PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy uses growth factors from your own blood to revive hair follicles. A small blood sample is processed to concentrate the platelets, which are delivered to the scalp to stimulate regeneration — a minimally invasive, autologous treatment that increases density and supports the scalp's regenerative environment, backed by a growing body of published clinical evidence.

The science
What is PRP therapy for hair?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy uses growth factors from your own blood to revive hair follicles. A small blood sample is processed to concentrate the platelets, which are then delivered to the scalp to stimulate regeneration.
Because PRP uses your own blood, it's considered very safe — there's no foreign substance and minimal risk of allergic reaction. At PROGEN™, PRP is often combined with microfocused ultrasound hair restoration for enhanced results.
Not sure where to start? Treatments are often combined — PRP is frequently paired with MFU — and every plan begins with a free consultation and scalp analysis.
