PRP Hair Loss Treatment London
PRP for Hair loss at NAR London, Harley Street Clinic. Discover the benefits of plasma injection to tackle hair loss and hair thinning for men and women.
Why have Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)?
As a matter of fact, hair thinning and hair loss affect millions of men and women and is very distressing for most people. The good news is that hair regrowth is possible with a PRP treatment depending on the stage and nature of your condition.
By now, you probably heard about the innovative, non-invasive, non-surgical Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. This is a treatment for men and women experiencing hair loss, receding hairline, and miniaturised hair follicles. Follicular miniaturisation is a phenomenon when the strands of hair become thinner and thinner with the passage of time or other causes. As a result, these hair follicles stop producing thick, healthy hair, or eventually, any hair at all. However, these follicles are still present in the scalp!
Can PRP treatment help?
PRP hair restoration is a safe solution that involves injecting the scalp with platelet-rich plasma obtained from the patient’s own blood to restore miniaturised follicles and repair damaged tissues.
Our PRP hair treatment is geared towards regenerating existing hair follicles, allowing them to produce thicker, healthier strands.
Thus, the “N-PRP” treatment is one of the most effective, non-invasive, natural, and relatively painless hair growth treatments. Hence, It is probably why it is one of the most sought-after hair loss treatments on the market today.
Procedure for Hair PRP
First, we collect around 8-10 ml of your own blood, place it and spin it in a centrifuge. Subsequently, this separates white blood cells from red blood cells. Then, the special “enriched platelets” solution (N-PRP) is extracted and injected into the scalp. This PRP scalp injection is a regenerative therapy that stimulates healthy cell growth.
At NAR London, we use the highest quality tubes enriched with biotin and this increases the possibility of better results.
Moreover, we use the ‘U225 Meso injector’ device that makes the experience painless in comparison to traditional needles.
Please note that 3 to 6 sessions (depending on cases) per year are recommended for obtaining optimal visible results.
Should you wish, you can also book a consultation with our Hair Loss Specialist. Please note that consultation fee is £50 that can be redeemed against most treatments we offer at our clinic. Consultation fees can be deducted from the cost of treatments held within 3 month of the original consultation date. Please reschedule or cancel 24h before your appointment or you risk losing your deposit.

Benefits of PRP hair
In fact, platelets contain important growth factor and encourage regrowth of blood vessels, cells and tissue.
Henceforth, the ‘N-PRP’ can potentially reverse hair loss by increasing the dermal papilla cells. Thus, it works best for treating thinning hair and slowing or stopping the progression of hair loss and even stimulating dormant hair follicles.
PRP + Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is a hair regrowth treatment that involves injecting a specialized cocktail of vitamins and minerals directly into the scalp. This treatment aims to nourish and stimulate the hair follicle’s natural regeneration process.
The treatment involves a minimally invasive process in which a special mesotherapy hair complex containing a mixture of plant extracts, vitamins, and bioactive substances is applied through intradermal microinjections.
The combination of PRP and Mesotherapy helps to strengthen and energise the hair follicles. We recommend combining PRP and Mesotherapy for optimal results.

