Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy For Hair Restoration: Is it Effective?

Suffering from hair loss can seriously impact your confidence. It might hurt your self-esteem and make you feel insecure about your appearance and looks. You may inadvertently start avoiding social gatherings and going out due to your securities.


Hair loss can stem from many issues such as scalp infection, hormonal imbalances, and even genetics. Whatever the reason may be, platelet-rich plasma therapy can help you. What is this treatment? You ask. Let us break it down for you.

What is Platelet-Rich Plasma?

Platelet-rich plasma or PRP therapy is a treatment that involves injecting plasma into your scalp to promote hair growth and help restore your hair's condition.



Plasma is present in your blood and provides nutrients and proteins to your body. The PRP injections only provide this plasma to your blood to give your body some extra help. These injections are used for more than hair restoration; they help treat injuries and osteoarthritis.

How Does it Work?

As mentioned above, PRP therapy involves injections, so numbing the area or giving you local anesthesia will reduce any pain or discomfort. A medical professional then draws a sample of your blood to place in a centrifuge, a machine that spins your blood's vial and separates the plasma. The separated plasma is then injected into specific areas on your scalp.

Is it Even Effective?

A study that focused on PRP therapy's efficacy against some other hair loss treatments concluded that PRP injections and therapy are more effective. The therapy outperformed other treatments and is widely used to cure hair loss in men and women. However, most of its efficiency lies in the level of platelet found in your plasma. The more plasma you have, the more successful the treatment will be.


Lastly, it would be best if you got this treatment done by a professional. Only a medical professional or esthetician can provide proper consultation and evaluation of your condition and recommend PRP therapy.


You might think it's just a bunch of injections and your blood, but it must be injected into specific points for the procedure to be effective in treating your condition. A shoddy treatment will lead to infections and tissue damage.

Marriage may not be the end of a fun life, but it is the end of single life. Bachelor and bachelorette parties celebrate a person’s last night as a married man or woman. These parties are also known as the hen, stag-dos in the UK, and Jack and Jill parties in Australia. Thomas Thurnell-Read , a sociologist at Loughborough University, describes these pre-wedding festivities as a rite of passage . When a young person switches from one phase of life to another, it’s an opportunity to celebrate with friends and family. Holding gendered-rituals like bachelorette parties to mark the end of being single has been a tradition since the 17th century . Modern bachelor and bachelorette parties in the 21st century are high-influenced by pop culture; for example, movies like the “The Hangover.” People spend a ton of money on their party arrangements and travel. According to a wedding site, The Knot, the average bachelorette party costs $537 per attendee in 2018. The activities involved in these parties include travel, accommodation, gifts, and food. From skydiving to destination weekends, and from wine tasting to a low-key spa evening , girls now have plenty of options to choose from. But if you’re on a budget and are looking for the perfect girls’ night, here are some creative ideas to get you started.

A body scrub is one of the most popular body care treatments. It is basically a facial for the entire body that hydrates and exfoliates the skin leaving it soft and smooth. The scrub is typically done with an abrasive material such as sugar or sea salt that is mixed with aromatic massage oils. After the scrub, the body is treated with a high-quality cream or lotion to soothe and hydrate the skin. A professional body scrub can only be performed by skilled aestheticians who are licenced and certified to work on the skin and have in-depth knowledge of how different skin types react to different products.  Here are some reasons why body scrubs should be a regular part of your beauty routine:

You don’t have genes of a Greek goddess or a closet full of expensive skincare products to look young and beautiful. If you want skin like J-Lo, Olivia Wilde, Miranda Kerr or any of the celebrities who look airbrushed in reality, you need to have a skin routine. Nothing gives your skin that youthful glow and healthy plumpness than a good night’s sleep. But there’s more to skincare than turning off the lights at 10 every night. Winters may have quit the scene, but the effects of harsh cold and dry winds are still pretty much there on your skin. You don’t want your skin to look scaly, dry, and cracked now, do you? That’s why you need to restore luster to your skin by getting a full body scrub.
