It starts quietly. A little more hair on the pillow in the morning. A slightly wider parting when you style your hair. A handful in the shower that used to be a few loose strands. You tell yourself it's seasonal. Or stress. Or just a phase that will pass.
And then one day you notice yourself angling differently in photographs. Choosing hairstyles designed to conceal rather than express. Carrying a quiet, background anxiety about something that once never crossed your mind.
Hair fall, whether it's gradual diffuse thinning, a receding hairline, or sudden shedding, is not something you just have to live with. It has causes. It has treatments. And at Refine Skin Clinic, it always starts with understanding exactly what's causing yours.
Hair fall is not a single condition, it's a symptom that can come from a dozen different origins. Treating it without first understanding the cause is like trying to fix a water leak by mopping the floor. It gives temporary relief and nothing more.
Dr. Hansa begins every hair fall consultation with a thorough assessment, examining the pattern and distribution of loss, evaluating scalp health, reviewing your hormonal and medical history, and recommending blood investigations where clinically relevant. Only after this assessment does she build your treatment plan.
Genetic pattern hair loss in men (M-shaped temporal recession) and women (diffuse thinning at the crown and parting).
Sudden widespread shedding triggered by stress, prolonged illness, high fever, post-surgical recovery, or post-pregnancy.
Low ferritin, Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, or zinc. Among the most underdiagnosed and undertreated causes of hair fall in Indian patients.
Thyroid dysfunction, PCOD, or oestrogen fluctuations during perimenopause.
Dandruff, seborrhoeic dermatitis, or fungal scalp infections causing secondary hair loss.
Autoimmune-mediated patchy hair loss requiring separate management.
PRP is one of the most evidence-backed, non-surgical treatments for hair loss available in dermatology today. The procedure uses your own blood, a small amount is drawn, processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, and the resulting platelet-rich plasma is injected into the scalp at the follicle level. The growth factors in PRP stimulate dormant follicles, improve blood supply to the scalp, and reactivate the natural hair growth cycle.
PRP is particularly effective for androgenetic alopecia and early-to-moderate pattern hair loss in both men and women. Most patients notice a reduction in shedding within the first 2-3 sessions, and visible new growth typically appears by sessions 4-6.
<p>Yes, and the evidence is substantial. Multiple peer-reviewed clinical studies have demonstrated PRP's effectiveness in reducing hair fall and stimulating regrowth, particularly in androgenetic alopecia. Results are significantly better when PRP is started before major follicle miniaturisation has occurred, which is why early intervention matters.</p>
<p>A standard PRP protocol involves 6 sessions over approximately 3 months, followed by maintenance sessions every 3-6 months. The exact number can vary based on your degree of hair loss and individual response to treatment.</p>
<p>Absolutely. PRP is equally effective for female hair loss, including post-pregnancy shedding, PCOD-related thinning, and female pattern hair loss. Dr. Hansa has extensive specific experience treating women's hair concerns at Refine Skin Clinic.</p>
<p>Most patients notice reduced daily shedding within 4-8 weeks of starting treatment. Visible new hair growth typically becomes apparent by 3-4 months. Hair regrowth is a naturally slow biological process, consistency with the full treatment plan is essential to achieving the best outcome.</p>
PRP isn't a new trend that appeared on social media last year. It's a treatment with decades of rigorous clinical evidence behind it, first used in surgical recovery and orthopaedic medicine, now established as one of the most powerful tools in dermatology for both hair restoration and skin rejuvenation.
At Refine Skin Clinic, PRP is used both as a standalone treatment and as part of combination protocols, carefully designed to amplify results for hair fall, skin texture improvement, and early ageing.
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma. Platelets are the component of your blood that drives clotting and tissue healing. They contain a high concentration of growth factors, proteins that signal your body to repair, regenerate, and build new tissue.
The PRP procedure involves three straightforward steps: a small amount of blood is drawn from your arm, it's processed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets, and the resulting PRP is then precisely injected into the target area, the scalp for hair restoration, or the skin for rejuvenation.
In the scalp, PRP growth factors stimulate dormant hair follicles, increase local blood supply, and trigger follicles from their resting phase back into active growth. In the skin, they stimulate collagen and elastin production, improve hydration, and accelerate cellular renewal.
Genetic pattern hair loss in both men and women.
Diffuse shedding following stress, illness, or post-pregnancy.
Before significant follicle miniaturisation has occurred.
When PRP is applied to the skin, most commonly in combination with microneedling, it creates a powerful skin rejuvenation effect. The growth factors penetrate the dermis and trigger a cascade of natural collagen and elastin production, resulting in measurably improved skin quality.
A standard PRP hair protocol at Refine Skin Clinic involves 6 sessions spaced 2-3 weeks apart, followed by quarterly maintenance. Most patients notice a meaningful reduction in daily shedding within 4-6 weeks, and visible new regrowth typically appears by 3-4 months.
<p>A topical numbing cream is applied 30-45 minutes before the procedure, making the treatment very comfortable. Most patients describe a mild pressure or warmth sensation during the injections, nothing that most people find difficult to manage.</p>
<p>For hair: 6 sessions over 3 months, then maintenance every 3-6 months. For skin rejuvenation: 3 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart, with maintenance every 6 months. Individual variation applies based on your specific concern and response.</p>
<p>Yes. Because PRP uses your own blood, there is absolutely no risk of allergic reaction or rejection. It is classified as an autologous treatment, fully biocompatible with your body. Side effects are minimal and limited to mild temporary swelling or redness at the injection sites.</p>
