1. Is PRP really helpful for hair fall control?
PRP hair treatment is one of the safest and most effective non-surgical treatments for hair loss and thinning issues. A PRP specialist will take the patient's blood and separate platelet-rich plasma using a centrifuge machine. This separated solution will then be injected into the patient's scalp for hair regrowth. This process helps restore lost hair and reduce hair fall.
2. Is PRP better than Minoxidil?
PRP hair treatment is a potent alternative to Minoxidil treatment. PRP uses the patient's platelet-rich plasma for hair regrowth, while Minoxidil is an external solution to stimulate hair growth. Minoxidil will work only as long as you use it, and hair fall will begin once the treatment is stopped. On the other hand, PRP treatment offers long-lasting results that can reverse hair loss and regrow your mane.
3. Is PRP hair treatment painful?
Typically, PRP hair treatment is not painful. However, some patients can feel temporary discomfort, tenderness, soreness, and sometimes mild pain. Your doctor may suggest numbing cream or local anaesthesia to manage pain and discomfort. The chances of pain are significantly less when you get treatment from the best doctor for hair PRP treatment, so go with the experienced ones.
4. What can be the side effects of doing hair PRP every week?
You cannot go for PRP hair treatment every week. You will need a gap of 4-6 weeks before going for the next session. It is generally a safe procedure and trusted treatment by doctors worldwide. Because it involves injecting patients' plasma into their scalp, there are no risks of getting any infectious disease. However, some patients might experience the following side effects of PRP hair therapy:
- Infection
- Injury to nerves or blood vessels
- Pain
- Discomfort
- Scar tissues
- Calcification at treated spots
- Anaesthesia reaction
Most side effects are temporary and will go away in a few days. However, ensure you get your treatment only from a reputed and high-rated clinic.
5. How many sessions of PRP are required?
Typically, most people need 3 to 4 sessions of PRP hair treatment to get the best results. Each session will have about 4-6 weeks intervals and a yearly touch-up session after completing the treatment. The number of sessions of PRP varies based on:
- The severity of hair loss, thinning, and balding
- Body's response to the treatment
- PRP doctor's advice

What is PRP Therapy?
A three-step medical process in which an individual’s blood is drawn, processed, and then injected into the scalp is PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma). Few medical communities think that PRP triggers natural hair growth and maintains it by increasing hair supply to the hair follicles and hence increases the thickness of the hair shaft. This process can also be combined with other hair rejuvenating techniques such as hair loss procedures or medications.
What is the process involved in PRP Therapy?
There are 3 steps involved in PRP therapy that can be carried out 4-6 weeks apart:
- Step 1 - the blood from the forearm is drawn and kept in the centrifuge to separate the blood composition of different densities.
- Step 2 - after 10 minutes of the centrifuge, the blood will be separated into 3 layers of platelet-poor plasma, platelet-rich plasma, red blood cells.
- Step 3 - platelet-rich plasma is drawn into a syringe and injected into the scalp areas where hair needs to be regrown.
What are the side effects of PRP Therapy?
As the blood is injected into one's own scalp, chances for side effects are less. However, few of the side effects are:
- Blood vessels or nerve injury
- Infection
- Calcification at the site of injection
- Scar tissue formation
When is PRP Therapy contraindicated?
If the patient is suffering from any of the following conditions, then PRP Therapy can be contraindicated:
- Chronic or acute infections
- Cancer
- Liver diseases
- Skin diseases
- Hemodynamic instability
- Hypofibrinogenemia
- Metabolic disorder
- Platelet dysfunction syndrome
- Systemic disorder
- Sepsis
- Low-platelet count
- Thyroid disease
However, apart from the above conditions, if the patient is on blood thinners or a heavy smoker or has a history of alcoholism or drug abuse, he/she is not an ideal candidate for PRP Therapy.
