PRP Hair Treatment
PRP hair treatment in Indiranagar for hair fall and early thinning. Growth factors from your own blood are injected into the scalp to support weak follicles, as part of a plan built on the cause of your hair loss.
What is PRP for hair?
PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. A small amount of your blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelets, which carry growth factors. The concentrated plasma is then injected into thinning areas of the scalp to support follicles that have become weak.
Who PRP suits
- Early male or female pattern hair loss, while the follicles are still alive.
- Diffuse thinning, where the parting or crown looks sparse.
- People who want to protect their hair alongside medication.
- After a hair transplant, to support the surrounding hair.
PRP cannot regrow hair in areas that are already fully bald. For those, a hair transplant is the option. PRP is also not suitable with some blood and platelet disorders, an active scalp infection or certain blood-thinning medicines, which is why a consultation comes first.
PRP or GFC?
GFC (growth factor concentrate) is also prepared from your own blood, using a method that concentrates the growth factors. Both are injected the same way. Which one suits you is decided at the consultation, based on your hair loss and preferences.
What happens in a session
- Your scalp is examined and the areas to treat are marked.
- A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm.
- It is processed to separate the platelet-rich plasma.
- The scalp is numbed, and the plasma is injected into the thinning areas.
- You can return to normal activity the same day, skipping hair wash and heavy exercise for about a day.
How many sessions, and when you see results
Most people have three to four sessions about a month apart, followed by maintenance sessions every few months. Hair fall usually slows first, and thicker hair shows over three to six months. Results vary from person to person.
PRP hair treatment in Indiranagar: common questions
It works best for early thinning and hair fall, alongside medication. It does not regrow hair on fully bald areas.
The scalp is numbed first, so most people feel pressure and brief stings rather than pain. A session takes under an hour.
Usually three to four, about four weeks apart, then maintenance every few months.
Both use growth factors from your own blood. The choice depends on your hair loss, comfort and budget, and is made at the consultation.
They do different jobs. PRP protects and thickens existing hair, while a transplant moves hair into bald areas. Read PRP vs hair transplant.
For early thinning, many people see less hair fall and thicker hair over three to six months. Results vary, and it works better alongside medication than on its own.
No. It improves hair while the underlying cause, often genetic thinning, continues, so maintenance sessions every few months keep the result.
Yes. It uses your own blood, so allergic reactions are very unlikely. Expect mild scalp tenderness for a day. It is not done with some blood disorders, a scalp infection or certain blood thinners.
It depends on the number of sessions. At Theory of Skin, Indiranagar, a hair consultation is ₹849, and PRP is quoted after your scalp is examined.
PRP hair treatment in Indiranagar works best as part of a plan: at Theory of Skin, every hair fall treatment starts with a scalp examination. If the crown or hairline is already bald, see hair transplant.
