PRP Therapy can be used to treat one of the most frustrating and common concerns for both men and women, hair loss. The treatment involves harvesting the natural growth factors in the blood and reintroducing them to feed the hair follicle. This great, minimally invasive procedure promotes healthy hair growth, to help give you fuller and thicker hair.
As a matter of fact, hair thinning and hair loss affect millions of men and women and is very distressing for most people. The good news is that hair regrowth is possible with a PRP treatment depending on the stage and nature of your condition.
By now, you probably heard about the innovative, non-invasive, non-surgical Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. This is a treatment for men and women experiencing hair loss, receding hairline, and miniaturised hair follicles. Follicular miniaturisation is a phenomenon when the strands of hair become thinner and thinner with the passage of time or other causes. As a result, these hair follicles stop producing thick, healthy hair, or eventually, any hair at all. However, these follicles are still present in the scalp!
PRP hair restoration is a safe solution that involves injecting the scalp with platelet-rich plasma obtained from the patient’s own blood to restore miniaturised follicles and repair damaged tissues.
Our PRP hair treatment is geared towards regenerating existing hair follicles, allowing them to produce thicker, healthier strands.
Thus, the “N-PRP” treatment is one of the most effective, non-invasive, natural, and relatively painless hair growth treatments. Hence, It is probably why it is one of the most sought-after hair loss treatments on the market today
In fact, platelets contain important growth factor and encourage regrowth of blood vessels, cells and tissue.
Henceforth, the ‘N-PRP’ can potentially reverse hair loss by increasing the dermal papilla cells. Thus, it works best for treating thinning hair and slowing or stopping the progression of hair loss and even stimulating dormant hair follicles.
Mesotherapy is a hair regrowth treatment that involves injecting a specialized cocktail of vitamins and minerals directly into the scalp. This treatment aims to nourish and stimulate the hair follicle’s natural regeneration process.
The treatment involves a minimally invasive process in which a special mesotherapy hair complex containing a mixture of plant extracts, vitamins, and bioactive substances is applied through intradermal microinjections.
The combination of PRP and Mesotherapy helps to strengthen and energise the hair follicles. We recommend combining PRP and Mesotherapy for optimal results.
Downtime: No downtime
Treatment Time: 60 mins
How often: 4 – 6 weeks intervals
First, we collect around 8-10 ml of your own blood, place it and spin it in a centrifuge. Subsequently, this separates white blood cells from red blood cells. Then, the special “enriched platelets” solution (N-PRP) is extracted and injected into the scalp. This PRP scalp injection is a regenerative therapy that stimulates healthy cell growth.
At FACES, we use the highest quality tubes enriched with biotin and this increases the possibility of better results.
Moreover, we use the ‘U225 Meso injector’ device that makes the experience painless in comparison to traditional needles.
Please note that 3 to 6 sessions (depending on cases) per year are recommended for obtaining optimal visible results.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous treatment that is popular to help treat hair loss, hair thinning and receding hairline. The procedure is safe and in most cases delivers great results. Here below are some frequently asked questions about PRP.
Generally, the main cause of hair loss in women is the weakening of hair follicles. This said the reasons for this weakening differ from woman to woman but a great majority of women suffer from hair thinning that is hereditary related. More than 40% of women will experience hair loss in their lifetime. Though, there is a wide range of other factors that can cause hair loss in women, including age, stress, nutrition, illnesses, medication, lifestyle factors, hair care routines, and more.
For men, hair loss is also primarily hereditary. It follows a specific, progressive pattern (male pattern hair loss), a receding hairline that is triggered by the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT). For males, hair loss also occurs when hair follicles weaken and stop producing new hair.
For many years, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatments have shown their ability to stimulate and increase growth factors activity to improve wound healing and rejuvenate human tissue. In fact, this treatment is used in many medical specialties such as sports orthopedy, dentistry, facial reconstruction, neurosurgery, dermatology, hair growth, and cosmetic and plastic surgery. PRP is an autologous treatment meaning that it comes, in this case, from your own blood.
Some of these numerous growth factors include the following:
Plasma Gel Bio-Filler is a natural alternative to traditionally synthetic fillers. It is 100% safe since it is created using your own blood’s plasma with no side effects.
As we get older, our face and neck can lose its natural plumpness and volume causing wrinkles, hollowed cheeks and fine lines.
Plasma Bio-Fillers uses your own genetic material, with immediate results usually lasting 8-10 months depending on your age, skin condition and results.
What Can I Expect During the Treatment?
The treatment starts off with extracting the patient’s own blood and separates the plasma which contains the valuable collagen and growth factors from the rest of the blood’s components. This is then heated to stabilise the quality of plasma and then cooled to form a gel-like substance.
