What is PRP or Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy?<\/h2>\n
\"PRP<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy (aka the vampire treatment) is a new \u201coff label\u201d treatment for hair loss conditions such as alopecia areata (\u2018spot baldness\u2019) and androgenetic alopecia (male pattern hair loss and female pattern hair loss), do you see me.<\/p>\n

What Happens During PRP Treatment?<\/h3>\n

Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy can be broken down into three main steps.<\/p>\n

\"Obtain<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n
\n

Step One:<\/span> Retrieve Plasma<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
Obtaining plasma, a component found within blood, is the main goal of this step1<\/sup>. This is obtained by removing a small amount of blood from your arm. The amount of blood needed is only a fraction of what is taken when you donate blood.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\"Activate<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n
\n

Step Two:<\/span> Activation of Platelets<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
Platelets located in your drawn blood are then concentrated2<\/sup>. Activated platelets are used in PRP as they contain healing properties and growth factors. Growth factors can encourage hair growth as they help in the development of new blood vessels and can promote the survival of hair follicles3<\/sup>.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\"Inject<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n
\n

Step Three:<\/span> Injection<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
The last step of PRP is to inject these activated platelets into hair loss areas.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
