Overview

What Is PRP Treatment?

Platelet-rich plasma treatment uses a sample of the patient's own blood, processed to concentrate platelets and growth factors before reinjection into skin or scalp. PRP is used for selected skin-rejuvenation or hair-loss plans, but outcomes depend on the diagnosis, blood-processing protocol, and realistic expectations.

How it’s performed
Blood drawn, centrifuged to isolate platelet-rich plasma, injected into target area by qualified physician; 45–60 minutes.
Preparation
Well-hydrated before treatment. Avoid blood-thinners 1 week before. No NSAIDs 48 hours before.
Recovery
3-session protocol at monthly intervals; maintenance once or twice per year.
Regulatory note: Slovenia and Croatia are EU member states; Serbia follows its national healthcare framework. Ask each clinic which authority licenses the surgeon and facility, and how complaints and follow-up are handled.
Suitability

Who Is a Good Candidate?

The following criteria apply to most prp treatment patients. A thorough consultation with your surgeon is always required to confirm individual suitability.

Adults with a defined skin-quality or pattern-hair-loss goal suitable for regenerative treatment
Patients with enough blood volume and no medical reason that makes drawing or reinjection unsafe
People who understand that PRP usually works as a course rather than a single dramatic treatment
Patients willing to continue evidence-based hair-loss treatment or skincare when their clinician recommends it

A reputable clinic will conduct a full medical history review before confirming you are a suitable candidate. Never proceed with a clinic that skips this consultation.

Benefits

Benefits of PRP Treatment

Patients who are well-selected and have realistic expectations commonly report the following outcomes:

  • Uses autologous material, avoiding a manufactured filler product
  • May improve skin texture or support hair density in selected patients over several sessions
  • Can be tailored to facial skin, scars, or scalp according to the treatment goal
  • A documented centrifuge and injection protocol makes quality easier to compare between clinics
Risks

Risks to Consider

All surgical procedures carry some element of risk. Understanding these before proceeding is important. Your surgeon will discuss risks specific to your anatomy and medical history during consultation.

Pain and bruising: Needle discomfort, swelling, and bruising can be more noticeable on the scalp or around the eyes.
Infection: Any injection carries infection risk; sterile blood handling and aftercare are essential.
Uneven response: Results can vary by diagnosis, age, medications, platelet function, and the condition of the treated tissue.
Delayed evaluation: Hair shedding or skin changes can have another cause, so a proper diagnosis should not be skipped.
This summary is for informational purposes only. Always discuss your full medical history and individual risk profile with a qualified surgeon or practitioner before proceeding.
Recovery

Recovery Timeline

Recovery timelines vary between patients. The guide below reflects typical progression; your surgeon will provide personalised guidance based on your specific procedure and health.

First 24 hours
Tenderness and pinpoint bleeding can occur. Keep the area clean and follow washing instructions.
Days 2–5
Redness and swelling settle for most patients; avoid vigorous exercise, alcohol, and irritants as advised.
Weeks 2–6
Skin texture changes are gradual. Hair protocols typically assess shedding and early response over several weeks.
Months 3–6
A course often uses monthly sessions, with a longer review to decide whether maintenance is useful.

3-session protocol at monthly intervals; maintenance once or twice per year.

Questions

PRP Treatment: Frequently Asked Questions

What conditions is PRP used to treat?

PRP is used for facial skin rejuvenation (improving skin texture, tone, and hydration), under-eye area improvement, hair loss treatment (androgenic alopecia — scalp injections stimulate dormant follicles), and as a complement to micro-needling for enhanced penetration. It can also be used for neck, décolletage, and hands.

How does PRP work?

A small sample of the patient's blood is drawn and placed in a centrifuge that separates it into layers by density. The platelet-rich plasma layer — which contains high concentrations of growth factors (PDGF, TGF-β, VEGF, EGF) — is extracted and injected into the target area. These growth factors stimulate collagen production, cell regeneration, and tissue repair.

How many PRP sessions are needed?

For skin rejuvenation, a standard protocol consists of three monthly sessions, followed by maintenance treatments once or twice per year. For hair loss treatment, three to six monthly sessions are typical, with maintenance every 3–6 months. Individual response varies; some patients see significant improvement after two sessions, while others require the full protocol.

Is PRP suitable for all hair loss types?

PRP is most effective for androgenic alopecia (pattern hair loss) and can be combined with FUE/DHI hair transplantation to improve graft survival and accelerate growth. It is less effective for alopecia areata (immune-mediated) and scarring alopecia (where follicles are permanently destroyed). A qualified trichologist can assess whether PRP is appropriate for your specific hair loss pattern.
