What is PRP Treatment for Hair Fall & Skin?
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is a concentrate of platelets obtained from a small sample of your own blood. Platelets contain growth factors that support tissue repair and stimulate hair follicles and collagen production.
For hair, PRP is injected into the scalp where hair is thinning, helping to reduce hair fall and improve the thickness of existing hair. For the skin, it is delivered with micro-needling or fine injections to improve texture, fine lines, acne scars and under-eye dullness.
Hair fall has many causes – including nutrition, thyroid problems, hormones, stress and genetics. Dr. Tarunveer first identifies the cause, with blood tests if needed, so that PRP is used where it can genuinely help.

Benefits of PRP Treatment
Uses your own blood
Nothing foreign is injected, so allergic reactions are very unlikely.
Reduces hair fall
Growth factors help strengthen weak, thinning hair follicles.
Better hair density
Supports thicker, stronger strands over the course of treatment.
Natural skin glow
Improves skin texture, tone and fine lines gradually and naturally.
How the Treatment Works
Hair or skin assessment
Scalp or skin examination, trichoscopy where needed, and any blood tests to find the cause of hair fall.
Blood collection & processing
A small blood sample is taken and spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma.
PRP application
The scalp or skin is numbed, and PRP is injected or applied with micro-needling using sterile, single-use kits.
Repeat & maintenance
Sessions are repeated about every 4 weeks, followed by maintenance as advised.
Results & Number of Sessions
On the scalp, reduced hair fall is usually noticed within the first 1–2 months, and improvement in hair density over 3–6 months. Results are best when PRP is combined with the medical treatment prescribed for your type of hair loss.
On the skin, texture and glow improve progressively over a series of sessions. Maintenance sessions every 4–6 months help sustain results.
Aftercare
- Do not wash your hair for 6–12 hours after scalp PRP
- Avoid hair colouring, chemical treatments and oiling for 2–3 days
- Avoid makeup for 12–24 hours after facial PRP
- Avoid heavy exercise and saunas for 24 hours
- Continue your prescribed hair or skin medicines
Is PRP Treatment for Hair Fall & Skin Safe?
Because PRP is prepared from your own blood, it is generally very well tolerated. Temporary tenderness, mild swelling, redness or small bruises at the injection points are common and settle within a day or two. The procedure is performed with sterile, single-use kits.
Please tell the doctor before treatment if you have:
- Blood disorders or a low platelet count
- Blood-thinning medicines (discuss with the doctor)
- Active scalp or skin infection
- Pregnancy
