Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is made from the patient's own blood. A blood sample is drawn in the same way that it is for a standard blood test. The platelets, which are high in growth factors, are separated from the blood using a centrifuge (substances required for stimulation of growth in living cells). To encourage hair growth and enhance healing, plasma (the fluid part of the blood) loaded with platelets (PRP) can be injected into the scalp and other areas.
Mesotherapy is a non-surgical procedure that promotes hair growth by injecting nutrient-rich liquid into the scalp's mesoderm, which is a layer that lies between the skin's tissue and the layer of lipids.
How does Mesotherapy work:
• Vitamins, minerals, and DHT (dihydrotestosterone) blockers are mixed together and injected into the mesoderm to encourage hair growth and reverse hair loss. (DHT is an androgen hormone that damages scalp hair follicles.)
• It is then painlessly injected into your scalp with the use of an injection gun.
• It works because it enhances cell metabolism, stimulates collagen, restores vitamins and minerals that we lose as we age, and neutralizes the DHT (follicle-killing) hormone, preventing hair loss and boosting hair growth.
• The treatment consists of eight sessions, each lasting half an hour and scheduled every two weeks. By the fifth session, effects are obvious, and the treatment has a 90-92 percent success rate.
• It works to cure androgenetic alopecia, as well as hair loss caused by other factors like nutritional deficiencies, chronic disease, weather changes, stress, and so on. It can be used to treat balding, uneven hair loss, and progressive hair thinning, as well as dandruff.
PRP hair restoration is a cutting-edge procedure for stimulating hair follicles and resulting in healthier, more robust hair growth. Hair follicles that aren't producing hair may be wounded, weakened, or inactive rather than dead. Platelet-rich plasma contains growth factors that can activate adult stem cells in non-producing hair follicles, increase cell proliferation, and promote the construction of new blood vessels to transport blood and nutrients to the regenerated follicles.
A local anesthetic is used to numb the target areas of the scalp before treatment begins. PRP is injected into the scalp using a small needle, focused on the areas with the most significant hair loss. To enhance the regenerating effects of the PRP treatment, injections are given in a precise pattern.
After PRP hair restoration injections, most patients report very little discomfort that may be treated with over-the-counter pain relievers. For one or two days after the treatment, there may be slight swelling of the forehead. Avoid strenuous exercise until the swelling has gone down entirely. After the treatment, you can start washing your hair normally.
PRP injections are a non-surgical hair restoration procedure that has a quick recovery time, no scars, and natural-looking results. After a PRP hair restoration process, many patients notice new hair growth as well as an increase in density and thickness as early as two months. However, it will take four to eight months to see ideal benefits, with improvements lasting up to a year. With just one treatment, many patients see substantial and long-lasting effects.
If you are having hair loss or thinning hair over time and prefer a non-invasive or minimally invasive treatment, Novelty Clinic can create a customized treatment plan to restore your hair. PRP hair regeneration can be done alone or in conjunction with other non-surgical procedures like LLLT (low-level laser therapy). Schedule a one-on-one appointment to get a personalized plan that includes the best therapy for your condition and the look you want.
Thyroid problems. Hair loss can be caused by a variety of medical problems, including thyroid illness and iron deficiency anemia. While thyroid blood tests and other lab tests, such as a complete blood count, are normally normal in people who have normal hair loss, it is crucial to rule out underlying reasons in those who have abrupt or severe hair loss.
PRP is performed by drawing blood from a vein in the arm and centrifuging it. Platelets are isolated from the rest of the blood's components. To improve the benefits, the platelets are mixed with a specific substrate. After that, the substance is injected into the wounded or painful location. Over the course of a few weeks, the discomfort should subside as the wound heals.
A percentage of blood is taken or'drawn up' from the particular patient into a syringe for PRP therapy. The blood is subsequently separated into its constituents using a specific centrifuge. The platelet-rich plasma is then injected or micro-needled into the skin again.
A PRP treatment usually takes an hour to two hours to complete. This depends on whether the PRP is injected into the skin or micro-needled into the skin. The blood must be extracted and spun in the centrifuge for a further 30 minutes, and topical anesthetic must be administered.
While the PRP is being reinjected, some slight pain may occur. The feeling is usually described as burning or tingling. After the PRP injection, this sensation only lasts a few minutes. We make sure our customers are comfortable throughout the PRP treatment by using topical numbing lotion and ice to relieve any pain.
Patients usually feel tightness and a more even tone to their skin following PRP injections in a week or two. These improvements might last up to 6 months following therapy.
PRP injections produce long-term outcomes; however, these results vary depending on the individual's inherent variance in Platelet Rich Plasma quality as well as their lifestyle. We can only slow down the aging process, not halt it. PRP injection results can be prolonged with careful at-home skincare maintenance.
PRP can be utilized to treat any part of the body. PRP is most commonly utilized to treat the face and neck for aesthetic objectives.
There is no downtime connected with PRP injections; nevertheless, your skin may appear red following treatment. This is completely normal and anticipated. Redness might linger anywhere from one to 24 hours. Some regions of your body may also be swollen. As a result, some patients prefer to be treated at the end of the week so that they may recover over the weekend. Healing times differ from one patient to the next. If PRP injections are used with microneedling, healing may take longer.
Results can be visible after just one treatment, however the number of sessions required varies by patient. In general, three treatments are recommended, although some people may require more.
Most people are safe when PRP is utilized for cosmetic operations. PRP injections have only a few contraindications. Mild to severe swelling and redness are the most typical adverse effects of PRP injections.
During your appointment, you will be assessed to see if you are a good candidate for PRP injections. PRP injections are not recommended for patients with certain medical issues. PRP injections are not recommended for pregnant patients.
No. Corticosteroid injections are a type of synthetic corticosteroid that is injected into joints or soft tissue regions to relieve pain and inflammation. While cortisone injections in small doses can be beneficial, they do not change the underlying cause (disease process) and must be repeated often. There are several recognized hazards associated with "too much cortisone" and immune system suppression. PRP uses the patient's own blood, which contains natural growth factors that encourage tissue regeneration and reduce inflammation. PRP, unlike cortisone, is intended to be a curative therapy. The adverse effects of PRP are not the same as those of cortisone.
While everyone's pain tolerance is different, PRP injections have been reported to cause mild to moderate discomfort. Initially, a needle is used to take blood from an arm vein, and then little needles are utilized to provide the injection (s).
