PRP scalp/hair

Although hair thinning over the years is usually harmless from a medical point of view, it can still be very distressing for those affected. In our society, a full head of hair is associated with health, youthfulness, and vitality. It is therefore understandable that many people affected by hair loss want an effective treatment.

At forMed Meggen Aesthetics, we offer PRP treatment for the scalp and hair as a gentle yet effective form of therapy for hair loss. PRP treatment involves supplying the hair with the body’s own active substances, which we extract from the patient’s own blood. The platelets, growth factors, and stem cells contained in the blood revitalize the hair roots and stimulate hair growth. The hair appears stronger and healthier overall.

What is PRP hair treatment?
PRP treatment for the scalp/hair is an autologous blood therapy in which we use platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to specifically stimulate hair growth. The PRP method has long been used in aesthetic medicine, particularly for skin rejuvenation, but has also proven itself in other medical fields. For example, PRP therapy can contribute to the regeneration of muscles and joints or support wound healing.
By treating the hair with PRP, we can supply it with valuable endogenous active ingredients and thus revitalize it. At forMed Aesthetics, we use PRP treatment for hereditary hair loss, circular hair loss, and damaged and stressed hair, among other things. The treatment can also counteract a nutrient deficiency in the hair. In addition, PRP therapy is often performed in conjunction with a hair transplant.

How does PRP hair treatment work?
There are various causes for thinning hair or hair loss. In addition to genetic, hormonal, and disease-related factors, hair loss can also be caused or accelerated by a nutrient deficiency. This is where PRP hair treatment comes in. The supply of nutrients to the hair is specifically stimulated and hair regeneration is improved by applying growth-promoting substances to the scalp.
In this procedure, we use platelet-rich plasma, or PRP for short, to revitalize your hair with the body’s own active ingredients. The plasma is obtained from your own blood by centrifugation and then injected into the scalp under sterile conditions.
What makes PRP so valuable for hair is its high concentration of growth factors and cell-regenerating proteins. These promote the regeneration of hair follicles, improve the supply of nutrients, stimulate microcirculation, and ultimately lead to improved hair growth.

How much does PRP treatment for the scalp/hair cost?
We offer PRP treatment starting at CHF 250.00 per treatment. It should be noted that the number of sessions required may vary depending on individual findings. Prior to treatment, we will of course draw up a personal treatment plan and a cost estimate for you.

How does PRP treatment of the scalp/hair work?
If you are considering PRP treatment for your hair, we would be happy to take the time for a detailed consultation. We will conduct a brief preliminary examination to assess the condition of your hair. You will then receive a realistic assessment of whether autologous blood therapy for hair is likely to be successful in your case.
PRP treatment usually involves several sessions, which take place at intervals of several weeks. First, a small amount of your own blood is taken, from which we then extract the precious blood plasma using centrifugation. In the next step, the plasma concentrate is injected into the entire scalp using microinjections via the Vital Injector 2. The injection sites usually close up again on their own after a short time and are no longer visible afterwards.
PRP therapy for hair usually involves around 3-5 sessions. Depending on the type and extent of hair loss, the scope of treatment can vary considerably in individual cases.
After PRP treatment, you can return to your everyday life without restriction. Apart from slight superficial skin irritation, no side effects are to be expected, as we do not use any foreign materials in PRP for hair.

What should you keep in mind after PRP treatment for the scalp/hair?
After PRP treatment, there is hardly anything you need to do. There is no downtime. Immediately after treatment, there may be temporary slight redness and swelling. Hair can be washed as usual on the second day after PRP treatment.

When will the results of PRP treatment for the scalp/hair be visible?
After PRP treatment, a little patience is required until the injected substances take full effect. Initial results usually appear after a few weeks to months. After treatment with PRP, the hair is usually significantly more vibrant, and hair loss is often slowed down or even stops completely.
