A small amount of your blood is drawn and spun to separate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP). This plasma is rich in growth factors.
It is injected into the thinning areas of the scalp to strengthen existing follicles and support regrowth. PRP is one of the most widely studied in-clinic treatments for hair thinning.
What is PRP hair treatment?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) hair treatment uses a concentrate of platelets from your own blood. The growth factors it contains are injected into the scalp to strengthen hair follicles and support regrowth.
Who is PRP hair treatment for?
- Early to moderate thinning
- Hair fall not helped by lotions alone
- Weak, fine hair
It may not be the right time if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have an active infection in the treatment area, or have reacted badly to a similar treatment before. Dr. Kajal checks this at your consultation.

How does PRP hair treatment work?
- A small blood sample is taken from your arm.
- It is spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma.
- Numbing cream is applied, and the PRP is injected into the thinning areas.
- Repeated monthly for 4 to 6 sessions.
When will you see results?
Less hair fall is usually seen after 2 to 3 sessions, and thicker hair over 3 to 6 months. Typical course: 4–6 sittings, a month apart.
What to expect on the day
Blood is drawn like a routine test and the plasma is prepared while you wait. A numbing cream keeps the injections comfortable. The scalp may feel tender for a day, and you can wash your hair the next day.
Aftercare
- Don't wash your hair for 12 to 24 hours.
- Avoid hair colour, oiling and heavy workouts for 48 hours.
- Mild tenderness settles within a day.
Is PRP hair treatment safe?
Yes. Because it uses your own blood, allergic reactions are unlikely. Mild scalp tenderness or swelling for a day is common. It may not be suitable if you have certain blood disorders.
How much does PRP hair treatment cost in Mumbai?
