Plasma Therapy for Hair Loss Treatment
Hair loss is an issue that has troubled men for centuries. There are multiple hair treatment options available today to treat hair baldness. Plasma therapy for hair treatment is one of the viable options available for you. It allows you to prevent hair loss at its early stage. It is a simple but effective procedure that has treated several individuals suffering from hair loss. With its cost-effective feature, it is one of the most preferred hair treatment procedures. The viability of the treatment in curing androgenetic alopecia and non-scarring alopecia is also remarkable, making it a popular choice. With an emphasis on growth factors that help the hair follicles, plasma therapy for hair facilitates better hair growth and overall hair health environment.
Significance of Plasma and Platelets in Plasma Hair Treatment
Platelets and plasma are two distinct components of plasma hair treatment. Following are the functionalities of these two components, making them a preferable choice:-
Platelets
Platelets act as the repairing aid to the body. When a cut or wound occurs in the body, platelets are the first that reach the associated area. They enable healing and stop the bleeding occurring in the body. These are injected into the scalp to facilitate hair treatment, and their concentrated dosage repairs the damaged follicles to amplify the healing process.
Plasma
Plasma is a part of blood that holds water, salts, enzymes, and blood cells in a suspension. The prior function of the same is to ferry hormones, nutrients, and proteins to all body parts and remove the waste from cells.
Benefits of Plasma Hair Transplant
Following are the benefits of plasma hair transplant, making them a viable and reliable hair treatment:-
Non-Surgical Hair Treatment: These are minimally invasive hair treatments and can be performed without applying surgical procedures. Dermatologists perform this treatment using a needle to inject platelet-rich plasma into the affected area.
Non-Scarring: This treatment does not leave any scars, making it a suitable option for people willing to have a hair treatment to improve their aesthetics.
Safety: The non-surgical attribute of plasma hair transplant makes it a safer option. One of the reasons this treatment is safe is because your body cells are used. It eradicates the risk associated with the allergic reactions that may occur due to external affiliation.
Effectiveness: These are among the most effective treatments that provide a person with the desired outcomes. These show effect within three months of treatment and visible changes after one year.
What is PRP Hair Treatment?
PRP stands for Platelet Rich Plasma. The fundamental idea behind this treatment is rather simple – the platelet in your blood is used to treat Androgenetic Alopecia, PRP hair treatment is formed when red blood cells and a portion of white blood cells are eliminated from the plasma and platelets. The result is a rich concentration of platelets in the plasma.
PRP Hair Loss Therapy is a non-invasive hair loss treatment in which a mixture of PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is growth-injected factors into the patient’s scalp that, provide strength to the miniaturized hair follicles and make them healthier. The primary role that platelets play is that they help in the clotting of blood. Besides, hundreds of proteins called growth factors are also contained in platelets that are imperative for healing injuries.
As the name suggests, PRP is nothing but plasma with a greater concentration of platelets than what is typically found in blood. The increase in concentration of platelets and hence, the growth factors can be 5 to 10 times greater (or richer) than usual. The patient's blood is drawn to develop a PRP preparation, and the platelets are separated from other blood cells. The concentration of platelets is increased through a process called centrifugation. After completing this process, the increased concentration of platelets is added to the remaining blood.
How is PRP Hair Treatment Performed?
The PRP process is initiated by drawing a small blood sample of 30 to 60cc from the patient. This blood sample is then spun in a centrifuge that creates the concentrated PRP. After this, the PRP is injected in the areas of the scalp where treatment is required. Local anesthesia is usually administered to numb the scalp region for sensation of pain. The entire procedure is complete under an hour from start to finish.
Platelets can cause growth of hair follicles through stimulation of the stem cells as well as other cells in the microenvironment of the hair follicle. These platelets are multipurpose as they promote healing, response to injury and formation of new cellular growth, accelerate the rate and degree of tissue healing and regeneration. However, the prime purpose of using PRP in restoring hair is to make the inactive or newly implanted hair follicles to enter the growth phase.PRP therapy is conducted under expert guidance and by specialized professionals. At Berkowits you will find such professionals who are adept at performing this therapy since many years.
While it is known to stop hair loss it can also reverse the miniaturization of the hair caused by androgenic alopecia or male pattern baldness. Multiple sessions (3-4 sessions) are recommended.This is not a surgical procedure, it is a non-invasive procedure which leaves no scar. The blood is extracted is much lesser than the amount that is generally extracted in blood donation camps. It is also done under a topical anesthesia and therefore does not hurt.

How does PRP work in restoring hair?
PRP hair treatment is infused through injections into the scalp to stimulate existing hair for faster growth with enhanced thickness. When used as an addition in hair transplant, these PRP injections readily help in optimizing survival rate of the grafts and boost hair growth.
What's the turnaround time for hair growth?
PRP works on the principle of blood flow stimulation around the scalp. After the procedure, there could be a slight swelling around the site of the treated scalp area. This is an indicator of the hair growth process. Hereafter, the hair follicles begin to emerge stronger and at a much faster rate. This process takes place within 6 weeks right after the treatment. As for hair growth, 3 to 4 months is the normal turnaround time for visible signs of results. To improve upon the results, the patient can choose to go for a second PRP session as well.
