The Role of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) in Hair Regrowth: Evidence and Expectations

Hair loss can be distressing, affecting self-confidence and overall appearance. Fortunately, advances in regenerative medicine have introduced promising non-surgical options for hair restoration. One such treatment is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, which has gained significant attention for its natural and effective approach. At Rx Rejuvenate, we provide advanced PRP treatments to help stimulate hair regrowth and improve hair density.


What is PRP Therapy for Hair?

PRP therapy involves using your own blood to stimulate hair regrowth. A small sample of blood is drawn, processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, and then injected into the scalp. Platelets are rich in growth factors, which promote tissue repair, stimulate dormant hair follicles, and enhance circulation in the scalp.


How PRP Stimulates Hair Growth

PRP works by delivering growth factors directly to the hair follicles. These growth factors:

  • Prolong the active growth phase (anagen) of hair.
  • Stimulate dormant follicles to produce new hairs.
  • Increase blood supply and nourishment to hair roots.
  • Improve overall scalp health, making hair stronger and thicker.

Evidence Supporting PRP for Hair Regrowth

Clinical studies have shown promising results:

  • Many patients experience reduced hair shedding after the first 1–2 sessions.
  • Noticeable improvements in hair thickness and density are often seen within 3–6 months.
  • PRP is especially effective for individuals with androgenic alopecia (pattern hair loss) in its early to moderate stages.

Although results vary, multiple peer-reviewed studies confirm PRP as a safe and effective treatment when performed by experienced professionals.


What to Expect During PRP Treatment

  1. Consultation: Our experts assess your hair loss pattern and overall health.
  2. Blood Collection & Processing: A small blood sample is drawn and processed to isolate the platelet-rich plasma.
  3. Scalp Injections: PRP is carefully injected into targeted areas of thinning or receding hair.
  4. Recovery: Mild redness or soreness may occur, but downtime is minimal.

A typical session lasts about 45–60 minutes, and most patients require 3–4 initial treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart.


Results Timeline

  • 1–2 Sessions: Reduced hair shedding, improved scalp health.
  • 3–4 Sessions: Visible thickening and new hair growth in thinning areas.
  • 6+ Months: Continued improvement in density and coverage.
  • Maintenance: Follow-up sessions every 6–12 months help sustain results.

Who is a Good Candidate?

PRP therapy may be ideal if you:

  • Have early to moderate hair thinning or pattern baldness.
  • Want a natural, non-surgical treatment.
  • Are in good overall health with no blood or platelet disorders.

It may be less effective for individuals with advanced baldness or significant scarring alopecia. Our experts at Rx Rejuvenate will evaluate your condition and create a personalized treatment plan.
