Is PRP Hair Regrowth Safe?
The safety of PRP therapy is assured because the patient's own blood is used, which greatly
reduces the chance of allergic reactions or infections. However, with any procedure, there are
side effects.
Possible Side Effects
Mild swelling or bruising at injection sites.
Temporary scalp tenderness.
Expert Insight:
"PRP therapy is one of the safest treatments for hair loss available today," explains Dr. Emily
Larson, a trichologist with over 15 years of experience. "The key is to ensure the procedure is
performed by a qualified specialist who follows strict sterilization protocols."
How Much Does PRP Hair Regrowth Cost?
The cost of PRP therapy varies depending on factors such as location, provider expertise, and
the number of sessions required.
Typical Price Range:
Per Session: $500 - $1,500.
Full Treatment (3-6 sessions): $1,500 - $6,000.
The outlay for an initial treatment session is high. However, compared to surgery and lifetime
topical therapy, most patients feel it to be a cost-effective investment.
What Does the PRP Procedure Feel Like?
Step-by-Step Process
Blood Draw
This is exactly like a standard blood test in which a sample is drawn from your arm.
Centrifugation
Blood is spun, and the plasma rich in platelets is isolated.
Scalp Injections: The PRP is injected using a fine needle into targeted scalp areas.
"I was worried about the pain but it felt more like mild pinpricks." says Sarah a 34 year old PRP
patient. "I was able to go to work the very same day."
How Long Will the Effects Last?
The duration that the effects will last varies by individual factors; age, area of hair loss, and even
general health can all play factors.
