If you are suffering from hair thinning or hair loss and looking for an effective way to achieve a fuller head of hair, try PRP Hair in London with Derma Aesthetics London.
Most people think that the best way to treat thinning hair and encourage hair growth is with a hair transplant. But did you know you can also treat hair loss with non-surgical treatments? Well, you can with PRP hair treatment.
At our doctor-led clinic in London, we use Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) hair treatment for all hair types including hair loss, hair thinning and breakage. It is an advanced treatment that uses your body’s own natural healing properties to stimulate new healthy hair growth.
At Derma Aesthetics London, we understand that hair loss affects each person differently. We also know that you might have tried several hair loss treatments, but have not seen any results. This is why our experts work with you to assess your condition and develop a treatment plan that is tailored to your needs.
It all starts with booking a consultation at our clinic, where you can find out more about our PRP hair loss treatment.
What is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment for hair growth?
Platelet-rich plasma treatment or PRP for hair loss is one of the fastest-growing treatments available for anyone looking to achieve hair regrowth. This is a great alternative to hair transplants, which are a much longer process and require a lot more downtime.
PRP treatment is a natural treatment that boosts blood circulation to the scalp. It is a non-surgical procedure that involves using a natural substance in your own blood to stimulate new cell growth. This helps to repair existing hair follicles by releasing more oxygen and growth factors.
The injection of platelet-rich plasma cells into your scalp stimulates inactive hair follicles to push them into the growth phase of the hair growth cycle. The proteins and growth factors can also help increase hair density and the thickness of your existing hair, whilst also working to promote hair growth.
The treatment takes under an hour to perform and there is no downtime. This means you can fit PRP hair loss treatment into your normal routine without having to take time off work.
What happens during PRP hair treatment London?
The PRP hair loss treatment is a three-step procedure that includes:
- We start by taking some of your own blood
- We place this blood in a centrifuge, which spins the blood to separate your platelets from your other blood cells.
- The doctor injects the separated platelets back into your scalp area at the points where your hair is thinning the most or where you have hair loss. This is the action that aims to stimulate hair follicles for new hair growth.
Whilst some patients do find the injections to be painful, if you prefer, we can discuss using a topical anaesthetic first to numb the area. This will make the treatment more comfortable for you.
For optimal results, we advise our patients to have a course of three PRP treatments, which will need to be spaced 3-4 weeks apart.
What can I expect after PRP hair treatment?
After your PRP treatment, it is completely normal to see some slight redness in the scalp area. You may also see some inflammation at the injection sites and your scalp may feel itchy for a few days after your treatment.
Your doctor will give you some aftercare advice on how to protect the scalp and promote healing. This will include:
- Using a cold compress to ease any swelling or pain
- Avoid washing your hair or using hair products for 24 hours
- Avoid strenuous exercise for 48 hours
- Avoid exposing your scalp to excessive heat such as hot showers and the sauna for 48 hours
How long does it take to see hair regrowth from PRP hair treatments?
You will need to complete a course of PRP treatment to see the best results. You may start to see improvements in the thickness or density of your hair after the first or second treatment.
You should start to see new hair growth coming through after 3-4 months. This should continue to improve over the next year. Not everyone will experience the same results. factors such as your age, genetics and overall health can impact how well you respond to this treatment.
As your hair goes through new growth cycles, the results of this treatment may not be permanent. This is why we recommend top-up PRP treatments to maintain your results every 12-18 months.
