Plasma Injections for Hair Growth

Mechanism and potential benefits

PRP involves drawing a small amount of blood, concentrating platelets, and injecting them into thinning scalp areas. Platelets contain growth factors that may stimulate follicles and improve blood flow. Treatment planning considers hair loss stage, scalp health, and medical history. Progress is reviewed at set intervals.

• PRP, platelet-rich plasma, often studied in androgenetic alopecia
• i-PRF, injectable platelet-rich fibrin, may release growth factors gradually
• GFC, growth factor concentrate, prepared for targeted delivery
• ACell+PRP, matrix-assisted PRP that may aid tissue repair

PRP alongside other regenerative options

PRF uses a fibrin matrix that can extend growth factor activity compared to PRP. GFC is a processed concentrate from the patient’s blood with minimal additives. Combined therapies such as ACell+PRP or exosome therapy are chosen after clinical review. Microneedling and mesotherapy may be used with PRP to improve nutrient absorption.

Diffuse thinning in women may respond to PRP plus mesotherapy. Patchy thinning in men might benefit from GFC with microneedling. Dr. Sahoo assesses scalp condition and patient goals before deciding the protocol.

Treatment process and patient notes

Sessions are in-clinic. Steps include blood draw, centrifugation, preparation, and targeted injections with fine needles. Session frequency depends on the plan. Mild tenderness can occur briefly. Patients should avoid vigorous scalp washing for 24 hours and follow given post-care instructions.

Follow-ups track hair density, texture, and shedding. Most appointments last under an hour, with repeat visits spaced weeks apart. Any patient images used are consented and anonymized.
