Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP)

About Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy

In recent years, doctors have learned that the body has the ability to heal itself. Platelet-rich plasma therapy (PRP) is a form of regenerative medicine that can harness those abilities and amplify the natural growth factors your body uses to heal tissue.

PRP has been used in the medical industry to treat wounds and musculoskeletal injuries and now become widely recognised in aesthetic medicine for facial, hair and sexual rejuvenation.

To develop a PRP preparation a small blood sample is taken from the arm of the patients and put through a centrifuge which separates the plasma from the blood. The plasma contains platelets which are rich in growth factors that stimulate cells
to repair and regenerate the area injected into.

PRP for facial and hair rejuvenation

PRP is a collagen stimulating and anti-ageing treatment where your own cells are used to stimulate skin regeneration, improving your skin tone and texture, leaving you with a more youthful and glowing skin. PRP is injected into your face using various techniques depending on the clinical symptoms and skin condition. PRP is a safe, non-invasive treatment that can be used to treat:

  • fine lines and wrinkles
  • acne scars
  • tear trough
  • dark under eye circles
  • uneven skintone

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is widely used in the field of hair restoration and an ideal non-surgical treatment of hair thinning in men and women. The platelets in the blood are rich in growth factors and other proteins that are essential for tissue regeneration.

When injected into the scalp or beard these growth factors stimulate new hair growth, strengthen the hair follicles, increase quality of existing hair and prevent further hair loss.

PRP treatment takes 45 minutes with no downtime or risk of allergies. It is recommended to have a course of 3 treatments 4-6 weeks apart.

I used Dr Farzana at Horsforth Smile Clinic for a course of PRP hair treatments, I have seen a massive improvement in hair growth over the last two months. She has taken care of my dry scalp and ensured I felt looked after throughout all my treatments.

Appointments run smoothly and don’t take much time at all. Highly recommend this doctor for your PRP hair loss treatment.
