What is hair PRP and how does it work?
Platelet-rich plasma is nothing more than the patient's own blood that is centrifuged to obtain platelet-rich serum. These platelets contain many granules inside, which in turn contain growth factors.

Platelet Rich Plasma for alopecia step by step
Regardless of how the treatment is indicated or with what other treatments or techniques it is complemented, hair PRP is performed in these simple steps:
Blood extraction. The patient's blood is drawn as it is done in a routine blood test.
Blood centrifugation. The previously obtained sample is centrifuged in a device specially designed for this in order to separate the plasmatic fractions of the blood from those that are not required, such as red blood cells and leukocytes.
Application or infiltration of plasma enriched in growth factors. After the previous step, calcium chloride is applied to the capillary PRP obtained so that the platelets release growth factors and, subsequently, infiltrate it into the areas to be treated.
What is the result of capillary PRP?
Principally, capillary PRP produces as a benefit an increase in the density of the patient's hair and an increase in the thickness of the existing hair. It is especially oriented to those young people with initial problems of alopecia. Therefore, in cases of severe alopecia, this treatment is not usually very effective, although it can be indicated on occasions to enhance another hair treatment.
