Our blood is made up of red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma. Plasma, is the liquid part of the blood which flows and carries blood cells and nutrients to various organs throughout the body. Platelets are tiny cells in the which ,when bleeding occurs, rush to any site of injury,  to block and form a clot and repair the damage. Platelets are also known to be a reservoir of growth factors that stimulate tissue recovery by increasing blood flow. They are known to be responsible for stimulating and enhancing hair follicle function. Protein rich plasma is a type of processed blood plasma which includes a concentration of plasma from which red blood cells and white blood cells are removed. The processed protein rich plasma extracted from the patient’s own blood is then injected into his/her scalp to stimulate hair growth. To ensure the provision  of superior and the best PRP treatment in Mumbai and around the country, Luvayaa skin clinic has prioritized surveying the patient’s medical history and whether or not he/she is best suited to undergo  PRP treatment for hair loss to ensure the patient’s safety and well being .

PRP procedure:

As PRP therapy involves injecting your own blood into your scalp, you aren’t at risk of contracing a communicable disease. Still, any therapy that involves injections always carries a risk of side effects such as:

1. Injury to blood vessels or nerves
2. Infection
3. Calcification at the injection points
4. Scar tissue

PRP treatment is generally a three step procedure

Step 1: Drawing a patient’s blood and putting it in a centrifuge to separate the fluids.

Step 2: After about 10 minutes in the centrifuge, the blood will have separated into in three layers:

• platelet-poor plasma
• platelet-rich plasma
• red blood cells

Step 3: The platelet rich plasma is drawn into a syringe and then injected into areas of the scalp that require increased hair growth.

For a patient to be medically cleared to undergo PRP treatment a criteria has to be fulfilled, which is:

• A patient is not completely bald and has low-density hair.
• Does not smoke heavily and consumes alcohol occasionally.
• Does not suffer from medical conditions such as chronic skin or liver disease, cancer, metabolic disorders, blood disorders such as platelet dysfunction syndrome, thrombocytopenia and hemodynamic instability.

Advantages of PRP Treatment for Hair Loss :

1. The procedure is quick and is usually over within an hour.
2. Requires very less recovery time. The patient can continue with his/her daily tasks right after the procedure.
3. Involves minimal side-effects limited to soreness and redness of skin for a day or two.
4. It involves no surgical incisions and only the injections.

Keeping in mind these advantages and minimal side effects of PRP treatment .Luvayaa skin clinic is committed on leveraging from these advantages with the goal of providing quality PRP treatment in Mumbai and generate promising results.

Other hair loss treatments include Hair transplant surgery also known as ‘restoration surgery’ , it involves a dermatologist or a skin specialist removing  tiny patches of a patient’s skin each containing one to several strands of hair and implanting these patches into the bald sections ,follicle by follicle. Major drawback of hair transplant surgery is that a patient has to go through multiple surgeries to get the desired results.
