Hair loss is a common concern for both men and women, and PRP hair treatment in Dubai has emerged as a highly effective, non-surgical solution. Many patients wonder: “How is the PRP procedure performed, and what should I expect?”
At Tajmeels Clinic, certified dermatologists and trichologists follow a detailed, step-by-step PRP procedure to ensure safety, comfort, and optimal hair regrowth. This article provides a comprehensive explanation of the PRP hair treatment procedure, from consultation to post-care, helping patients feel confident and informed.
What is PRP Hair Treatment?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy involves using the patient’s own blood plasma, enriched with platelets and growth factors, to stimulate hair follicles. The treatment promotes:
Activation of dormant hair follicles
Strengthening of existing hair
Natural hair regrowth
Improved scalp health
Because PRP is autologous (using your own blood), it is safe, minimally invasive, and has very low risk of side effects.
Step-by-Step PRP Hair Treatment Procedure
1. Initial Consultation
Every patient begins with a thorough evaluation at Tajmeels Clinic:
Assess hair loss pattern and severity
Examine scalp health
Discuss medical history and suitability for PRP
Set realistic expectations and design a personalized treatment plan
This ensures the procedure is safe and tailored to each individual.
2. Blood Collection
A small amount of blood (10–20 ml) is drawn from the patient, typically from the arm. Since the treatment uses the patient’s own blood, the risk of allergic reactions or infections is extremely low.
3. Centrifugation
The collected blood is processed in a centrifuge to separate platelet-rich plasma from red and white blood cells.
Duration: 10–15 minutes
Result: Concentrated plasma containing growth factors to stimulate hair follicles
This platelet-rich plasma is the active component used in the therapy.
4. Scalp Preparation
The scalp is cleaned and disinfected. To ensure patient comfort:
Topical anesthesia or numbing cream may be applied
Targeted areas for PRP injection are marked
Sterile techniques are strictly followed to prevent infection
5. PRP Injection
The concentrated plasma is injected into thinning or balding areas using fine needles. The injections:
Deliver growth factors directly to hair follicles
Stimulate dormant follicles
Improve blood circulation in the scalp
Pain is minimal due to topical numbing, and the procedure typically takes under an hour.

After the procedure:
Mild redness or tenderness may appear for 24–48 hours
Patients can resume daily activities immediately
Avoid chemical treatments or heat styling for 2–3 days
Follow post-care instructions provided by your dermatologist
Proper aftercare ensures maximum effectiveness and minimal side effects.
