  2. WHAT IS PRP? • PRP treatments are incredible procedures for facial rejuvenation and promotes hair growth. • The treatment involves the patient’s blood getting drawn and getting injected back into the skin or scalp areas.

  3. Common Myths About PRP Hair Treatment It may be because of this fascinating science that some people have difficulty understanding how PRP therapy actually works! Below, we debunk the most common myths about PRP treatment for hair loss with proven facts.

  4. PRP Hair Treatment Is Extremely Painful • Like many unfamiliar procedures, PRP hair treatment is thought to be a painful experience! It isn’t! With the precise scalp injection by a qualified specialist, pain is minimal. • Some clinics do offer a topical anesthetic for those who fear any form of discomfort.

  5. 2. PRP Is New and Medically Unproven Treatment • Contrary to popular belief, PRP therapy has actually been used for various medical conditions for more than 40 years! • PRP therapy was first used in the 1970s to treat a blood condition known as thrombocytopenia. Since then, it has been used in several medical fields such as orthopedic surgery, cardiology, ophthalmology, myology, and cosmetology. • It became a top treatment for hair loss in 2004.

  6. 3. PRP Is Not Effective for Hair Loss • As it has been used globally as an effective hair loss treatment for nearly 20 years, this PRP myth debunks itself. • The concentrated platelets work to stimulate the existing stem cells of the follicles to grow in addition to promoting new follicle development.

  7. 4. PRP Hair Treatment Only Works for Men • The myth that PRP therapy was created to resolve men’s hair loss was perhaps developed from the notion that this condition is a male problem. • Age, disease, hormones, and follicle damage can cause hair loss in both men and women. • PRP requires the use of the patient’s blood, regardless of the gender.

  8. 5. PRP Hair Treatment Is Expensive • Hair loss treatments are part of the global market exceeding $300 million dollars. • The cost of PRP therapy is a fraction of the costs for prescription medication and home remedy treatments.

  9. 6. PRP Treatment Is Risky • As PRP therapy is not a surgical treatment, it is not considered a risky procedure in comparison to other hair loss treatments.

  10. 7. PRP Is Only Beneficial for Skin • While mild and severe skin problems can be treated with PRP therapy, the science behind this amazing remedy allows for treatment of other blood-related conditions too. • PRP was initially created to increase the platelet count of the blood condition known as thrombocytopenia. Since then, it has been used for joint and muscle injuries, hair loss, and torn tendons.

  11. 8. PRP Only Works for Pain Relief • Pain relief from these types of internal injuries of the joints, tendons, muscles, and tissue damage can be provided with PRP therapy. • As the body’s healing process is supported with this treatment, new growth of blood vessels and tissue are stimulated. The inflammation caused by diseases and injury is also treated with PRP therapy.

  12. 9. PRP Can’t Give Long-Term Results • This is a myth. While it may take several PRP sessions to have visible and tangible results, the long-term effects are mind-blowing. • For joint and muscle injuries, the healing process with PRP takes only a few weeks while facial treatments can take longer.

  13. 10. PRP Doesn’t Treat Inflammation • It does treat inflammation! Inflammation is the result of your body’s defense system reacting to an irritant such as a wound, infection, or insect bite. • Whether the redness, pain, and/or swelling is in the oral cavity, joints, or on the skin’s surface, using PRP to regenerate cells and support the blood flow helps to fight inflammation.

  14. 11. PRP Treatment Takes a Long Time to Heal • Without PRP therapy, the body’s natural healing process can take a long period of time to fight infection, inflammation, and heal injuries. • With PRP therapy, patients are able to have a treatment session and return to regular daily activities immediately afterwards.
