So, be prepared for all of this. Don’t think PRP is only a one-time procedure. How is PRP therapy performed?

2. Blood is drawn from the patient’s arm, and put into a centrifuge, where the blood is separated into three different layers – platelet-poor plasma, platelet-rich plasma, and red blood cells. The system eliminates granulocytes that hurt tissue regeneration and wound healing. An anesthesia block is given to the nerves of the scalp to avoid any kind of pain. The platelet-rich plasma is then drawn up into a syringe to be injected into the scalp areas that require increased hair growth. The platelet-rich plasma contains many growth factors that stimulate the hair follicle’s growth. Are there any side effects with PRP? There is no risk of communicable disease in this procedure because you are being injected with your own blood. However, there could still be possibilities of infection, scar tissue, injury to blood vessels, or calcification at the injected points. But, if you have the procedure performed by an expert, the risks of any such problems is impossible. To be at the safest – Make sure to report all the medications you are on before undergoing the therapy. You will have to avoid all kinds of blood thinners, alcohol, drugs, and tobacco 1 day prior to the PRP sitting. If you have any of the conditions like cancer, chronic liver disease, low platelet count, sepsis, hemodynamic instability, or hypofibrinogenemia, you shouldn’t opt for the PRP procedure.
