Clinical Summary & Key Takeaways
  • Every PRF hair plan begins with an honest Registered Nurse scalp assessment: PRF strengthens thinning, viable follicles and is not a cure for completely bald areas.
  • 100% natural autologous blood is drawn and spun immediately on-site to isolate concentrated growth-factor-rich fibrin.
  • Consistent multi-session protocols and scheduled progress reviews build cumulative strand calibre and scalp vitality.

Overview of Autologous PRF Hair Follicle Therapy

Are you curious about how PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) can improve the condition of your hair? PRF is a cutting-edge treatment that leverages your body's natural healing properties to stimulate hair growth and rejuvenate thinning hair. In this comprehensive guide, we'll walk you through each step of the PRF hair treatment process, from your initial consultation to enjoying your fuller, healthier hair. Get ready to embark on a journey towards revitalized hair with our expert-led, personalized approach to PRF treatment.

1. Initial Consultation

Personalised Assessment

Your journey begins with a thorough consultation with one of our hair restoration practitioners who are Registered Nurses. During this session, we evaluate your hair health, discuss your concerns, and understand your hair restoration goals. We will always re-iterate that PRF will not regrow hair in bald spots and it is not a cure for hair loss.

2. Preparation

Custom Plan Creation

Based on the consultation, we develop a customized PRF treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. We explain the process, expected results, and answer any questions you might have.

3. Blood Draw

Natural Healing Begins

On the day of your treatment, a small amount of blood is drawn from your arm, similar to a routine blood test. This blood will be used to create the PRF.

4. PRF Processing

Magic in the Making

The blood sample is placed in a specialized centrifuge. This device spins the blood at high speeds to separate the platelet-rich fibrin from the other components. The result is a concentrated PRF solution rich in growth factors and healing properties.

5. Scalp Preparation

Ready for Action

While the PRF is being prepared, we cleanse and prepare your scalp. This might include the application of a numbing agent to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.

6. PRF Injection

Targeted Treatment

Using a fine needle, the PRF solution is carefully injected into the areas of your scalp experiencing hair thinning or loss. The growth factors in the PRF stimulate hair follicles and encourage new hair growth.

7. Post-Treatment Care

Nurturing New Growth

After the injections, we provide you with post-treatment care instructions. This includes advice on how to care for your scalp, what to avoid, and how to maximize the benefits of your PRF treatment.

8. Follow-Up Sessions

Consistency is Key

PRF hair treatment typically requires multiple sessions for optimal results. We schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and adjust the treatment plan as necessary.

9. Enjoying the Results

See the Difference

As the PRF stimulates your hair follicles, you'll start to observe gradual improvements in your hair's thickness and density. This process isn't instantaneous, but with each passing week, you’ll notice subtle yet significant changes as your hair begins to regain its vitality. The growth factors in PRF enhance the health of your scalp and hair follicles, leading to stronger, thicker hair strands. Over time, these cumulative effects result in visibly fuller, healthier hair. With consistent follow-up sessions and proper care, you can maintain and enhance these results, ultimately enjoying the revitalized hair you’ve always desired.

Fun Fact:

Did You Know?

PRF is 100% natural and uses your body's own healing properties to rejuvenate your hair, making it a safe and effective treatment option. Whilst it is safe, always consult your medical practitioner to understand all risks and side-effects.
