PRP hair treatment in Islamabad is very effective in the early to moderate hair loss stage. It is a non-invasive process to help individuals grow their hair faster than using oil, hair serums, and over-the-counter medications. This happens because plasma from the patient’s blood is injected into the parts of the scalp where patients have extreme thinning. The plasma is rich in growth factors, so in the results of these injections, the dormant hair follicles get activated and help with new, faster, and stronger hair growth, but the question is, “How Long After PRP Does Hair Grow Back?”
To know the details, continue reading.
How PRP Therapy Works for Hair Growth?
Doctors start by taking almost 20ml of patients’ blood and placing it into a machine, which spins it at such a high speed that the plasma gets separated from the blood. Then, doctors using sterile injection needles inject the separated plasma into the scalp. The process is painless, as a number-mining cream or topical anesthesia is applied before the treatment.
The plasma strengthens the hair follicles, extends the period of the anagen phase in which hair grows, and also helps improve scalp health, thus resulting in new and healthy hair growth over time.
How Long After PRP Does Hair Grow Back?
After getting a first session of PRP therapy, you get to see the full-fledged results after 3 to 6 months, though you will see less hair fall than before, stronger hair, and improved scalp health. These are initial results. To experience thickness and density with hair growth, patients have to wait 6 to 12 months with consistent sessions.
Factors That Affect PRP Hair Growth Results:
- Age and stage of hair loss.
- Hormonal balance.
- Overall scalp health.
- Consistency of sessions.
PRP Hair Growth Timeline Month by Month:
Month 1:
After getting the PRP injection, the first month is characterized by a healing and stabilization stage in which your scalp gets back to normal after injections.
Hair follicles get stronger and healthy and the first sign you get that your treatment is working is that you will see much less hair fall.
Months 2 to 3:
In this phase, you will see improvement in control of hair loss, and with that, there will be new baby hair growth on thinning areas, and existing hair will look healthier and thicker.
Months 4 to 6:
At this point, patients see some actual results with thicker and denser hair growth that fills out the treated areas. The hair star is growing rapidly.
After 6 Months:
After 6 months, you will see full, healthier, and denser hair growth covering your head. At this point, doctors suggest continuing to have some sessions of PRP to make this growth stronger and better.
How Many PRP Sessions Are Needed for Visible Results?
On average doctors to achieve visible and healthier hair growth, one must have 3 to 6 sessions, 4 to 6 weeks apart. This will result in thicker, healthier, and stronger hair with almost zero hair loss. These results will take 3 to 6 months, so it is best to consult a PRP specialist to know what will suit you the best.
Is PRP a Permanent Solution for Hair Loss?
No, it is not. Though it is very effective, maintenance sessions are required from time to time. For a permanent option, go for hair transplant surgery.
Does hair shed before it grows back?
Yes, hair is shed after a PRP session, and then new and stronger hair grows back.
Is PRP painful?
No, topical anesthesia is applied to make the process comfortable.
Can PRP regrow completely bald areas?
No, it is not effective for bald patches as it requires active dormant follicles.
