Scalp Microneedling vs PRP: What's the difference?
Scalp microneedling focuses on stimulating the body’s natural healing response to improve scalp health and encourage hair growth. PRP uses your own blood-derived growth factors to target hair follicles more directly. Both can be effective, but microneedling offers a non-invasive, lower-cost option for many people.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), a common buzzword in today's aesthetic market, is create by drawing blood from the patient and spinning down the sample to create concentrated plasma (PRP) for use in the treatment. The process is completed locally in the provider's office with less sophisticated equipment and technique. PRP is only as good as the donating client and the resulting serum product contains a lower volume of cytokines, with higher inflammatory properties.
