For Hair Fall treatment - P.R.P.Therapy
PRP or platelet rich plasma
A prp is a new approach to hair treatment, in which various growth factors which are essential for hair growth are supplied to the scalp with the help of platelet rich plasma (PRP). As it is derived from the patient's own blood, therefore, has no potential for causing an immune reaction. With we increase a number of platelets at the site which releases various growth factors thereby recover, repair and augments hair health and growth.
How PRP is prepared?
In order to prepare PRP, blood is withdrawn and centrifuged by specialized machines/techniques so that concentrated platelets rich plasma is obtained which contains 5-8 times more platelets per cc as compared to normal plasma. This PRP can be injected directly into the scalp with a very thin needle or can be applied with the help of derma roller.
The role of prp in hair growth
The platelet growth factors stimulate the dormant hair follicles which result in the production of new hair and enhance the hair growth and thickness in next 3-4 months.
