PRP/Exosomes for Hair

Strengthen Follicles, Restore Density Naturally

What It Is

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) uses growth factors extracted from your own blood to stimulate hair follicles and encourage natural regrowth. Exosomes are regenerative cell-signalling vesicles that amplify this process, delivering concentrated repair signals directly to the scalp for stronger, more sustained results.

What It Does

The treatment reactivates dormant follicles, reduces hair thinning, and improves hair density and quality over time. Results develop gradually across several months as follicles strengthen and new growth cycles begin. Most clients notice visible improvement in thickness and coverage after a course of sessions.

The Approach

Multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart create cumulative improvement. This is not a one-off fix but a phased approach that works with your body’s natural hair growth cycles. Dr Etok will tailor the treatment plan to your specific pattern of thinning and your goals.

Is PRP/Exosomes for Hair Right For You?

This treatment suits clients experiencing thinning hair, early-stage hair loss, or reduced hair density who want a non-surgical solution. It works best for those with active follicles that can be stimulated, rather than areas of complete baldness. Ideal if you value a natural, gradual approach and are willing to commit to a course of treatments for the best results.

THE TREATMENT PROCESS

Regenerative Hair Restoration Without Surgery

For PRP, a small blood sample is taken and placed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma. This concentrated solution, rich in growth factors, is then injected into the scalp at targeted areas of thinning using fine needles. When exosomes are included, they are applied alongside the PRP to enhance the regenerative signal reaching your follicles. The process typically takes around 45 to 60 minutes.

Most clients experience minimal discomfort during treatment, with a topical anaesthetic applied to the scalp beforehand. There is no significant downtime, and you can return to normal activities the same day. Some mild tenderness or redness at the injection sites is normal and usually resolves within 24 to 48 hours. A course of 3 to 6 sessions is typically recommended, with results becoming visible from around 3 to 6 months as hair growth cycles respond to the treatment.

Answers to Common Questions About Your Treatment

Find helpful guidance on what to expect before and after your appointment. These answers are based on real questions from clients just like you.

PRP is derived from your own blood and contains growth factors that stimulate healing and cell renewal. Exosomes are tiny vesicles produced by stem cells that carry concentrated signalling molecules, including over a thousand growth factors. When used together, they work synergistically: PRP activates your body’s repair response while exosomes amplify and direct that response for stronger, more targeted follicle regeneration.

Most clients benefit from a course of 3 to 6 initial sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. After the initial course, maintenance sessions every 6 to 12 months help sustain and build on the results. Dr Etok will recommend a plan based on the extent of your thinning and how your hair responds to the early sessions.

Hair growth is a gradual process. Most clients begin to notice reduced shedding within the first few weeks, with visible improvement in thickness and density from around 3 to 6 months. Results continue to develop with each session as follicles strengthen and new growth cycles establish. Patience and consistency are important for the best outcome.

The treatment works best for androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss), age-related thinning, and stress-related hair loss where follicles are still present but weakened or dormant. It is less effective for areas of complete baldness where follicles have been permanently lost. Dr Etok will assess your scalp during consultation and advise whether you are a suitable candidate.

There is no significant downtime. You can return to your normal routine the same day. Avoid washing your hair or applying products for 24 hours after treatment, and refrain from strenuous exercise for 48 hours. Some mild redness or tenderness at the injection sites is normal and typically clears within a day or two.

A topical anaesthetic is applied to the scalp before treatment to minimise discomfort. Most clients describe the sensation as mild pressure or a light pricking feeling during the injections. The blood draw for PRP is similar to a routine blood test. Any tenderness afterwards is usually very mild and short-lived.

Yes. PRP and exosomes work well alongside other hair restoration strategies, including topical treatments and nutritional support. For clients also interested in facial rejuvenation, these treatments complement skin-focused options like Profhilo, polynucleotides, or NeoGen Plasma. Dr Etok can advise on the best overall plan during your consultation.

Yes. Hair thinning and loss affect both men and women, and PRP with exosomes is effective for both. The treatment approach is adapted to the pattern and cause of thinning, which can differ between men and women. During consultation, Dr Etok will assess your specific situation and recommend a plan tailored to your needs.
