Posted by skinhairproblem on October 22nd, 2019

The problem of hair loss is a common issue in both men and women. Men with androgenetic alopecia- hereditary hair thinning, and women with both androgenetic alopecia and traction alopecia- hair thinning due to various hairstyles, color, and other chemical treatments, can regrow their hair before they go completely bald, with the help of their own blood. The hair transplant center in Mumbai conducts the treatment of PRP that is much more convenient than other methods of hair regrowth.

 What is PRP treatment for hair regrowth?

 The blood has small solid components known as platelets and certain among them have growth factor proteins. These platelets are very important as they heal the injured areas of the body. Platelet Rich Plasma(PPR) is a concentrated substance from the blood, has growth factors that send signals to inactive hair follicles to activate the hair production. PRP hair treatment in Mumbai has gained good popularity due to its fruitful results and easefulness as the treatment is non-surgical.

PRP contains these following growth factor proteins that promote hair growth-

1. Platelet-Derived Growth Factor- PDGF forms blood vessels that yield follicular units to sustain their viability. It induces and extends the active growth phase called anagen during the hair regrowth.
2. Epidermal Growth Factor- EGF regulates the active phase of the hair growth cycle.
3. Insulin-like Growth Factor- IGF increases the development of PDGF to maintain the anagen phase.
4. Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor- VEGF meditates on the growth of hair follicles.

 How is PRP treatment performed?

PRP hair treatment in Mumbai is a biochemical therapy where the patient is given a series of injections to put Platelet Rich Plasma along with growth factors into the balding scalp to promote hair growth. The PRP is extracted from the blood by whirling it in a centrifuge. White and red cells are separated from the plasma and required nutrients are added to the PRP. The growth factors, present in PRP, binds specific receptors of the membrane cells to stimulate cell proliferation, division, and growth. The hair transplant center in Mumbai performs the PRP treatment very meticulously. Theentire process of the treatment takes a half-hour or less and only requires general anesthesia.
