PRP treatment prepared from your own blood.
Noticing a thinning crown or a receding hairline? Growth Factors uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) prepared from your own blood and injected into selected scalp areas, with the aim of supporting hair growth in suitable patients.

Growth Factors at a Glance
Prepared From Your Own Blood
The PRP used in your treatment is prepared from a sample of your blood. It contains concentrated platelets and their naturally occurring growth factors.
Treatment Where Hair Is Thinning
An expert injects the prepared PRP into selected areas of the scalp. It is an option for thinning hair, subject to clinical assessment before treatment.
Around 45 Minutes
Appointments at selected clinics include a complimentary Cold Beam Laser session after the injections. Check availability and the recommended course at your consultation.
What Is Growth Factors PRP Treatment?
PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. Plasma is the liquid part of blood, and platelets contain proteins called growth factors. In this treatment, your blood sample is processed to prepare a platelet-rich portion for injection into the scalp.
PRP is used as a treatment option for some people with hair thinning, including male pattern hair loss.
The starting point is understanding your hair loss. Our team can help you explore the options, with medical assessment required before PRP treatment.
Could Growth Factors Suit Your Hair Loss?
If your hair is thinning at the crown or becoming less dense, Growth Factors may be an option to discuss. It is generally considered for thinning areas where hair remains, rather than as a way to restore a completely bald area.
Your expert will consider the cause of your hair loss, scalp condition, medical history and current treatments. Sudden shedding, patchy loss or an irritated scalp may need a different assessment or approach.
You don’t need to choose a treatment before speaking with us. Start with a Hair Check to compare your options and find out what assessment is needed.

What Does a Growth Factors Appointment Involve?
Growth Factors appointments take around 45 minutes and are available at selected Advanced Hair clinics. The number and spacing of sessions are discussed during consultation.
Step 1: A Blood Sample
A sample is taken from your arm and collected in a preparation tube, in a process similar to a blood test.
Step 2: PRP Preparation
The sample is spun in a centrifuge to separate its components and prepare the platelet-rich plasma.
Step 3: Scalp Injections
A nurse injects the prepared PRP into selected areas of your scalp. Your treating clinician can explain comfort measures, risks and aftercare before you proceed.
Step 4: Included Laser Session
The Growth Factors appointment includes a complimentary Cold Beam Laser session after the injections. Ask how this fits into your individual treatment plan.

Compare Your Hair Restoration Options
Growth Factors is one option within our range. Your assessment can help you compare different approaches and discuss whether a combined plan is appropriate.
Advanced Laser Therapy
Explore the Advanced Laser Therapy program as a separate treatment option. The laser session included with a Growth Factors appointment is not the same as a complete laser therapy program.
Strand-By-Strand® Hair Transplant
Explore Strand-By-Strand® Hair Transplant if you are considering surgical restoration. A transplant moves donor follicles; PRP involves scalp injections. Medical assessment is needed to discuss their suitability and any proposed combination.
Epidermal Infusion
Prefer to explore hair replacement without scalp injections or transplantation? Epidermal Infusion offers a different approach to restoring the appearance of hair. Ask about the look, care and maintenance involved.

Growth Factors and PRP Hair Treatment FAQs
Is Growth Factors the same as PRP hair treatment?
Growth Factors is our PRP hair treatment program. A sample of your blood is processed to prepare platelet-rich plasma, which is then injected into selected areas of your scalp.
Can PRP help men with thinning hair?
PRP may help some men with hair thinning, including male pattern hair loss, but it is not suitable for every person or every cause of hair loss. It does not create new follicles or guarantee regrowth. An assessment helps establish whether it is worth considering for you.
How many Growth Factors sessions will I need?
The recommended number and spacing of sessions depend on your assessment. Several appointments and later maintenance may be recommended. Before starting, ask for the appointment plan, review schedule and total expected cost.
Does PRP treatment hurt, and are there risks?
Blood collection and scalp injections can cause discomfort. Injection-site pain and infection are possible, even though the PRP comes from your own blood. Discuss comfort measures, relevant risks and aftercare with your treating expert.
When might I notice a change?
Any improvement takes time and varies between people. Your expert can explain when your response will be reviewed. Case photographs show individual experiences, not a timeline or outcome promised to everyone.
Is laser therapy included with Growth Factors?
A complimentary Cold Beam Laser session follows the Growth Factors injections. This appointment inclusion is separate from a complete Advanced Laser Therapy program. Confirm the services included in your proposed course during consultation.
Can PRP be used alongside a hair transplant?
PRP may be considered as an additional treatment around a transplant, following medical assessment.
Where can I have Growth Factors treatment?
Growth Factors is offered at selected Advanced Hair clinics. Contact our team to confirm availability and the assessment pathway for your location before booking treatment.
