usually from the arm, similar to a routine blood test.
- Centrifugation: The collected blood is placed in a centrifuge, separating its components. This concentrates the platelets in a small amount of plasma.
- PRP Extraction: The platelet-rich plasma, containing growth factors, is extracted from the processed blood sample.
- Application: The PRP is then applied to the targeted area, often through injections, addressing concerns such as hair loss or skin rejuvenation.
PRP Hair Treatment Procedure
- PRP Insertion with Injections: In the final step, dermatologists safely inject the PRP, obtained from the blood, into the affected scalp area using microneedles. Before this process, local anesthesia is administered into the scalp margin by your dermatologist to ensure a pain-free experience.
- Extraction and Activation of PRP: From the remaining layers containing Platelet Poor Plasma (PPP) and red blood cells in the tube, doctors extract Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). Trichologists activate the growth factors in the plasma using a specific activating agent before injecting it into the patient’s scalp.
- Platelet Separation: Utilizing the centrifuge technique, dermatologists separate platelets from the blood. The double spin method ensures an optimal concentration of platelets rich in growth factors.
- Blood Sample Collection: At the onset of the PRP hair loss treatment procedure, a 20 ml blood sample is drawn by your doctor.
Benefits of PRP Hair Treatment

Improved Hair Thickness and Quality:
PRP has been associated with improvements in hair thickness, quality, and overall texture, contributing to healthier-looking hair.
Quick Recovery and Minimal Downtime:
Since PRP is a minimally invasive procedure, recovery time is usually quick, and patients can resume their regular activities shortly after the treatment.
Non-Invasive Procedure:
PRP is a non-surgical and minimally invasive treatment, making it a suitable option for individuals seeking hair restoration without major interventions.
Natural Hair Growth Stimulation:
PRP contains growth factors that stimulate hair follicles, promoting natural hair growth and improving hair density.
Enhanced Scalp Health:
PRP can improve overall scalp health by promoting blood circulation, reducing inflammation, and nourishing the scalp, which contributes to healthier hair.
Safe and Well-Tolerated:
PRP treatment is generally considered safe with minimal side effects, as it utilizes the patient’s own blood components.
