PRP ASSISTED HAIR GROWTH

PRP ASSISTED HAIR GROWTH

Most adult’s loose about 75 to 100 hair from their scalp everyday where some hair are in the falling phase (telogen), and some in the growth phase (anagen). As long as the process remains balanced the number of hair on the scalp remains constant. Any disturbance in this process results in hair loss. Other factors for hair loss can be metabolic imbalances, illness, stress, nutritional deficiency, pollution and genetics.

It is called platelet rich plasma therapy (PRP) for hair regrowth. PRP is a new form of regenerative medicine wherein the patients own blood is utilised and processed to produce a concentrate containing natural growth factors. This concentrate used methodically assists immensely in hair regrowth.

Apart from this the treatment includes other sessions using Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) and speciality growth serums to have a cumulative and sustained effect on hair growth
