PRP or hair transplantation? Which treatment is right for you?

In this guide we go through:
- ✅ What PRP and hair transplantation are
- ✅ Differences between the treatments
- ✅ Which method gives the best results depending on your hair loss
Read on to find out which treatment is right for you!
What is PRP and how does it work?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a natural, non-surgical treatment that stimulates hair growth by using growth factors from your own blood. Here's how it works:
- Blood test: A small amount of blood is taken from your arm.
- Centrifugation: The blood is spun in a centrifuge to separate the nutrient-rich plasma.
- Scalp injections: PRP is injected into areas of thinning hair to stimulate weak hair follicles and improve hair quality.
Benefits of PRP for hair loss
- ✔ Natural treatment - using the body's own growth factors
- ✔ Stimulates hair follicles and slows down hair loss
- ✔ Gives thicker and stronger hair
- ✔ Fast treatment without surgery or recovery time
- ✔ Perfect in combination with a hair transplant for better results
What is a hair transplant and how does it work?
A hair transplant is a surgical procedure in which hair follicles are moved from an area of dense hair growth (usually the back of the head) to areas of thinning hair.
The most common technique today is FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction), where individual hair follicles are removed and placed on the desired area.
Benefits of a hair transplant
- ✔ Permanent solution for hair loss
- ✔ Fills in bare areas where PRP is not enough
- ✔ Natural result with modern FUE technology
Which treatment should you choose?
It depends on your type of hair loss and your goals. Here is a simple guide:
PRP is right for you if:
- ✅ You have incipient hair loss and want to slow it down in time.
- ✅ You want to improve the quality of your existing hair.
- ✅ You are seeking a natural and non-surgical treatment.
Hair transplantation is right for you if:
- 🔹 You have large bald areas where the hair follicles are no longer active.
- 🔹 You want a permanent solution for hair loss.
- 🔹 You are ready for a surgical treatment with recovery time.
💡 The combination of PRP and hair transplantation often gives the best results! PRP helps both before and after a hair transplant to speed up healing and strengthen the transplanted hair follicles.
