In the normal process of aging the skin becomes thin and experiences a loss of collagen and blow flow. PRP can help stimulate the collagen rebuilding process and improve skin quality and blood flow to the scalp. Increasing the blood flow to the scalp can help to reduce the amount of hair lost daily and assist the body in producing strengthened hair growth.
PRP or ‘Platelet Rich Plasma’ is a process whereby blood is taken from the patient and processed through a centrifuge to extract the cells in the plasma that are high in nutrients and growth factors. This platelet rich plasma is then injected back into the treatment area both superficially and at a deeper dermal level for maximum effectiveness.

WHO WILL BE INJECTING?
Dr Ali Hussain is a skilled injector with over 15 years experience and you can be assured that at AH Cosmetic Clinic you will be injected by the doctor himself.
HOW LONG UNTIL I SEE A RESULT?
For best results it is recommended that you undergo three treatments of PRP each three weeks after the last. After your series of treatments have been completed, it takes approximately 3 months for you to see the result, however you can see a result much sooner in some circumstances. It can be helpful to continue to have follow up treatments every 3 months to maintain optimal results.
HOW LONG WILL THE TREATMENT TAKE & WHAT IS THE DOWNTIME?
You should reserve approximately 45 minutes for this procedure as your blood will need to be prepared. You will require a consultation with Dr Ali Hussain to assess your suitability before injecting, the value of the consultation will be deducted from your final total on the day. The actual injecting usually takes less than 10 minutes.
You may experience some redness and swelling at the injection site post procedure. You are able to return to your normal activities immediately however you will not be able to wear make-up for the remainder of the day. You must also avoid hot showers and excessive sun for 24 hours after your treatment.
WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS?
As with any injectable treatment there is a small risk of short term redness, tenderness or bruising. As this treatment is performed using your own natural body products adverse side effects have not been recorded.
