Numbing is optional for patients and is typically administered directly into the scalp to help minimize discomfort during the treatment. This approach ensures that you remain as comfortable as possible while still receiving effective treatment.
The treatment typically involves concentrating the platelet-rich plasma to levels that can be up to 5x higher than normal blood levels. This high concentration of platelets is what makes PRP effective, as it contains growth factors that can significantly promote healing and stimulate hair growth.
We use the Amplifine kit from Suneva Medical for our PRP treatments. This kit is known for its high-quality and effective processing of platelet-rich plasma, ensuring optimal results for our patients.
Yes, hair treatments can be effectively combined with other hair treatments to maximize results. For instance, pairing PRP with hair transplants can enhance graft survival and promote faster healing. Additionally, integrating laser therapy can stimulate hair follicles and improve overall scalp health. Other options like Purasomes and topical treatments can also complement PRP by nourishing the scalp and promoting hair growth.
Many practitioners recommend starting PRP treatments a few weeks after your hair transplant. This timing helps promote healing and can significantly enhance the growth of newly transplanted hair. Additionally, PRP treatments prior to the transplant can be beneficial as they improve blood circulation and create a healthier environment for hair growth. Ultimately, the best approach will depend on your individual needs, so it’s important to discuss your options with your surgeon for a tailored plan.

PRP treatment is generally well-tolerated, as a numbing agent will be applied to your scalp beforehand. Most patients report very minimal discomfort during the procedure, and any sensation is typically mild. If you have concerns about pain or discomfort, please don’t hesitate to discuss them with us.
For optimal results, we typically recommend starting with three PRP treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart. After completing these initial sessions, it’s beneficial to have a regular maintenance treatment, every 6-12 months, to help sustain the results. This approach ensures that you get the best long-term benefits from the treatment!
