We are committed to providing our patients with safe and efficient hair restoration treatment strategies at Venus Skin Clinic. One of the more common treatments that we offer is PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) hair therapy, a non-surgical treatment where your own blood induces hair growth. But, as with any medical procedure it is important to be aware of possible side effects before committing to treatment.

In this exclusive write-up, we are discussing the side effects of PRP hair treatment with patient reviews and FAQ along with an affordable pricing range from ₹8000 onwards at Venus Skin Clinic.

What is PRP Hair Treatment?

PRP hair treatment is performed by drawing a small quantity of blood from the patient, then separating out the platelet-rich plasma and injecting it into parts where you have thinning or baldness. That plasma is rich with growth factors that could help stimulate the hair follicles and lead to hair regrowth.

As with all treatments, while there are low risks and minimal invasiveness associated with these procedures, it is important to be aware of potential side effects.

Side Effects of PRP for Hair Loss

Side effects are usually mild and go away after a day or so, but it is good to know what they could be.  The following are the most commonly reported side effects of PRP hair treatment:

1. Local reactions at injection sites (e.g., pain or discomfort):

Some degree of discomfort is expected due to needle punctures, but symptoms typically go away after a few hours to days.

2. Scalp Tenderness and Swelling:

Tenderness or swelling in the treatment area is possible, generally resolving within 48 to 72 hours.
Bruising: Minor bruising may occur at the injection site, particularly for those prone to bruising. This may last up to a week.

3. Itching:

Itching around the treatment area as it heals is common and temporary. Symptoms can be managed with medications if needed.
Headaches: Some patients may experience headaches due to scalp tightness following PRP injections, which usually subside within a day or two.

Rare Side Effects

Although rare, patients should be aware of these possible side effects:

1. Infection:

The risk of infection is minimal when hygiene protocols are properly followed.
Blood Clotting Issues: Patients with blood clotting disorders should consult a medical professional before PRP treatment.

2. Nerve Damage:

In very rare cases, nerve damage from the injections may cause numbness or tingling.

3. Allergic Reactions:

Since PRP uses your own blood, allergic reactions are unlikely unless additives are introduced.

When Will PRP Hair Treatment Not Be Beneficial?

Certain individuals may not be ideal candidates for PRP hair treatment, such as:

• Blood Disorder Patients:

Consult with a physician if you have hemophilia or other blood conditions before undergoing PRP.

• Those on Blood Thinners:

Medications that thin the blood may cause bruising and interfere with treatment efficacy.

• Pregnant or Breastfeeding Women:

PRP therapy should be avoided due to a lack of sufficient studies on its effects during pregnancy or lactation.

Guide to Reducing PRP Hair Treatment Side Effects

To make your experience smoother and reduce potential side effects:

• Choose a Reputable Clinic:

Ensure that your clinic has experience with PRP treatments, like Venus Skin Clinic.

• Follow Post-Treatment Instructions:

Strictly adhere to aftercare instructions from your physician to prevent complications.

• Consult Your Doctor:

Inform your provider of any existing ailments or medications before starting PRP.
