Hair loss is a prevalent problem all over the world. Previously, it was impossible to regain the lost locks, or it was only possible with surgical options. However, the hair restoration industry has made significant advancements in recent times by introducing non-invasive and non-surgical alternatives. One of the latest advances in non-surgical hair restoration is the Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) hair loss therapy. The PRP Hair Treatment in Dubai involves injecting Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) into the scalp to counter hair shedding and trigger hair regrowth.

Who is the ideal candidate for PRP Hair Treatment?

Preparing for PRP Treatment for Hair Loss
PRP Treatment in Dubai is a simple procedure that does not require extensive preparations. However, patients may need to follow particular pre-procedural instructions. Most doctors provide their patients with guidelines about preparing for the treatment. However, some general instructions are as follows:
Wash the Scalp
Patients should wash their scalp on the morning of their treatment. It will be helpful because they may not be allowed to wash their scalp for about 24-36 hours post-procedure.
Avoid Blood-Thinning Medicines
Although it is virtually a non-surgical procedure, blood-thinning medications can affect its outcome. Therefore, it is better to avoid such medicines for at least 36-48 hours before PRP treatment.
No Strenuous Exercise
Most doctors advise their patients to avoid indulging in strenuous activities before the procedure. So, they should avoid an arduous workout session for at least 48 hours before the PRP treatment.
How is PRP Hair Treatment performed?
The entire process takes up to 90 minutes to complete compared to the day-long Hair Transplant Surgery. Moreover, it does not have an extensive recovery period like a hair transplant, which takes months to recover.
The step-by-step procedure for PRP Hair Treatment Dubai is explained below:
Step 1
The procedure starts with a staff nurse taking a blood sample from the patient.
Step 2
The blood is then centrifuged in a special apparatus to separate the platelet-rich plasma from red blood cells.
Step 3
After that, local anesthesia is applied to the scalp to numb it.
Step 4
Once the scalp is numb, PRP is administered to the entire scalp using a series of injections.
Step 5
While administering the injections, the practitioner focuses more on the balding or thinning areas.
Blood Extraction
Separation of PRP with Centrifuge
Infusion of PRP into the affected areas
Prolonged growth phase and reduced hair fall
Recovery Process
PRP Hair Treatment Dubai is a minimally invasive procedure that does not involve any incisions or stitches. Since there are no stitches, the recovery period is minimal.
Usually, the scalp remains sore and tender for about 48 hours. However, it does not hinder the ability to perform routine activities. Patients can go back to work immediately after the treatment as long as they avoid exposing the scalp to sunlight. Moreover, the doctor might also advise against washing the scalp for at least 12 hours post-treatment.
Although the recovery period is short, hair regrowth may take some time. Generally, the regrowth process begins within 2 to 3 months. However, it becomes noticeable only after 4 to 8 months and continues to improve for up to a year. A single treatment is typically enough to counter hair loss for 2 years, but this varies from person to person.
