PRP Therapy: Effective Hair Fall Control

Hair loss is a common condition that affects all ages and genders. Beyond physical appearance, this condition seems to affect the mental well-being of individuals. Research published in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology in 2016 shows that individuals with androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness) were more vulnerable to anxiety and depression. On the other side individuals without hair loss seem to have a better quality of life compared to those suffering from this condition. Thus the necessity of treating hair loss condition is established. Now we need an effective and proven treatment to deal with it. PRP or Platelet-Rich Plasma is an ideal solution. While there are reputed cosmetic clinics that offer PRP Abu Dhabi it is better to have a basic understanding before taking the treatment.

PRP Therapy: An Overview

Basically, it is the injection of plasma, the fluid component of the blood, rich in platelets into the scalp. The platelets in the blood contain protein and growth factors that are essential for the repair of hair follicles and hair growth. Moreover, the injection of blood ensures blood flow to the scalp. This in a way nourishes hair follicles. The whole treatment is a three-step procedure:

• Step 1: Blood is collected from your body, preferably from arms, using a syringe.
• Step 2: It is collected in a centrifuge. The centrifuge after rotating for 10 to 15 minutes separates blood into three layers. These are platelet-poor plasma, platelet-rich plasma, and red blood cells.
• Step 3: In this final step the certified practitioner injects the platelet-rich plasma into the scalp.

Advantages of PRP: Why should you Choose this Treatment?

• Proven Results: Several studies support the effectiveness of this treatment. For example, a study published in the Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery in 2014 found that PRP treatment resulted in significant improvement in hair density and thickness for patients with androgenetic alopecia. Also, studies suggest that PRP contains growth factors and cytokines that may support hair follicle regeneration and vascularisation of the scalp.
• Zero Infections: Since this treatment uses the blood from your own body there are near zero chances for infections or allergic reactions from PRP in Abu Dhabi.

So an effective treatment with minimal side effects is the plus point of this treatment that makes it the best hair loss treatment plan.

Possible Side Effects

Usually, this treatment has minimal side effects such as mild pain during injection, headache, itching, swelling, and temporary discoloration in the treated area. However, if the practitioner conducting PRP Abu Dhabi is not experienced enough the treatment can result in scars, injured blood vessels, and calcification in the injection point.

Is it a Painful Treatment?

In most cases, a local anesthetic is applied to the treatment area to reduce discomfort. However, a highly qualified professional is required to ensure minimal discomfort.

How costly is PRP?

This treatment may require three to six sessions with 4 to 6 weeks of gaps between sessions. In the long run maintenance sessions will be required between 6 to 12 months. An Average estimated cost ranges from 500 to 2500 Dollars per session. So better plan your financial resources accordingly before beginning the treatment. Also keep in mind that the estimated costs may vary according to geographic location, quality of equipment, and additional nutrients added to the treatment. In addition to these considerations be mindful that your underlying health conditions such as cancer or habits such as smoking may exacerbate the side effects. In such cases, it is better to take an expert opinion before proceeding further. Consultations with a qualified and experienced professional can make taking PRP in Abu Dhabi trouble-free.