FAQ’s about PRP Hair
PRP HAIR LOSS IN LONDON, UK
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous treatment that is popular to help treat hair loss, hair thinning and receding hairline. The procedure is safe and in most cases delivers great results. Here below are some frequently asked questions about PRP.
What causes hair loss in women?
Generally, the main cause of hair loss in women is the weakening of hair follicles. This said the reasons for this weakening differ from woman to woman but a great majority of women suffer from hair thinning that is hereditary related. More than 40% of women will experience hair loss in their lifetime. Though, there is a wide range of other factors that can cause hair loss in women, including age, stress, nutrition, illnesses, medication, lifestyle factors, hair care routines, and more.
What causes hair loss in men?
For men, hair loss is also primarily hereditary. It follows a specific, progressive pattern (male pattern hair loss), a receding hairline that is triggered by the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT). For males, hair loss also occurs when hair follicles weaken and stop producing new hair.
What is PRP and how does it work?
For many years, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatments have shown their ability to stimulate and increase growth factors activity to improve wound healing and rejuvenate human tissue. In fact, this treatment is used in many medical specialties such as sports orthopedy, dentistry, facial reconstruction, neurosurgery, dermatology, hair growth, and cosmetic and plastic surgery. PRP is an autologous treatment meaning that it comes, in this case, from your own blood.
PRP & Hair Restoration?
So, how can PRP help with hair loss? Well, it is by the release and utilisation of growth factors that PRP stimulates follicular hair growth. additionally, PRP has alpha granules of glycogen and lysosomes. These granules and intracellular structures within the PRP release clotting and growth factors when activated. As a consequence, these help in the healing and in rejuvenation of the body’s natural repair process.
Some of these numerous growth factors include the following:
- Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) – Promotes blood vessel growth, cell replication, skin formation
- Transforming Growth-Factor-Beta (TGF-b) – Encourages growth of matrix between cells, bone metabolism;
- Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) – Fosters blood vessel formation;
- Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) – Advances cell growth and differentiation, blood vessel formation, collagen formation, and skin formation;
- Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 (FGF-2) – Stimulates growth of specialized cells and blood vessel formation;
- Insulin-Like Growth Factor (IGF) – Is a regulator of normal physiology in nearly every type of cell in the body;
- Interleukin (IL-1) – Regulates host defenses and is an immunoadjuvant.
Who is Suitable for PRP hair Treatment?
- Suitable for Female pattern hair loss & for Male pattern hair loss;
- Anyone with thinning hair;
- People suffering from excessive hair loss;
- Patient looking for a natural, non-invasive hair growth treatment;
- Women who notice hair loss post-pregnancy;
- Female observing hair change following menopausal period;
- Patient with androgenic alopecia;
- For those who want to strengthen their hair follicles even if no excessive hair loss.
What can PRP for Hair achieve?
The results can vary from person to person. We cannot promise that this treatment will work for you. This said, we and many studies have observed the following benefits of PRP for hair:
- Slow or stop hair loss;
- Stimulate dormant and existing follicles;
- Significantly increase in hair regrowth;
- Enhance the production of new healthy cells;
- Can decrease hair dystrophy;
- Non-invasive treatment option in Alopecia areata;
- Fuller and healthier natural-looking hair;
- Safe and reliable treatment.
How Many PRP injections do I need?
To an extent, It depends on the individual and on the stage of your hair loss, age, hormones, and other factors. This said anyone can benefit from a PRP treatment, especially if related to hair or skin improvement.
Usually, we recommend a course of 3 to 6 injections, administered on a monthly basis for optimal results. In addition, we also recommend a maintenance treatment every six months or once a year.
What are the results of PRP Hair Loss?
As said, in our view PRP is one of the best non-invasive treatments for both women and men suffering from excessive hair loss. In fact, there are a number of independent scientific studies advocating for the efficacy of PRP particularly in increasing hair follicles count and hair thickness.
Our clients are often amazed when they see before and after pictures as the results are clearly visible. However, we cannot promise that PRP treatment will work for you as results can vary from individual to individual.
Can PRP be combined with Mesotherapy?
indeed, PRP can be used in conjunction with other treatments such as Mesotherapy.
Mesotherapy successfully restores volume to thinning hair and stimulate hair follicles. In essence, hair mesotherapy is based on the understanding that most hair loss problems could be the result of three major issues:
- Lack of proper nutrients;
- Reduced blood circulation to the scalp;
- and hormone imbalances around the hair follicle.
The combination of PRP & Mesotherapy can enhance the results of the procedure. You can talk to our practitioner to get the best recommendation.
Is PRP beneficial after hair transplants?
Affirmative, PRP is a sought-after treatment to reinforce the results of hair transplants. Therefore, if you had or planning to have hair transplants, you should consider PRP as an addition.
Any risks associated with PRP for hair loss?
Many studies state that PRP for hair loss is totally safe as we use our own body growth factors and cytokines (autologous products). Hence, there are virtually no risk of allergic reactions. Moreover, as PRP is prepared using your own blood, adverse reactions are very rare. The only thing you might experience is very slight bruising, redness, and/or temporary swelling. There is virtually no downtime after this treatment.
Which conditions will not work with PRP?
In some cases, PRP will not work effectively:
- If you suffer from thyroid disease or lupus, PRP for Hair Loss may not be effective. The reason is that these conditions will continue to cause hair loss.
- Do not take blood thinners prior to the procedure (48/72 hours)
- People with extreme hair loss or non-existing follicles are generally not candidates for PRP hair treatments.
Post PRP treatment recommendation?
We ask patients not to wash their hair for 24 hours or so after treatment. Moreover, we strongly suggest following a healthy diet, not drinking alcohol, and not smoking as long as you can as this affects the quality of your plasma (and overall health).

Why We Love Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy?
We firmly believe in the benefits of PRP based on science and on our experience with hundreds of patients. The fact is that with PRP therapy, we harness your own platelets and growth factors to stimulate hair growth naturally. We love platelet-rich plasma as it is our body’s own form of regenerative medicine. When we inject PRP back into the scalp, the growth factors stimulate your hair follicles and that can lead to new growth. In particular, PRP is great at reviving dormant follicles to bring them to the anagen phase. We’ve seen dramatic results in tackling hair loss for men and women, of almost all ages. Needless to say that we practice this procedure on ourselves to regenerate hair follicles but also collagen and elastin on the face.

Certainly, Nar London is in central London. We are located in World famous Harley Street, London, UK. If you are based in London or can travel to central London then book a treatment or a consultation. Alternatively, you can directly book your N-PRP treatment online.
Can I have PRP even if I do not suffer from visible hair loss?
We believe it is actually beneficial to have PRP even if you do not notice hair thinning and excessive hair loss. The fact is that we tend to unusually lose a lot of hair without realizing it. So, when we visibly notice it that means we already lost so much hair. The expression “prevention is better than cure” sounds true in regards to hair loss. Therefore, PRP + Mesotherapy can definitely help stimulate and nourish your hair follicles. If your hair is very important to you and you have nightmares about losing them then Platelet-Rich Plasma is a safe and valuable treatment to have.
How effective is PRP in London?
Out of all of the minimally invasive treatments, you can find on the market today regarding hair growth, PRP is probably one of the most effective. However, it is important to state that results are going to vary from person to person and there is never any guarantee of success.
Overall though, Nar London’s PRP is an effective non-surgical procedure that, in our experience, works well to stimulate hair follicles and induce hair growth. Furthermore, PRP can potentially reverse hair thinning and promote the growth of new hair.

PRP for hair thinning and hair loss is quite a comfortable procedure. We use the U225 mesogun to enhance your experience as the scalp is a sensitive area. Therefore, rest assured you will not suffer.
