What is PRP?

It is platelet rich plasma.

Autologous PRP contains different growth factors and other cytokines which may elicit gathering of stem cells around the damaged region stimulating cellular proliferation and tissue regeneration.

  • PRP contains certain growth factors like:
  • TGF-B (Transforming Growth Factor-beta)
  • PDGFa-b (Platelet Derived Growth Factor)
  • bFGF (Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor)
  • EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor)
  • VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor)
  • CTGF (Connective Tissue Growth Factor

How PRP works


The platelets contain different type of granules which have numerous growth factore and cytokines. When the PRP is injected the growth factors and cytokines act as chemotactic factors for mesenchymal stem cell , which means they attrect the stem cells to the site and also activate the dermal papilla stem cells. These growth factors also help to promote the growth in the miniaturized follicle there by making it healthy and thick.

PRP in Delhi


At Hair & Senses, we try to make any procedure we do as comfortable as possible. The procedure is fully done in a dedicated PRP procedure room which has the full infrastructure and the PRP Centrifuge there only, so that there is no need to transfer the blood samples here and there. At our clinic, we used Refrigerated PRP Centrifuge which has inbuilt software for this purpose only. This helps us to maintain the platelets at optimal temperature and in optimal number per ml. because the studies have shown that above 40-degree celcius there may be heat induced structural changes in the platelets.

FDA approved vials and kits are used at our center to ensure that patient gets the best possible results. Good local anesthetic techniques are used to make the procedure as comfortable and as pain-free as possible.
