PRP Therapy
Regenerate hair and skin — using your own growth factors.
What is prp therapy?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) uses your own centrifuged plasma — rich in growth factors — to stimulate hair follicles and support skin rejuvenation. It is a medical procedure, not a facial.
PRP uses your own blood-derived growth factors to stimulate hair follicles and rejuvenate skin. Backed by a careful trichology and skin assessment.
Who this is suitable for
- Early to moderate pattern hair loss
- Diffuse thinning after nutrition and scalp basics are corrected
- Post-pregnancy thinning that isn't recovering
- Skin rejuvenation for texture and pores
Who should avoid or postpone
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Active scalp or skin infection
- Bleeding disorders or blood-thinner use
- Very advanced hair loss (a transplant conversation is more honest)
If you're unsure whether this fits your case, message Sumaiya on WhatsApp before booking — we'd rather redirect you than treat you incorrectly.

What happens during your first prp therapy consultation?
A first consultation takes roughly 30–45 minutes. No treatment is performed before assessment and consent.

- 2. Clinical assessment (10–15 min)Sumaiya examines the skin, scalp or relevant area — grading severity, skin type, scarring pattern or nutritional markers as applicable.
- 3. Discussion of your concerns (10 min)You describe your goal, budget, downtime tolerance and event timelines. Questions are welcome — nothing is rushed.
- 4. Treatment planning (10 min)You receive a written plan: what is recommended, session count, spacing, approximate cost and what results are realistic.
- 5. Post-consultation guidanceHome-care instructions, preparation notes and a WhatsApp line for follow-up questions between sessions.

PRP vs other hair-growth treatments — how they compare
Neither option is universally better — suitability depends on your concern, skin type and goals.
| Consideration | PRP therapy | Topical / oral hair-growth treatments |
|---|---|---|
| How it works | Concentrated platelets from your own blood are injected into the scalp to support follicle activity. | Medications such as topical minoxidil or prescribed oral therapy act continuously on the follicle cycle. |
| Commitment | In-clinic sessions, usually monthly for 4–6 months, then maintenance. | Daily home application or dosing, continued long term. |
| Best for | Early to moderate thinning with follicles still present. | Ongoing maintenance and preventing further loss. |
| Comfort / side effects | Injection discomfort, temporary tenderness or mild swelling. | Possible scalp irritation, shedding phase, or medication-specific effects. |
| Limitations | Not effective on long-standing bald areas with no follicles. | Benefit typically reverses if treatment is stopped. |
| Often used | Alongside nutritional correction and home therapy. | Alongside PRP as part of a combined plan. |
This comparison is educational. The right choice is decided during your consultation after an individual assessment.
When should you consult a professional?
- The concern has persisted for more than 6–8 weeks despite home care.
- There is pain, spreading redness, discharge, bleeding or rapid change.
- You have an underlying condition (thyroid, PCOS, diabetes, autoimmune) or are on prescription medication.
- You are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning conception.
- Home remedies or over-the-counter products have caused irritation or worsening.
- You are considering a device- or needle-based procedure for the first time.
For severe pain, breathlessness, heavy bleeding or an allergic reaction, seek emergency medical care immediately — do not wait for a clinic appointment.
