Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a natural component of blood. Blood contains various cells, and platelets are primarily responsible for forming blood clots. In PRP extraction, the patient's own blood is drawn, similar to a routine blood test, and the platelets are separated and concentrated.
This platelet-rich plasma, containing growth factors and anti-inflammatory agents, is then injected back into the skin.
PRP has been shown to assist with various medical conditions, such as injuries, and is used for skin longevity and hair loss. It helps repair damaged skin cells, reduces oxidation, and combats inflammation, which are key contributors to skin aging.

However, some potential side effects may include mild pain or discomfort at the injection site, swelling, redness, and bruising. These effects are typically temporary and resolve within a few days.

PRP is proven to be an effective treatment for a variety of conditions, including hair loss and promoting skin longevity. It helps support hair follicles, improving hair density and strength, while also reducing signs of aging through its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. The effectiveness of PRP depends on the underlying condition and individual factors. Multiple treatments and combining PRP with other medical or surgical treatments might be necessary for the best outcomes in some individuals.
Even after just one PRP treatment session, you might notice significant improvements in your skin's quality and appearance. However, to achieve the maximum outcome, more than one treatment session would often be needed.

For skin rejuvenation and longevity, usually one or two sessions are needed, while hair loss treatments may require a more prolonged approach, often involving three to four sessions.
