2.  How does PRP help with hair loss?

Accepted Answer

PRP, which stands for platelet rich plasma, as a treatment for hair loss became popular after researchers determined that high concentrations of platelets in plasma cells help promote hair growth.  It works by prolonging the growing phase of the hair cycle.  Injections of plasma are put directly into the scalp where hair loss has occurred.  PRP is thought to trigger natural hair growth and maintain it by increasing blood flow to the hair follicle. This method is often used in combination with other hair loss treatments or medications.

Question 3

3.  What is PRP?

Accepted Answer

PRP is platelet rich plasma. It helps with cell growth and it has been used for injuries as well as hair loss. Patients who have had surgeries have recovered faster with PRP therapy. In some cases, doctors will treat patients with PRP therapy prior to surgery. A patient’s own blood is drawn and placed into a centrifuge so it can be spun, causing separation.  The PRP is then pulled into a syringe and injected into the scalp.  Using PRP for hair loss is relatively low in risk, but can result in injury to blood vessels or nerves, infection, calcification, and scar tissue.
