THE GLAM – Why Melissa Khan loves it
Hair loss and thinning hair are common problems across all genders. About 50 million men and 30 million women have lost at least some hair. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a treatment that helps you to grow – and keep – your hair.

THE SCIENCE – Why Dr. Khan recommends It
PRP is a substance drawn from your blood and injected into your scalp that can purportedly help heal bodily tissues, including follicles from which your hairs grow. Platelets promote cell growth and regeneration. As the term “platelet-rich plasma” suggests, platelets are generally about five times more concentrated in PRP than in regular blood. This concentration of platelets is useful, because platelets secrete growth factors than are thought to assist in wound healing and tissue regrowth.
