PRP therapy for hair loss is a non-surgical and promising procedure that uses your own growth factors, obtained through a quick blood draw, to help stimulate hair growth and prevent shedding. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) plays an important role in healing and stimulates hair follicle growth by activating stem cells and other follicular cells.
PRP injections also accelerate hair growth rate.
Results from PRP therapy will vary depending on many factors, so an individual consultation can help you better understand the kind of results you can expect. Dr. Francesco Pollice can guide you through the benefits of PRP therapy in detail.
PRP therapy is a safe and effective treatment for both men and women. The process involves drawing a small amount of the patient's blood, placing it in a centrifuge to separate platelet-rich plasma from the rest of the blood, then injecting the PRP into thinning areas. For maximum comfort, anesthetic creams are available. It typically takes about 6 months and at least 3–5 sessions to see optimal hair regrowth results.

The process involves a blood draw, plasma separation via centrifuge, and PRP injection into the scalp. The entire procedure lasts around 30–40 minutes.
The treatment is generally well tolerated. You might feel slight discomfort during injections, but a local anesthetic is often used to minimize pain.
An initial cycle of 3–4 sessions is recommended, spaced 4–6 weeks apart. After that, maintenance sessions every 6–12 months depending on the individual’s response.
