First, let's take a closer look into platelet-rich plasma hair loss treatment
What is Hair PRP Treatment?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a hair regrowth treatment in which the plasma cells promote hair growth on the scalp. It involves taking the patient’s blood, extracting platelet-rich plasma from it, and injecting it into the scalp. Platelet-rich plasma is highly nutrient-dense. These nutrients stimulate the hair follicles in the scalp leading to hair regrowth.
What is the Cost of Hair PRP Treatment in Mumbai?
The cost of hair PRP treatment in Mumbai ranges from Rs. 2000 to Rs. 2500. However, the cost of hair PRP treatment also depends on several factors.
Following factors affect the cost of hair PRP treatment:
- Doctor’s experience
- Equipment’s quality used for treatment
- Number of sessions needed to achieve visible results
- Clinic’s location
Who is the Ideal Candidate for Hair PRP Treatment?
Our acupuncturist in Mumbai Central recommends PRP treatment for those who have bald spots on their scalp due to hair loss and thinning over time.
Platelet-rich plasma is more effective for people who are suffering from acute hair loss. However, reactivating dormant hair follicles to function again becomes a difficulty. Platelet-rich plasma is not ideal for a bald scalp.
Let’s know the stepwise procedure of hair PRP treatment:
How is the Hair PRP Treatment Performed at Your Acupuncture Clinic in Mumbai Central?
First, our acupuncturist in Mumbai Central will draw blood from the patient’s arm using a butterfly needle. Then, our acupuncturist will transfer the blood into a tiny tube.
Next, our acupuncturist will place the tube in a centrifuge, a machine that separates blood components based on density. In the centrifuge, the blood tube revolves on a fixed axis. This procedure takes 10 minutes and separates the blood into three layers:
· Platelet Rich Plasma (Upper Layer)
· White Blood Cells and Platelets (Middle Layer)
· Red Blood Cells (Base Layer)
Further, our acupuncturist will inject the platelet-rich plasma into bald or hair thinning regions on the scalp to promote hair growth.
After 6 to 12 months, noticeable hair growth is visible. The outcomes may vary from one patient to another.
