As you grow in age, problems such as hair fall start arising. Well, not to forget the fact that the leading cause of hair fall in youngsters is mainly lack of proper food consumption. Although there are several factors responsible for the hair fall, one needn’t worry as there are treatments and therapies available for reversing hair fall. PRP treatment, also known as platelet-rich plasma treatment, is a three-step medical treatment which involves drawing a person’s blood.

However, before we learn the therapy process in detail, we must learn about the reasons for hair fall. We begin with stating that a reason for hair fall could even be hereditary. Yes, you heard it right. An individual may have a family history of baldness, and hence one could not be able to blame the other factors for chronic hair fall. Sometimes, a major illness, or being diagnosed with a chronic disease, too, could result in hair fall.

We are all aware of the fact that treating cancer requires a heavy dose of medicines, which have their good effects as well as side effects. One of the side effects is hair loss. Most cancer patients lose their hair during treatment, due to these medications. But people can re-grow their hair in a natural way, or through undergoing treatments.

Hair loss can be treated by medications, too. Undergoing medication for hair loss, one could be asked to apply the topical creams that must be applied over your head to make it directly affect the scalp. Such creams contain minoxidil. But the medication too has its own side effects and one must take care of analyzing it before going ahead any further with the treatment.

One of the safest ways of reversing your hair with minimal side effects is PRP treatment. PRP treatment for hair is an effective treatment preferred by individuals for hair loss treatment. Since the therapy is carried out in three steps, the initial step requires the blood to be drawn from one’s arm and later injected into a centrifuge. Well, what is a centrifuge? A centrifuge is a machine that is responsible for separating fluids as per their sensitivities by spinning rapidly.

The next step involves the blood being stored in the machine for almost about 10 minutes. After spinning rapidly, the machine will divide the blood into three layers:

• Platelet-poor plasma
• Platelet-rich plasma
• Red blood cells.

PRP is one of the safest ways of reversing hair fall, because your blood is injected into your scalp, and hence it minimizes the risk of attracting a communicable disease. But before proceeding ahead to undergoing this treatment, one must take care of getting it recommended by the experts who have been involved in such surgeries or therapies for years. People on blood thinners, or heavy smokers are recommended to not undergo the treatment by the doctors, or as prescribed by the surgeons. Apart from the above conditions, if you have a long-term chronic disease such as cancer, liver disease, chronic skin disease, and sepsis, you are not allowed to undergo this treatment.

Cost involved:

The PRP treatment cost could vary from one surgeon to another & considering the above factors, it can be seen that treating hair fall is not a cake walk.

Therefore, at Arra Aesthetics we have a team of experts who are responsible for safely carrying out the treatments by taking every possible step carefully to avoid the side effects.
