Toronto PRP treatment
Does it really promote hair growth?
PRP injections for hair are new in the world of hair restoration, but they are not new to established medical treatment. This innovative, non-surgical procedure works by injecting your blood’s platelet-rich plasma into the areas of hair loss. PRP treatments in Toronto hair transplant clinics are now being used to stimulate dormant follicles, increase density, and promote hair cell growth. The non-surgical therapy is also proving useful to expedite the healing process after a hair transplant surgery.
Doctors are pleased with the benefits of this treatment, in part because the whole process is so safe and natural. That means that PRP is an option for a wide variety of people and carries very few risks. Before it was used to stimulate hair growth, platelet-rich plasma was well established as a healing agent in sports medicine, dental and facial surgery, arthritis and joint pain, and even cardiac surgery.
Studies are ongoing to measure and quantify the value of PRP use in hair treatment. The preliminary benefits are impressive, however. An average of 30% to 40% improvement in growth, density, and hair thickness is usually reported after 1 treatment.

Platelet-rich Plasma Therapy (PRP)
The science behind PRP
This simple, in-office therapy utilizes platelets from your blood, which play an essential part in your body’s healing process. Platelets are your first defence against bleeding, and they stimulate the healing of skin and tissue. Blood contains red and white cells plus platelets, and we separate just the clear serum and platelets for this targeted treatment. Naturally, platelets send signals to damaged cells to regenerate, and they stimulate angiogenesis (blood vessel formation). Fibroblasts, collagen, and elastin, which form the structure and matrix for new cell growth are bolstered by PRP application. Hair stem cells within follicles accelerate their growth and have shown measurable increases in shaft thickness after treatment.
Platelet-rich plasma has been used in other medical fields for decades to promote healing after surgery or severe injuries like burns. Hair transplant surgeons utilizing these healing benefits in conjunction with transplantation soon discovered that PRP could also be used on its own to encourage hair growth. It’s now one of the leading non-surgical methods of preventing hair loss and increasing hair thickness.
