Hair thinning can happen gradually—or seem like it starts overnight. If you’re noticing more hair in your brush, a receding hairline, or a loss of overall volume, you’re not alone.
At The Derm Lab, we offer PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy—an evidence-based, non-surgical treatment that uses your body’s own healing cells to stimulate hair growth and improve scalp health.
💉 What Is PRP?
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma—a component of your blood rich in growth factors and regenerative proteins.
The process is simple:
- A small sample of your blood is drawn.
- It’s spun in a centrifuge to separate the PRP.
- The concentrated PRP is injected into targeted areas of the scalp.
These injections stimulate dormant hair follicles, increase blood supply, and promote the natural regrowth cycle.
🧬 What Hair Loss Conditions Can PRP Help With?
PRP can be beneficial for both men and women experiencing:
- Androgenetic alopecia (genetic pattern baldness)
- Thinning hair due to age or stress
- Postpartum hair loss
- Hair shedding (telogen effluvium)
- Receding hairlines
- Overall reduction in scalp density
✅ Benefits of PRP Hair Restoration
- Drug-free, natural solution using your own blood
- Minimal discomfort and no downtime
- Can be combined with other treatments like Dutasteride or Minoxidil
- Supports scalp health and follicle function
- Results that improve over time with regular sessions
🕒 What to Expect During the Treatment
Each PRP session at The Derm Lab takes around 45 minutes and is designed to be comfortable, effective, and results-driven:
- A topical numbing cream is applied to the scalp
- A small blood sample is taken
- We use REGENLAB® kits—a premium PRP system backed by medical-grade research
- Your PRP is extracted, then precisely injected into thinning or receding areas
- Every session includes LED light therapy to calm inflammation and stimulate follicle activity
📆 PRP Treatment Schedule
We typically recommend a course of 6 treatments, spaced monthly over 6 months. However, if your schedule is demanding, we can tailor this to bi-monthly appointments without compromising long-term results.
Ongoing maintenance is recommended every 6–12 months, depending on your individual progress.
