Unusual Treatment, Unusual Results
You may be a little nervous when you learn that PRP treatment(PRP Injections) actually works using your own blood. A safe process removes the concentrated platelet from your blood required for treatments. A single blood collection is performed and you can be certain your blood will be clearly marked and stored prior to your treatment. The PRP is applied directly to the scalp and helps to stimulate production of main structural proteins of the various connective tissues as well as hair growth in both men and women.
The Procedure and Side Effects
PRP Injections will be made directly to the scalp and you can discuss various methods to help lessen the discomfort from pinpricks with your doctor. Because of the injections you can expect to experience some swelling and bruising as well as reddening for 24-48 hours. The procedure itself varies on the length based on the area being treated. However an average treatment lasts between 1 -2 hours.
Expected Results
Results for this procedure are not immediate and you will need several treatments. You can expect to see improvements within two weeks and gradual, progressive hair growth over the months following treatment.
