PRP For Hair Loss - Regrow Your Hair!

There are 3 steps involved in PRP therapy. In the first step, blood is drawn out from the body. In the second, it is categorized into groups based on high or low platelet count. In the third and final step, the drawn blood is inserted into the portions of the head where hair growth is required, to enrich the nutrient content of the follicles.

Although PRP is a highly recommended process with results achieved by itself alone, maintenance treatments are recommended for best results every 4-6 weeks. In the period just after treatment, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication and blood thinners are best avoided. In the 5 hours immediately following treatment, Jacuzzis, sauna and heat treatments on the skin are also advised against.

A centrifuge is the device used in PRP therapy, in the second out of the 3 steps in the process. It s function is to separate the blood into 3 categories- platelet rich plasma, platelet poor plasma and red blood cells. It does so by rotating the blood at high speeds.

The arm is the part of the body most preferred to draw blood from for purposes of PRP therapy. This is because there aren t any internal organs in immediate proximity to the arm, and therefore there is reduced risk of trauma to them. Also, veins on arms are superficial and easy to locate for operation.
