There was once a time when PRP hair treatment in Mumbai was something of an enigma, that nobody had quite heard of. We know clients who searched online where they could travel abroad to get PRP hair treatments for luscious locks of hair. Thankfully, those days are gone and now getting a PRP hair treatment is as easy as booking an appointment at the nearest salon.
However, it is important to make sure that you know what PRP is, how an advanced PRP hair treatment is better than regular ones, and why you should be wary of booking appointments just about anywhere else.
In this article, we take a look at what advanced PRP hair treatment is, and what it can do for your hair. WhatsApp us to know more about the cost
What is advanced PRP hair treatment?
In short, PRP is quite effective at encouraging hair growth and arresting hair loss by reducing inflammation and rejuvenating hair follicles.
In an advanced PRP hair treatment, your platelet-rich blood plasma is injected using microneedles to specifically target problem areas. These treatments are supervised by specialists who are trained to do so.
In addition, some advanced PRP hair treatments may also involve growth factor additives. The results of PRP hair treatment include rejuvenation of your scalp and improved hair quality.
Can advanced PRP hair treatment be used alongside other treatments?
A lot of people ask if they can use advanced PRP hair treatment as an adjunct therapy. The answer is a resounding “Yes”. PRP works very well when combined with various other evidence-backed treatments for hair loss.
Here are three case scenarios:
1. Minoxidil and advanced PRP hair treatment
Many of our clients use minoxidil to arrest hair loss and induce new hair growth. Minoxidil is an FDA-approved treatment for hair loss and androgenetic alopecia.
When you combine minoxidil with regular sessions of advanced PRP hair treatments, you can rest assured that while minoxidil does its job every day, you are also doing something more to keep your hair follicles rejuvenated and replenished.
It should be noted that although minoxidil is an FDA-approved treatment for hair loss, your newly hair grown will fall out once you stop using minoxidil. In addition, PRP hair treatment side effects are minimal compared to regular use of minoxidil.
2. Finasteride and advanced PRP hair treatment
Finasteride is an FDA-approved medicine for addressing male pattern baldness. It reduces the damage that DHT does to your hair follicles and encourages the regrowth of hair.
It is a highly effective treatment that ensures a reduction in hair loss and induces new hair growth. However, any hair that is grown often falls out once you stop taking the medicines.
In addition, some people experience PRP hair treatment side effects as well. When you combine finasteride with regular advanced PRP hair treatments, you can make sure that you are bolstering your hair follicles from within.
Even when you do not take your medicines regularly, PRP hair treatments will have your hair’s back covered.
3. Hair transplantation and advanced PRP hair treatment
Many men often require hair transplantation to cover up bald spots. When androgenetic alopecia is severe, minoxidil and finasteride may just not be enough.
In such cases, we often use the FUE method to transplant hair safely, so that your hair grows back in areas where hair follicles were transplanted.
Although hair transplantation works wonderfully, it cannot be guaranteed that you will not lose hair again.
To ensure that your transplanted hair continues to remain lush, it is important to combine the treatment with the results of PRP hair treatment.
This makes sure that your newly grown hair strands remain strong and firmly adhered to your scalp.
Can you use advanced PRP treatment as the sole remedy?
The answer to this question is truly subjective. It depends on what kind of hair loss you are experiencing, and at what stage of hair loss you are.
If your hair loss is not visibly conspicuous and you are in the initial stages of losing your hair, just a few sessions of advanced PRP hair treatment should be enough.
You can combine advanced PRP treatment with a good scalp care regimen like using gentle shampoos, nourishing serums, and dandruff reduction.
The decision to use only advanced PRP hair treatment or combine it with another treatment depends on the extent of your hair loss, and the opinion of your hair care expert.
It should be noted that hair loss due to chemotherapy, alopecia areata, and certain other health conditions may not benefit from advanced PRP treatments.
To get a more tailor-made answer, it is important to get your scalp evaluated by one of our professionals.
Why you should choose your advanced PRP care provider carefully?
Advanced platelet-rich plasma treatment requires a very careful and stringent approach due to the process involved. As blood needs to be drawn and run through high-speed centrifuges to spectate platelet-rich plasma, hygiene standards have to be met.
In addition, the treatment involves injecting plasma multiple times into the scalp, after numbing the area.
This means the skincare expert should have expert training and knowledge alongside the experience. It is also important for the clinic to have modern types of equipment that can be easily sterilized.
Outdated equipment can be difficult to maintain, and may not provide accurate results, especially when it comes to separating platelet-poor plasma from platelet-rich plasma.
Advanced equipment ensures that only the most effective plasma is derived to inject into your scalp so that your hair grows back luxuriantly.
PRP hair treatment cost can vary too. At RSB Wellness, we try to keep the costs as minimal as possible without compromising on professional care.
Last but not the least, the clinic should offer genuine and supportive after-treatment care and counseling, so that the treatment sessions go the way they are expected.
Although PRP treatments are simple, quick, and effective, it is important to choose a clinic that meets the highest standards and expertise.

Does PRP for hair hurt?
PRP is a hair loss treatment option that is gaining popularity. In order to promote hair growth, plasma from your blood is injected into your scalp. There is minimal discomfort associated with the operation, and there is no downtime.
What should avoid post PRP Treatment?
For three days following your injection, avoid using heat or ice at the injection site. For six hours, avoid touching the injection site with lotions, oils, or cosmetics. For three days after, refrain from exerting yourself physically. After the procedure, refrain from smoking and drinking for at least three days.
Is PRP a permanent solution?
The effects of PRP therapy are not permanent; patients may need further injections at their doctor’s advice after a few weeks for joint injections and six months for scalp injections.
