Plasma therapy for hair: the secret of density and natural shine ^Advertising

Thin, dull, brittle, and most importantly, rapidly thinning hair. If this is you, it's time to pay attention not only to shampoos but also to medical cosmetology. Plasma therapy, or PRP therapy, is considered to be one of the most effective procedures for hair loss and hair growth stimulation. And the most interesting thing is that it works at the expense of your own body resources.

What is plasma therapy for hair?

This is an injection procedure in which the patient's autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is injected into the scalp. Plasma activates dormant follicles, improves microcirculation and stimulates natural hair growth. All this - without chemicals, drugs or surgery.

First, a small amount of blood is taken from your vein into a special test tube. Then it is placed in a centrifuge, which separates the plasma. It is this plasma that the doctor injects into the scalp with microinjections. The entire procedure takes about 40 minutes, and the first results can be seen in a few weeks.

What are the benefits of PRP therapy for hair?

1. Absolute biocompatibility. Since your own plasma is used for injections, there is no risk of allergic reactions or rejection.
2. Natural results. The procedure activates natural growth and repair processes. Hair grows stronger, thicker, without excessive stimulation or hormonal influence.
3. Complex effect. PRP therapy affects not only the follicles, but also the condition of the scalp: blood circulation improves, inflammation decreases, and oil content normalizes.
4. Minimal invasiveness. Injections are performed with very thin needles, the procedure is almost painless, and the recovery period is minimal.
5. Long-lasting effect. After a course of 3-5 procedures, the result lasts on average up to a year, and sometimes even longer.
6. Suitable for women and men. Effective for various types of alopecia and hair conditions, regardless of gender.

Who is the procedure for?

Plasma therapy is recommended for those who:

• Lose hair due to stress, hormonal disorders, or heredity.
• Have weak, dull, thin or damaged hair.
• Experienced seasonal hair loss.
• Has had a covid or other serious illness and noticed a noticeable thinning of the hair.
• Has the initial stage of androgenetic alopecia (both in men and women).

What is the effect of hair plasma therapy?

The main thing that patients expect is to stop hair loss. In most cases, after 2-3 procedures, hair loss is significantly reduced. But plasma does not only block hair loss - it stimulates the growth of new hair, makes the strands thicker, shinier, and improves the overall condition of the scalp.

Additional "bonuses" include reduced flaking, reduced oiliness, and improved hair structure. And the effect of the course lasts up to 8-12 months.

How safe is it?

Since the procedure uses the patient's own blood, it has almost no risks: no allergic reactions, minimal side effects. After the session, there may be slight redness or swelling at the injection sites, but they disappear in a day.

Are there any contraindications?

Yes, as with any medical procedure. It is not recommended to undergo PRP therapy in case of:

• Oncological and autoimmune diseases,
• acute infections,
• problems with blood clotting,
• diabetes mellitus and other chronic diseases in the stage of decompensation;
• pregnancy and lactation.

Before the procedure, a consultation with a trichologist is mandatory.

Recommendations after a plasma therapy session for hair

• Do not wash your hair for 12 hours after the procedure.
• Avoid saunas, swimming pools, and hot showers for 2-3 days after the injection.
• Avoid hair coloring or perming for at least 5-7 days.
• Do not apply aggressive care products (scrubs, alcohol lotions) to the scalp for several days.
• Avoid intense physical activity and direct sunlight in the first 48 hours.

Compliance with these simple rules allows you to get the maximum effect from plasma therapy and maintain it for a long time.

How many treatments are needed?

Depending on the condition of the hair, the course usually consists of 3-6 procedures with an interval of 2-4 weeks. After that, maintenance sessions are performed 1-2 times a year.

How much does it cost and where to get it done in Kyiv?

In Kyiv, you can undergo hair plasma therapy at the Laser House Center, a clinic with 16 years of experience in cosmetology. The procedure is performed by doctors with medical education, and the tubes are internationally certified. The cost of the session is 3950 UAH.
