The Science Behind PRP
PRP therapy uses the healing power of your own blood to help restore hair. During this treatment, a small sample of your blood is taken and spun in a machine called a centrifuge to separate it into its different parts.
The platelets play a crucial role in healing wounds and regenerating tissues. After they are separated, the platelet-rich part is injected back into the scalp in areas where the hair is thinning.
Growth factors within platelets include the following:
By reintroducing these growth factors, PRP therapy helps stimulate dormant hair follicles to enter an active growth phase.
