Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is an emerging and safe therapy with excellent results for growing hair in both men and women with alopecia. It is gaining popularity all over the world for its benefits and being widely used for several other indications including facial rejuvenation, Non-surgical face lift also called Vampire face lift (because of the blood components being injected), acne scar treatment, wound healing etc.

Understanding PRP therapy:

What is PRP? How does it work?

PRP or platelet-rich plasma is derived from one’s own blood. It contains a high concentration of platelets in a small volume of plasma. Platelets are a rich source ofseveral growth factors like Transforming growth factor (TGF), FGF, VEGF etc. The activated platelets from PRP release these growth factors into the tissue which results in multiplication and growth of cells of the skin, hair etc and collagen synthesis. This contributes to the clinical benefits in PRP therapy.

How is PRP performed?

In this procedure, blood is drawn and processed in tubes containing a specialized ACDA medium and centrifuged by a double spin method using standard protocols. This separates the platelets from other components of the blood. The platelets are then activated by adding activators such as calcium to obtain plate let rich plasma.The final output is platelet-rich plasma that contains four to eight times more number of platelets/ml compared to normal plasma. This platelet-rich plasma is injected on the area to be treated with a sterile syringe or used in conjunction with an instrument called dermaroller.

What are the risks of PRP therapy?

Since the PRP is prepared from your own blood components, it is an extremely safe procedure. Mild pain may occur, but this is minimal. Risk of infections would be negligible.

How many treatment sessions are needed?

Usually 3-4 sessions are needed to see visible results. Ideally 5-6 sessions are recommended over 1-2 months intervals for the best results.

Is there a need for restriction in activities after a PRP injection?

No. You can do all your routine activities of daily living. You can even go back to work right away.

Understanding LASER Hair Reduction.

Why does one have excessive hair?

Most people have excessive hair due to genetic factors and have no underlying medical problems. Some have excess hair due to certain hormonal disturbances; such individuals may have menstrual irregularities, excess weight and acne in addition to excess hair.

Certain medications can also lead to excess hair growth.

What are the advantages of LASER Hair removal over other hair removal methods?

Shaving, waxing, plucking and depilatory creams are temporary hair removal methods. They only remove the hair shaft and the hair roots are left behind. Some of these methods are messy, some are painful and all are temporary. Electrolysis, involves introducing a thin electric proble into the hair follicle and destroying it by passing an electric current. This was the only permanent hair removal method in the past. It is extremely time consuming as treatment is done hair by hair and can result in scarring.

LASER hair removal is the latest method that gives long lasting results. It is a convenient and more effective method and even large areas can be treated with ease.

How does LASER hair removal work?

The LASER device produces a beam of highly concentrated light of specific wave length. This light is absorbed by the pigment cells within the hair follicle and transmitted to the hair follicle which gets destroyed.

Work well for treating hair over any part of the body and the whole body
can be treated as well.

LASERs DO NOT,

Work equally for all patients. Individuals with dark hairs and fair skin respond best to treatment. White hair does not respond to LASER treatment.

What can I expect from the LASER treatment?

With each treatment session the hair becomes finer, lighter, fewer and its growth reduced.
Multiple sessions would be needed to achieve significant hair reduction.
There may be a small risk of pigmentation of skin after laser treatment that will usually resolve with time and sun protection. Skin lightening creams may be necessary at times.
