Human blood is made of blood cells and plasma. Blood cells, which include red blood cells and white blood cells, are suspended in plasma. A component of the plasma is miniscule specialized cells called platelets.
Platelets are responsible for clot formation and are considered a reservoir for growth-promoting factors. Additionally, platelets stimulate tissue recovery and are responsible for the enhancement of hair follicle functions.
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is processed blood with an increased concentration of platelets, achieved by removing red and white blood cells. PRP is harvested from the patient’s blood itself and injected into the scalp to promote new growth by restoring blood flow to the hair follicles.
