PRP stands for Platelet Rich Plasma — and it is one of the most scientifically supported, non-surgical hair restoration treatments available today. The concept is elegantly simple: your blood contains platelets loaded with growth factors that your body naturally uses to repair and regenerate tissue. PRP therapy isolates and concentrates these growth factors, then delivers them precisely to the scalp where hair follicles need them most.
The result is a targeted biological signal that wakes up dormant follicles, strengthens those that are thinning, and creates a significantly more favourable environment for natural, healthy hair growth.
At Shape Wellness in Kolapakkam, Porur, PRP hair therapy is performed by experienced specialists using a clinically controlled process — from blood draw to scalp delivery — with every step designed for safety, comfort, and optimal results.
PRP therapy is a genuinely versatile treatment that addresses a wide range of hair loss causes and concerns. At Shape Wellness, we treat clients experiencing:
This is the most common form of hair loss in both men and women — characterised by a gradual thinning of hair at the crown, temples, or along the parting. PRP is one of the most clinically studied treatments for androgenetic alopecia and has shown consistent results in slowing progression and stimulating regrowth in the early to moderate stages.
If your hair has gradually become thinner, more fragile, and less voluminous overall — without a clearly defined pattern — PRP therapy can help strengthen the existing follicles and improve the overall quality and density of your hair.
Many women experience significant hair shedding in the months following childbirth, as hormone levels readjust after delivery. PRP treatment can accelerate the recovery of the hair growth cycle and support the return of healthy, full hair growth after this period.
Physical or emotional stress can push a large number of hair follicles into a resting phase simultaneously, causing sudden and noticeable shedding. PRP therapy helps reactivate these follicles and restore a healthy growth rhythm.
The earlier hair loss is addressed, the better the outcome. If you've noticed the first signs of thinning or shedding and want to act before it progresses further, PRP is an excellent proactive option.
The science behind PRP is rooted in the body's own biology — which is a large part of what makes it both effective and safe.
A small amount of your blood is drawn — similar to a routine blood test. This typically takes just a few minutes and is performed by our trained specialist.
Your blood sample is placed into a specialised centrifuge that spins at high speed, separating it into its components. This process concentrates the platelet-rich plasma — the layer richest in growth factors — away from the red blood cells and other components.
The concentrated PRP is carefully prepared and, in some protocols, activated to maximise the release of growth factors before injection.
Using fine, precise micro-injections, the PRP is administered directly into the areas of the scalp where hair loss or thinning is most pronounced. The growth factors penetrate the follicles at the root level, stimulating cellular activity and encouraging the transition from the resting phase back into active hair growth.
The entire session at our Kolapakkam clinic typically takes between 45 to 60 minutes, and most clients find the procedure well-tolerated with minimal discomfort.
PRP hair therapy delivers progressive, natural results — and it is important to understand that hair regrowth takes time, because it follows the biology of your own hair growth cycle.
Most clients at Shape Wellness begin to notice a reduction in hair shedding within the first 4 to 6 weeks of starting treatment. Visible improvement in hair thickness and early signs of new growth typically become apparent after 3 to 4 sessions. Significant improvements in hair density and coverage are generally observed after completing a full course of treatment.
It is worth noting that PRP is not a single-session solution. Hair follicles respond to cumulative biological stimulation, and results build meaningfully over the course of treatment. Clients who complete their recommended protocol consistently report the most satisfying and lasting outcomes.
For most clients, an initial course of 4 to 6 sessions spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart is recommended to build a strong foundation of regrowth and follicle strengthening. Following this, maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months help sustain the results long-term.
The exact number of sessions for your specific situation will depend on the type and severity of your hair loss, your age, underlying health factors, and how your scalp responds to initial treatment. Your specialist at Shape Wellness will outline a clear and realistic treatment plan during your consultation — so you always have a transparent picture of your journey from the very beginning.
PRP is considered one of the safest hair restoration procedures available — largely because it uses your own biological material. Since the plasma is derived from your own blood, the risk of allergic reaction or rejection is virtually eliminated.
At Shape Wellness, all PRP treatments are performed under strict clinical protocols using sterile, single-use equipment. The procedure is non-surgical, requires no general anaesthesia, and involves minimal downtime. Most clients resume their normal activities within 24 hours of each session.
As with any injectable treatment, mild scalp tenderness, redness, or slight swelling at the injection sites is normal and typically resolves within a day or two. Serious complications are extremely rare when treatment is performed by qualified, experienced specialists — which is exactly what you will find at our Kolapakkam clinic.
There are many approaches to managing hair loss — from topical minoxidil and oral medications to surgical hair transplants. PRP occupies a uniquely effective middle ground: it is more targeted and biologically active than topical treatments, and far less invasive than surgical options.
It is also often used alongside other treatments to enhance overall results. Many clients at Shape Wellness combine PRP with a personalised hair care regimen or nutritional support for a more comprehensive hair restoration strategy. Your specialist will always advise the most appropriate combination for your individual needs.
Because PRP is derived from your own blood, it works entirely with your body's natural healing mechanisms. There are no synthetic chemicals, no foreign substances — just your own concentrated growth factors, delivered exactly where they are needed.
PRP hair therapy is one of the most studied non-surgical hair restoration treatments in the world. Multiple clinical studies support its effectiveness in reducing hair loss and stimulating new follicular activity — particularly in androgenetic alopecia and diffuse thinning.
No surgery, no scalpel, no stitches, and no extended recovery. Most clients return to their normal routine within 24 hours of each session, making PRP one of the most convenient hair restoration options available.
Beyond stimulating new growth, PRP nourishes and strengthens the follicles you already have — improving the thickness, texture, and overall quality of your existing hair alongside any new growth.
Hair loss affects people of all genders, and PRP is a clinically appropriate treatment for both men and women experiencing a wide range of hair loss types and severities.
Because PRP works by enhancing your own natural hair growth, results look and feel completely authentic. There is no sudden dramatic change — just a gradual, natural-looking restoration of the hair you remember.
Hair is deeply connected to identity. When it thins or falls, the emotional impact is real. Clients at Shape Wellness consistently tell us that watching their hair return — strand by strand, session by session — is one of the most quietly empowering experiences they have had.
Hair loss is a nuanced medical concern with multiple potential causes. At Shape Wellness, our specialists take the time to understand the root cause of your specific hair loss before recommending any treatment. This diagnostic approach is what separates meaningful results from temporary fixes.
Not all PRP treatments are created equal. The quality of your results depends significantly on the concentration of growth factors in the PRP prepared and the precision of its delivery. At Shape Wellness, we follow a strict, clinically validated PRP protocol to ensure maximum efficacy at every session.
Every hair loss journey is different. We build your treatment plan around your specific diagnosis, hair type, lifestyle, and goals — not a one-size-fits-all package. Your specialist will walk you through everything during your initial consultation and keep you informed at every stage of your treatment.
Your safety is non-negotiable. All equipment used at Shape Wellness meets international clinical standards, and every PRP session is conducted under strict sterile conditions with single-use materials throughout.
