What Is PRP Hair Treatment?

PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. A small amount of blood is taken from your arm and spun in a centrifuge. The spin separates the platelets, which carry natural growth factors, from the rest of the blood. This concentrated plasma is then injected into the parts of your scalp where hair is getting thin.

The growth factors support weak follicles, improve local blood supply and help slow active shedding. Because the plasma comes from your own body, the risk of allergy or rejection is very low. PRP works on follicles that are still alive. It cannot bring back hair on a fully bald area, and a good clinic will tell you that before you start. PRP is often the first step in hair loss treatment in Lahore for people who are not yet ready for surgery.

PRP Hair Treatment Candidates

• Early thinning: men and women who notice a wider part, a see-through crown or a thinner ponytail.
• Active hair fall: people who shed more than usual and want to protect the hair they still have.
• Transplant patients: patients who want to support healing and native hair around new grafts.
• Not ready for surgery: people who want a non-surgical step first, or who are too early for a transplant.
• Healthy blood profile: no active scalp infection or blood disorder that makes injections unsafe.

PRP Hair Treatment Options in Lahore

PRP Hair Treatment Sessions

1. Scalp assessment: Dr. Aneel reviews your hair loss pattern, medical history and scalp, then decides if PRP will help.
2. Blood draw: a small sample is taken from your arm, much like a routine blood test.
3. Plasma preparation: the sample is spun in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets.
4. Numbing: numbing cream is applied so the injections feel like light pressure.
5. Scalp injections: the plasma is placed across the thinning areas with fine needles.
6. Same-day return: you go home right after, usually within an hour of arriving.

PRP Hair Treatment FAQs

How much does PRP hair treatment cost in Lahore?

How many PRP sessions will I need?

Most people start with 3 to 4 sessions about a month apart, then a top-up every 4 to 6 months. Your exact number depends on how far your thinning has gone.

Can PRP regrow a bald crown?

No. PRP strengthens follicles that are still alive. Where follicles are gone, a hair transplant is the option that restores coverage.

Does PRP hurt?

Numbing cream is used first, so most patients feel mild pressure. Any tenderness usually settles within a day.

Is PRP safe?

PRP uses your own blood, so the risk of allergy or rejection is very low. Minor redness or swelling at the injection sites is the most common side effect.

Can I combine PRP with other treatments?

Yes. PRP is often paired with medication or used after a hair transplant. Dr. Aneel will suggest a combination only if it suits your case.
