Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive treatment designed to rejuvenate the skin and stimulate hair growth naturally. This highly effective procedure utilizes a patient’s own blood to create a concentrated plasma rich in growth factors, which is then injected into targeted areas like the scalp or face. PRP promotes the regeneration of hair follicles for hair restoration and boosts collagen production for smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
PRP therapy, also referred to as the "Vampire Facial" or "Vampire Facelift," has been scientifically proven to treat fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, pigmentation, and uneven skin tone—all without the downtime or discomfort associated with surgical procedures.
Benefits of Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy
PRP for Hair Restoration
PRP therapy is a scientifically validated, non-surgical solution for male and female pattern hair loss. Through a series of precise injections into the scalp, PRP encourages hair regeneration without the downtime or discomfort of invasive procedures. It works to restore hair density and enhance scalp health, with most patients noticing visible improvements after 3–6 sessions.
Pre-Treatment Instructions
To ensure optimal results and minimize potential side effects, please follow these guidelines before your PRP treatment:
- Avoid certain medications: Refrain from using alcohol, Aspirin, Motrin, and supplements like Omega-3 fatty acids, Vitamin E, or Ginkgo Biloba 24 hours before treatment.
- Discontinue retinoids: Stop using Retin-A 48 hours before treatment.
- Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water the day before and the day of your procedure.
- Healthy habits: Avoid smoking and alcohol, as they can affect healing.
- Hair care: Shampoo your hair thoroughly on the morning of the procedure and avoid styling products.
Post-Treatment Care
After PRP treatment, follow these steps to optimize results and ensure proper healing:
- Avoid washing: Do not wash the treated area for at least 6–8 hours.
- No makeup or skincare products: Refrain from applying makeup or harsh skincare products for 24 hours.
- Limit sun exposure: Avoid sun exposure and UV rays for 72 hours.
- Manage discomfort: If needed, take Acetaminophen for any mild discomfort.

What to Expect
Most patients experience mild redness and swelling within the first 24 hours, resembling a sunburn. These effects typically subside by the second day, leaving behind smoother, rejuvenated skin. Hair restoration patients may notice improvements in hair thickness and growth within a few months, with optimal results achieved after a personalized treatment plan.
