Rejuvenation from within — using the restorative potential already present in your own blood.
What PRP is, how it is prepared from your own blood, and how it is used for skin quality and for hair and scalp health. The document covers each skin treatment area, who scalp PRP may suit and why a series is typical, and how to prepare for an appointment and care for the treated area afterwards.
Educational use only. This guide does not diagnose a condition, recommend a therapy, or promise an outcome. PRP and microneedling with PRP are not FDA-approved for the cosmetic and hair-restoration uses described here, and evidence varies by treatment area and by patient. PRP is not a surgical lift or a dermal filler, and a series of treatments is typical rather than exceptional. Hair loss needs its own diagnosis before treatment is selected. Never stop prescribed aspirin, anticoagulants, or antiplatelet medication before a procedure without permission from the prescribing clinician. Call 911 for trouble breathing, severe facial or throat swelling, chest pain, fainting, or signs of a severe allergic reaction.
