Hair fall is a common concern for both men and women. Stress, hormonal changes, genetics, and lifestyle factors can all affect hair growth. As a result, many people notice thinning hair or increased shedding over time. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a modern treatment that supports natural hair regrowth. It uses components from the patient’s own blood to stimulate hair follicles and improve scalp health.
At SkinVive, PRP treatment is performed under dermatologist supervision. The procedure focuses on strengthening existing hair follicles and encouraging healthier hair growth.
What is PRP for Hair?
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma. It is a treatment that uses concentrated growth factors derived from a small sample of the patient’s blood.
First, a small amount of blood is collected. Then it is processed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma. This plasma contains growth factors that help repair and stimulate tissue.
When PRP is injected into the scalp, it can activate weakened hair follicles. As a result, hair growth improves and hair fall may gradually reduce.
Because the treatment uses the patient’s own blood, the risk of allergic reactions is very low.
When is PRP treatment recommended?
PRP treatment may be recommended for:
However, the treatment works best when hair follicles are still active.

What to expect from the procedure?
The procedure usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes.
First, a small amount of blood is drawn from the patient. The sample is then processed to separate platelet-rich plasma. Next, the PRP solution is injected into areas of the scalp with hair thinning. A numbing cream may be used to improve comfort during the procedure.
After treatment, mild redness or tenderness may occur temporarily. Most patients return to normal activities the same day. Because hair growth is gradual, visible improvement usually appears over the following months.

How many sessions are required for PRP?
Hair growth occurs in cycles. Therefore, multiple sessions are usually recommended.
Many patients start with a series of sessions spaced a few weeks apart. Maintenance treatments may be advised depending on individual response.
Your dermatologist will suggest a personalised treatment plan based on the condition of your scalp and hair.
