PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is an injectable procedure that uses a preparation made from a person’s own blood. It is sometimes used as part of a hair and scalp treatment plan, but it is not appropriate for every cause of hair loss.
Why the consultation matters
Hair loss can have many causes. A consultation helps review your history, the pattern of hair loss, relevant medical factors and whether PRP is a reasonable option to discuss.
Results are not guaranteed
Response varies from person to person. A reputable consultation should discuss realistic expectations, possible side effects, treatment scheduling and situations where another medical evaluation may be more appropriate.
