PRP uses your own blood to help weak hair follicles grow thicker hair. A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm and spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma. This plasma is then injected into the thinning areas of your scalp.
Platelets carry natural growth factors, including PDGF (platelet-derived growth factor), VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) and TGF-beta. These improve blood supply to the follicle and help keep hair in its growth (anagen) phase for longer. Because PRP comes from your own blood, the risk of allergy is very low.
PRP works on follicles that are still alive. It strengthens thinning hair and slows hair fall; it cannot grow hair on areas that are fully bald.
| Step | What Happens |
|---|---|
| 1. Consultation and Scalp Mapping | A detailed evaluation of your hair loss pattern, scalp condition, and medical history. Trichoscopy assesses follicle density and stage of hair loss. |
| 2. Blood Draw | A small amount of blood (15-50 ml) is collected from your arm — similar to a routine blood test. Takes only a few minutes. |
| 3. Centrifugation and PRP Separation | The blood is processed in a medical-grade centrifuge, producing a concentrated platelet-rich plasma with significantly higher growth factor content than normal blood. |
| 4. Scalp Preparation and PRP Injection | A topical numbing agent is applied. PRP is then injected into targeted areas using fine needles, focused on zones of active thinning. |
| 5. Post-Procedure Care | A gentle scalp massage aids absorption. Personalised aftercare instructions are provided in writing. You can resume your regular routine immediately after the session with no downtime. |
Session duration: 30-45 minutes | Zero downtime | Minimal discomfort
PRP works best for patients who start treatment early — within the first year of noticeable thinning — rather than after years of progressive hair loss.
The earlier you start, the better your results. PRP works best on follicles that are still active — so the sooner you begin, the more follicles can respond.
Hair thinning in women often has a cause that must be treated alongside PRP. Common causes are PCOS, thyroid problems, low iron or vitamin D, and hair loss after pregnancy. Dr. Asma checks for these first, so PRP is part of a complete plan — not a stand-alone guess.
As a woman dermatologist, she is easy to talk to about hormonal and post-pregnancy hair loss.
PRP uses your blood’s platelets alongside red and white blood cells. It is a strong starting point for most patients with early-to-moderate hair loss.
GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) removes the red and white blood cells, delivering only the concentrated growth factors — often producing faster results in moderate-to-severe cases, or where PRP alone has given limited response.
| Feature | PRP | GFC |
|---|---|---|
| Best For | Mild-to-moderate hair loss | Moderate-to-severe hair loss |
| Contains | Platelets + Red/White Blood Cells | Only Concentrated Growth Factors |
| Ideal For | First-line treatment | When PRP response was insufficient |
| Sessions Needed | 3-6 sessions | 3-4 sessions |
The total cost of PRP Hair Treatment depends on how many sessions you need, the size of the area being treated, and the specific treatment plan recommended for you. At The Velvet Skin Centre, we are committed to upfront pricing with absolutely no hidden fees.
| Service | Price |
|---|---|
| PRP Hair Treatment (per session) | Start from ₹3,500 |
| 3-Session Package | Discounted rate available |
| 6-Session Package | Discounted rate available |
Factors That Influence Cost:
Why Choose a Package? Patients who opt for 3 or 6-session packages save significantly compared to single sessions. Packages also ensure consistent treatment intervals, which is key for best results.
*Final pricing is determined after your consultation with Dr. Asma, based on your specific hair loss pattern and treatment goals.
Most patients at The Velvet Skin Centre follow a course of 3-6 sessions spaced 3-4 weeks apart, followed by maintenance sessions every 4-6 months.
| Timeline | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| After Session 1-2 | Reduced hair fall. Scalp feels healthier. |
| After Session 3-4 | Visible improvement in hair density begins. |
| After Session 5-6 | Hair density and thickness improvements typically peak. |
| By Month 4-6 | Most patients see meaningful change in density and thickness. |
| Maintenance | Every 4-6 months to sustain results. |
If there is no visible change after 4-5 sessions, Dr. Asma will review the plan with you rather than continue the same treatment.
| Do | Don’t |
|---|---|
| Use a mild, sulphate-free shampoo to wash your hair on the morning of your visit | Consume alcohol for 48 hours before your session |
| Have a light meal and stay hydrated before arriving | Avoid getting your scalp wet or washing your hair for at least 6-8 hours post-treatment |
| Inform Dr. Asma of any blood thinners or medications you take | Exercise vigorously, use saunas, or steam rooms for 24 hours |
| — | Colour or chemically treat hair for 72 hours |
A complete written aftercare guide will be given to you after every session.
Since PRP is derived from your own blood, the chances of an allergic response are extremely low.

| Your Situation | Recommended Treatment |
|---|---|
| Hair loss is moderate to severe? | GFC Treatment — a more potent option when PRP alone isn’t enough. |
| Hair fall hasn’t improved with basic care? | Hair Fall Treatment — starts with a detailed scalp analysis to find the real cause. |
| Hair loss has progressed to bald patches? | Hair Transplant — when follicles are no longer active, this may be the next step. |
I'm so excited to share my review about the hair growth centre. I visited to find a solution for hair fall and was recommended GFC treatment. I've completed four sessions so far, and the results have been good. My hair fall has significantly reduced, and I can already see new hair growth. I'm impressed with the centre's ambience. Thanks to Dr. Asma and Eram for guiding and helping me with my hair growth. Highly recommend!

PRP hair treatment at The Velvet Skin Centre typically costs between ₹3,000 and ₹12,000 per session, depending on the treatment area and number of sessions needed. Call or WhatsApp 8002558860 for exact pricing at your consultation.
No — PRP stimulates existing follicles rather than offering a one-time permanent fix, so most patients need maintenance sessions every 4–6 months to sustain results.
A 3-session package generally costs less per session than booking individually, within the ₹3,000–₹12,000 per-session range — exact package pricing is confirmed at consultation. Call 8002558860 for current rates.
No — no treatment works for everyone. Research shows meaningful improvement in around 70–80% of patients with early-to-moderate hair loss, with results depending on how early treatment starts.
PRP stimulates hair follicles that are still active to grow thicker and denser; a hair transplant surgically relocates follicles from one part of the scalp to another. PRP is a non-surgical option for early-to-moderate thinning, while a transplant is generally considered when a larger area has gone bald and needs new follicles altogether, not just stronger ones.
Yes — PRP is often used alongside topical treatments like minoxidil rather than as a replacement for them, since they work through different mechanisms.
PRP is generally not recommended for anyone under 18, and most clinics recommend it primarily for adults experiencing early signs of hair thinning rather than younger patients.
A basic blood test is often recommended beforehand to rule out conditions like anaemia or clotting disorders that could affect results or safety.
If there’s no visible improvement in shedding or density after 4–5 sessions, that’s generally a sign PRP alone may not be the right approach, and it’s worth discussing alternatives like GFC or a transplant evaluation with your dermatologist rather than continuing the same protocol indefinitely.
No significant long-term risks are currently associated with repeated PRP sessions, since the treatment uses your own blood rather than a foreign substance — the main considerations are the same short-term ones (mild soreness, temporary redness) each time, not cumulative risk.
Hair fall doesn’t wait. Neither should you. Starting PRP treatment sooner rather than later leads to significantly better outcomes.
