Because it uses your own blood, there are virtually no issues with rejection or infection. Only a small number of people may experience slight redness, swelling, or tightness after the procedure, which usually subsides naturally within 24-48 hours.
Highly recommended. PRP can optimize the scalp environment, improve the survival rate of transplanted hair follicles, and accelerate the healing speed of the donor and recipient areas.
Our hospital uses a professional scalp anesthetic spray, which significantly reduces the pricking sensation. Most patients report only a slight tingling sensation and minimal discomfort.
Results may vary depending on individual circumstances. After completing the basic treatment, it is recommended to have maintenance treatments 1-2 times a year to maintain optimal hair follicle activity.
It is generally recommended to complete a full course of treatment with 3-6 sessions, each spaced approximately 4-6 weeks apart. Most patients notice a reduction in hair loss and a thicker hair texture after the 2nd-3rd treatment.
Currently, PRP is a fully out-of-pocket procedure and is not covered by health insurance. The cost per procedure ranges from approximately NT$15,000 to NT$20,000. If the injury is due to an accident or qualifies for outpatient surgery/hospitalization, reimbursement-based insurance policies often cover the costs. It is recommended to consult an insurance agent to confirm the policy terms before undergoing the procedure.
Direct injection is not recommended for individuals with platelet dysfunction, sepsis, acute/chronic infectious diseases, active infection of the affected area, immune system diseases, malignant tumors, pregnant women, or those taking anticoagulants long-term.
There may be temporary soreness during the injection. If you feel unwell 3-7 days after the procedure, you can apply warm compresses (or ice packs) multiple times to relieve the soreness and pain, and take Acetaminophen. However, remember not to use anti-inflammatory drugs.
PRP provides non-immediate pain relief, with most patients experiencing improvement within one month, and the most significant repair effect after two to three months; some studies show that the effect can last for more than a year.
