Noticing thinning of the hairlines, finding the right treatment can mean the difference between managing your hair or truly changing it. At ASG Hair Transplant Centre, we have personalised all the hair transplants, which can help in making an educated decision based on your stage of hair loss and your lifestyle.
What are hair transplants?
A hair transplant is a cosmetic surgery that involves the implantation of hair over the scalp, mostly taken from the back of the head. The method is primarily used by people experiencing hair loss or thinning to achieve a fuller head of hair.
What Is PRP Treatment?
This is a method that uses a patient-to-blood to invigorating healing and tissue regeneration, looking to reactivate dormant follicles using your body’s healing properties:
- A small blood sample is drawn.
- It’s centrifuged to separate the platelet‑rich layer from other components.
- This concentrate—rich in growth factors—is injected into thinning areas.
Which Option Fits Your Profile?
Consider PRP treatment if:
- You’re in the early stages of thinning (miniaturised follicles, a widening part, diffuse decline).
- You prefer a nonsurgical solution with minimal recovery.
- You want to delay or complement a future transplant, or improve scalp health.
- You’re ready to commit to multiple sessions over months for incremental gains.
Consider a Hair Transplant if:
- You have clear bald spots, front-line recession, or pattern baldness.
- Donor hair is stable and sufficient to harvest.
- You want a one-time, permanent solution with minimal long-term maintenance.
- You’re comfortable with a surgical procedure and follow-up care.
Blending Both Treatments
For choosing patients, a hybrid approach works best:
PRP + transplant: PRP can be used before, during, or after a hair transplant to promote faster healing, reduce shock loss, and support follicle growth.
This plan provides permanent coverage of transplantation, along with the long-term and conditioning benefits of PRP.
Conclusion
There is no one-size-fits-all answer when deciding between hair transplant and PRP treatment. Having the right choice relies on how upgrading your hair loss is the option for the surgical vs nonsurgical response on the results:
- PRP treatment provides a gentle, natural boost perfect for early thinning and preserving.
- Hair transplant, mostly with new FUE specialised, delivers permanent and changing results. At ASG Hair Transplant Centre, we specialise in each plan, and if you’re unsure where to start, we always suggest an initial trichoscopy and medical assessment to chart the best route for you.
