PRP is made from the patient's own blood and injected into selected scalp areas as a non-surgical option for some forms of hair thinning, mainly where follicles are still present. It is not a universal fix, so NeoSculpt6 first assesses the diagnosis, scalp condition and stage of thinning.
PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. A small blood sample is spun in a centrifuge to separate plasma with a higher platelet concentration, and that plasma is injected into chosen scalp areas. Platelets carry signalling proteins involved in tissue repair. In hair care, PRP is used to support existing follicles in selected patients. Evidence is strongest as supportive treatment for some people with androgenetic alopecia, though preparation methods and response vary. PRP does not transplant follicles and cannot be expected to restore advanced bald areas where follicles are gone.
Plan Your PRP Hair Treatment Around the Right Assessment
The consultation reviews the pattern, duration and progression of hair loss, medical history, medicines, scalp condition and past treatments. The doctor explains whether PRP is a reasonable standalone support, part of a wider plan, or unlikely to help.
Patients are told the proposed number and spacing of sessions, how response will be measured, and whether ongoing medication or another treatment is needed for the underlying diagnosis.
Watch the Explanation
PRP is considered only after pattern hair loss is distinguished from sudden shedding, alopecia areata, scarring disease, scalp inflammation and other causes.
Blood is collected and centrifuged to concentrate platelets in plasma. Being autologous lowers allergy concerns, but the procedure is not risk-free.
PRP is directed at thinning areas where follicles remain. It does not recreate follicles in long-standing bald skin.
Standardised photos help show whether density or hair thickness changes over time.
Schedules vary. The clinic reviews response before extending or repeating a course.
Medication, GFC, LLLT or transplantation may be discussed separately when the diagnosis supports them. More treatments do not automatically give better results.
OUR PROCESS
The diagnosis, pattern and treatment goals are reviewed.
Standardised photographs and relevant scalp findings are recorded.
A small blood sample is taken using sterile technique.
The sample is processed under the clinic's PRP protocol to produce injectable plasma.
PRP is injected into selected thinning areas.
Patients get scalp care instructions and guidance on when to report unexpected symptoms.
Response is compared with baseline before further sessions or maintenance are advised.
PRP may be considered when miniaturised follicles remain and the diagnosis supports it.
Diagnosis comes first. PRP may be an option when the pattern is suitable.
PRP may suit patients who are not transplant candidates or do not currently need surgery.
Some clinicians use PRP around hair transplantation; it should have a defined role, not be required for every surgical patient.
A course only makes sense when results are reviewed regularly and maintenance is decided based on response.
Active scalp infection, certain blood or platelet disorders, anticoagulant use or other medical factors may affect suitability and need clinical review.

Dr Sandeep Mahapatra founded NeoSculpt6 and works as a Senior Consultant Dermatologist, with over 20 years of clinical experience in hair restoration and hair transplantation.
His approach focuses on diagnosis, donor conservation, natural hairline design, personalised planning and long-term hair-restoration strategy.
What Determines PRP Hair Treatment Cost? Cost depends on the number of sessions recommended, hair-loss severity, scalp condition, treatment goals and whether combination therapy is needed.
Session frequency depends on the stage of hair loss, scalp condition and response to treatment.
Mild thinning, active shedding and maintenance goals are planned differently.
Some patients need periodic maintenance sessions after the initial plan.
PRP may be combined with medical or regenerative treatments when the assessment supports it.

Have a Question?
PRP uses the patient's own blood, processed to concentrate platelets in plasma, and injects it into the scalp as part of selected hair-loss plans.
It may be considered for early thinning, pattern hair loss or support during transplant planning. It is less suitable where follicles are absent or untreated medical causes drive hair loss.
The doctor recommends a course based on diagnosis, severity, response and whether PRP is used alone or with other treatments.
No procedure is risk-free. Because PRP is autologous, allergy risk is limited, but pain, bruising, infection and temporary tenderness can occur.
Results are gradual and vary. Progress is judged by shedding control, hair quality, density and follow-up review, not instant growth.
No. PRP cannot create new follicles where they are absent. It suits supporting existing follicles in selected patients.
Yes, when clinically appropriate, especially to support native hair or scalp recovery. The plan is based on diagnosis, not a standard package.
PRP Should Be Part of a Diagnosis, Not a Package
NeoSculpt6 assesses your pattern of hair loss, records a baseline and explains what PRP can and cannot reasonably achieve before recommending a course.
