Platelet rich plasma drawn from your own blood, concentrated and injected into the scalp to support thinning hair. It is a measured, evidence led option, best understood as a programme rather than a quick fix.
PRP stands for platelet rich plasma. A practitioner takes a small sample of your blood, spins it in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, then injects that plasma into the scalp where hair is thinning. The idea is to support the existing follicles and encourage thicker, healthier growth.
The evidence is promising rather than guaranteed, and results vary considerably between individuals. PRP tends to help early thinning more than advanced hair loss, and it works best as part of a wider plan that a clinician maps out, sometimes alongside prescribed topicals. It is not a transplant and it cannot regrow hair from a follicle that is already gone.
