Overview of PRP for Hair Growth in Kent
At Fine Art Aesthetics Dr Salman is delighted to offer PRP treatments at his clinics in Kent and Sussex. It has been recently found that PRP treatments can be used for a number of treatments in the body, one of which is stimulating hair growth.
PRP, or Platelet Rich Plasma, is a process where a patient’s blood is drawn from a vein, placed in a centrifuge, and the red blood cells are separated from the rest of the blood. This leaves the plasma part of the blood to be drawn and used for many different regenerative treatments in different parts of the body.
PRP works for hair growth by using the body’s own healing powers to stimulate hair follicles. PRP is a concentrated solution of platelets and growth factors, which are derived from the patient’s own blood. The platelets and growth factors are injected into the scalp, which stimulates the scalp to increase the production of new hair follicles and hair shafts. This helps to strengthen existing hair follicles and promote new hair growth.
This technology has been around since the 1970’s to treat athletic injuries but its regenerative benefits in the aesthetics field were recently discovered. PRP therapy is one of the latest advancements in medical aesthetics and Dr Salman’s clinic is a provider of the therapy for hair growth in Kent and the East Sussex region. PRP is a technique that uses the body’s own healing factors to increase hair growth.
The main benefit of PRP therapy is that it naturally encourages the body’s own healing response, consistently providing new health and improved appearance with minimal downtime.

The process works by extracting a patient’s own blood and spinning it in a centrifuge to separate the plasma, which is then injected into the affected area. The needles used for PRP injections are very small and are designed to minimize the discomfort of the injection. They are also very precise in order to ensure accurate placement of the PRP into the scalp.
Your Medical History
Dr Salman will ask you for a full medical history at the consultation. He will only commence treatment if he is confident you are medically suitable for it. Dr Salman may refer to your GP if necessary. There are certain contraindications to lip filler treatments which may mean you cannot have the treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between PRP therapy and Stem Cell therapy?
PRP therapy is a form of regenerative medicine that utilizes a person’s own platelet-rich plasma to stimulate tissue healing and regeneration. Platelets are the portion of the blood that contain growth factors, which are proteins that stimulate healing, and are extracted from the patient’s own blood. Stem cell therapy is a form of regenerative medicine that utilizes stem cells to help regenerate and repair tissue. Stem cells are special cells that can differentiate into any type of cell, and can be extracted from a variety of sources, including a person’s own body. When injected into an injured area, the stem cells can help to repair and grow new tissue. Unlike PRP therapy, stem cell therapy can involve the use of stem cells from a donor, as well as the patient’s own stem cells.
Is PRP safe?
