Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

for Hair Loss

PRP injections deliver concentrated growth factors to the lateral epicondyle tendon, potentially stimulating repair in chronic tennis elbow resistant to other treatments.

How it works

Concentrated growth factors (PDGF, TGF-β, VEGF) stimulate tenocyte proliferation and new collagen synthesis at the degenerative tendon attachment.

What to watch for

Requires clinical administration (a doctor or dermatologist). Multiple sessions needed (typically 3–4 initially, then 6-monthly maintenance). Expensive and not covered by most insurance. Results vary between individuals.
