About PRP for Hair Growth

It is estimated that over 80 million men and women in North America suffer from some form of hair loss.

Hair loss can be socially embarrassing for both men and women, often leading to a decrease in self confidence. PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is a simple non-surgical treatment that can help reduce hair loss and also result in up to 30% more thicker healthier hair growth.

PRP is an effective treatment option for women that have diffuse thinning over the scalp and men with early hair loss that are not yet candidates for hair transplants.

Benefits

  • Non-surgical solution to reduce hair loss with no downtime
  • Minimally invasive
  • Promotes the creation of new blood vessels and may slow down hair loss
  • Decreased inflammation around the follicle (inflammation can stunt hair growth and cause hair loss)
  • Can be combined with Hair Kits, supplements and LED cap therapy

How It Works

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) has been used for decades in various medical disciplines such as sports medicine, orthopedics, oral surgery, and neurosurgery to repair and regenerate damaged tissues. PRP has been proven effective in slowing hair loss and improving scalp hair caliber and density. It is especially useful in combating thinning hair before it increases to complete baldness.

PRP is extracted from the patient’s own blood and a result of this, there is virtually no risk of allergic reactions or side effects. Within your PRP there are at least seven different growth factors that stimulate hair growth and many others that rejuvenate the scalp tissues. At Vancouver Laser Skin Care Centre, we use the WorldPRP™ system. This system has been proven to contain the highest quality of viable platelets resulting in three times more PRP with unrivaled purity.

FAQs

Who is the ideal candidate for PRP Scalp?

The ideal candidate is one that is in the early stages of hair loss. As PRP can increase the amount of hairs in the treated area up to 30% the more hairs you have to begin with, the greater increase you will have.

How much is a PRP Scalp treatment?

As multiple treatments are required for optimal results we offer packages of 3 sessions that range from $2000 to $1800.

Is it painful and how long does it take?

The whole treatment time is approximately 1 hour however the administration of the processed PRP only takes about 15 minutes. Many of our clients tolerate the treatment well with the Zimmer (cool air) however we always have a variety of comfort measures available if needed.

I have had a hair transplant, can I still do PRP Scalp?

Absolutely! You can add the PRP Scalp treatment before or after a hair transplant. It can help with ensuring the transplanted hair is healthier and grows faster. It can also stimulate the existing thin hair to be thicker and healthier to help fill in the transplanted area.

When will I see results?

Most clients report a visual increase in fine hair growth approximately 3 months after their 3rd session. Some patients see results sooner and others require repeated treatments before visible results are seen.

What kind of downtime can I expect?

As your PRP is delivered by injection, there is always a possibility of bruising and the fluid that is added can cause temporary inflammation of the treated area.

What should I avoid after the treatment?

You can resume your normal activities right after the treatment including showering, shampooing your hair and working out. The only thing that we ask you to avoid is applying any harsh chemicals to your scalp for up to 72 hours after your treatment, this includes hair dye.
