PRP hair treatment (platelet-rich plasma) is a natural hair-restoration method that uses the patient\'s own blood plasma. Platelets contain growth factors that stimulate hair follicles, improve scalp circulation and can slow hair loss. At the Rubenhair clinic in Riga we offer PRP both as a standalone treatment and as a complement to hair transplantation.
How the PRP procedure works step by step
First a small amount of blood is drawn, just like a routine blood test. The blood is placed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma. The plasma is then injected precisely into the scalp with fine needles in the thinning areas. The whole procedure takes about 30–45 minutes, is performed on an outpatient basis, and you can return to your daily routine right away.
Who PRP therapy is suitable for
PRP works best in the early and middle stages of hair loss, while the follicles are still viable. It is used for both men and women — especially in diffuse thinning and androgenetic alopecia. If follicles are already fully lost, PRP alone will not regrow hair; in such cases a specialist may recommend FUE hair transplantation during the consultation.
PRP combined with other methods
The best result is often achieved by combining approaches. PRP therapy can be combined with daily Minoxidil use or applied after a hair transplant to support graft survival. We build the exact treatment path — from diagnosis to procedure — individually after a scalp examination.
Results and courses
PRP is not a one-off fix: first improvements are usually visible after a course of several sessions, and the result is maintained with repeat sessions a few times a year. Results are individual and depend on the cause of hair loss, so we assess each patient conservatively and do not promise guaranteed numbers.
Price and booking in Riga
