What is PRP for Hair Loss?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is prepared from a sample of your own blood and injected into the scalp. It is used to support hair follicles in selected forms of thinning, but evidence and responses vary.
Who it's for
Adults with some forms of early hair thinning may be considered after the cause has been assessed. PRP does not create new follicles and may not suit longstanding bald areas or scarring hair loss.
Treatment is for adults only. Tell us about pregnancy, breastfeeding, allergies, current medicines and previous procedures so we can assess suitability.
What to expect on the day
Your clinician reviews your scalp and history, takes a blood sample and processes it to separate platelet-rich plasma. Small scalp injections follow if suitable; tenderness is possible.
Downtime and aftercare
Scalp soreness, bruising, swelling and headache can occur; infection is a risk. Follow instructions for hair washing and avoid irritating scalp products until advised. Seek advice for worsening pain, redness or fever.

FAQs
Will PRP regrow all my hair?
No. Response depends on the cause and stage of hair loss. Some people notice little or no change, and medical assessment or other management may be more appropriate.
Who may need to postpone treatment?
Active infection, pregnancy or breastfeeding, certain medicines and relevant health conditions may affect suitability. Tell the clinician your full history; do not stop prescribed medicines without medical advice.
What will recovery involve?
Scalp soreness, bruising, swelling and headache can occur; infection is a risk. Follow instructions for hair washing and avoid irritating scalp products until advised. Seek advice for worsening pain, redness or fever.
How many treatments will I need?
The plan depends on the concern, chosen method and your response. A single procedure, staged care or no treatment may be recommended; there is no standard course suitable for everyone.
Are results guaranteed?
