PRP treatment for hair loss

A medical approach to naturally stimulate hair regrowth

Institut MC offers PRP (platelet-rich plasma) treatment for individuals experiencing hair loss. This innovative medical treatment, performed by Dr. Mujica, uses your body’s natural resources to promote hair growth safely—without surgery.

How does PRP for hair loss work?

PRP is a platelet concentrate derived from your own blood. After a quick blood draw, your blood is processed in a centrifuge to extract the platelet-rich plasma. This concentrate, known for being rich in growth factors, is then injected into the scalp to stimulate hair follicles and improve hair density.

Frequently asked questions about PRP for hair loss

Is the treatment painful?
Most patients experience mild discomfort during the injections, but the procedure is generally well tolerated. For your comfort, a numbing cream can be applied before the treatment.

How many sessions are needed?
Most treatment plans include 3 to 4 sessions a few weeks apart, followed by maintenance sessions every 4 to 6 months, depending on how your body responds.

How long does it take to see results?
You can usually expect to start seeing results after 2 to 3 months. The results improve with each treatment and may vary according to the initial condition of your scalp.

Does PRP work for all types of hair loss?
PRP is particularly effective for recent or moderate hair loss, such as pattern hair loss. It is not typically recommended for advanced hair loss or scarring alopecia.

Are there side effects?
Side effects are minimal and temporary. You may experience mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity of the scalp. Side effects typically subside within 24 to 48 hours.

Is the treatment safe?
Yes, because PRP comes from your own blood, there is no risk of an allergic reaction. The treatment is provided in a medical setting, under the supervision of Dr. Mujica.
