The principle

PRP hair treatment

PRP (or Platelet Rich Plasma) uses the growth factors present in the blood to stimulate the patient’s hair regrowth. The injected cells (platelets) release numerous growth factors that act directly on the hair follicles, encouraging them to strengthen existing hair and build new ones. New blood vessels also develop, improving irrigation of the treated area. PRP slows hair loss and encourages regrowth, thereby increasing hair density.

Stem cells are harvested from your own adipose tissue. When injected into the scalp, they can reverse the shrinkage of hair follicles. What makes stem cells unique is their ability to repair and heal faster. Since stem cells have specific regenerative properties, their ability to treat a variety of conditions and injuries is vast and promising. Recent research has shown that stem cells can now be injected into hair follicles to promote new hair growth.

This treatment is suitable for both men and women, regardless of age, and can be carried out all year round.

Indications

Injections of PRP and stem cells into the scalp can slow down hair loss (seasonal changes, hormonal changes, alopecia, etc.) and stimulate new growth by treating, for example, incipient baldness: hairline, temporal gulfs, baldness or diffuse alopecia. Certain scalp conditions can also be treated, such as scalp irritation, malnourished scalp or dandruff.

These injections are most effective for people in the early stages of hair loss, or for patients who are not candidates for a conventional transplant. The treatment is also ideal for women who prefer to avoid transplants or who don’t have enough quality hair to perform one.

PRP and stem cell injections can be accompanied by light therapy (LED) and scalp microneedling to optimize hair growth. This treatment is also an excellent complement to hair transplantation, to help the grafts take well and accelerate healing in the donor area.

How does the session work?

Before any treatment, a consultation with the specialist will enable us to establish the right indication, carry out a hair assessment and discuss your medical history and expectations.

PRP injections with stem cells can be performed under local anesthetic for greater comfort.

In the PRP + stem cells procedure, as in the classic PRP hair procedure, a blood sample is taken from the patient. It is then filtered to extract the Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). Mini-lipoaspiration is then performed on the abdomen, flank or hip, to obtain around ten ml of adipose tissue (fat). This part of the treatment takes about 30 minutes and is performed under local anaesthetic.

This fat is purified and then combined with PRP. The resulting serum contains around 50% fat cells and 50% PRP. It is injected into the areas affected by hair loss, using a very fine needle. The entire procedure takes an average of 1 to 2 hours. For best results, two treatments are generally recommended to patients, over a period of 3 to 6 months.

PRP and stem cells are the patient’s own components, so there is no risk of allergy or rejection. This process is 100% biocompatible.

The suites

PRP hair treatmentPRP + stem cell treatment requires virtually no downtime, although you may experience some slight pain in the liposuction area for a few days. You can, however, resume your activities the day after treatment, but avoid exercise for at least a week.

The results of stem cell therapy, like other hair loss treatments, generally take 6 to 8 months before any significant improvement in hair density.

FAQ

Are PRP hair injections effective?

Results will be visible a few weeks after treatment, as the platelets and stem cells begin to act and release growth factors.
– After the first session, hair is already silkier and thicker.
– After the second session, hair loss slows down and regeneration begins.
– After 6 months (hair cycle), regrowth is observed.
Studies show an improvement in the number of hairs per cm² ranging from 15 to 30%.
