What is PRP for hair loss?
PRP for hair loss is a treatment that uses platelet-rich plasma, a part of your own blood, applied to the scalp. It is designed to support areas of thinning hair.
A small blood sample is drawn, prepared in a device that separates out the plasma, then placed in the scalp during the same visit. At MAMBA Men's Clinics, PRP hair restoration is offered through Grow Hair MD at participating clinics.
