PRP Hair Transplantation

PRP Hair Transplantation: There are basically 3 cells in human blood. The cells that enable clotting are called platelets. In case of vascular injury, platelets carry out the biological event called coagulation to prevent blood from flowing out of the vessel. Clot formation prevents blood from flowing to the vessel wall. In addition, platelets secrete the growth factors and various proteins they contain into the environment to repair the damaged vessel and tissue.

Prp hair transplantation, that is, platelet-rich plasma, is the name given to the process of purifying platelets and growth factors by passing human blood through various stages.

PRP treatment has been used successfully in medicine for many years, especially in orthopedics, dentistry and surgery branches. In recent years, it has been increasingly used for dermatological and cosmetic problems. It is used successfully in the treatment of hair diseases, especially in cases of hair loss, due to the growth factors it contains and the fact that it triggers new vascular development.

Effects of PRP treatment

PRP treatment stimulates new vascular development and increases the nutrition and blood supply of hair follicles. It causes an increase in hair diameter compared to before treatment. Thus, a fuller and more voluminous appearance is achieved in the hair. It stimulates the weakened hair follicles and enables them to become normal hair.

There is no standardized method in the preparation of PRP. Currently, there are more than 150 ready-made commercial kits for this procedure around the world. The method used and the platelet count of the patient to be treated are very important in the effectiveness of the treatment. For an effective treatment, it is recommended that the procedure be performed under the supervision of a specialist doctor.
