PRP hair loss

The Hair Shot is a treatment method for hair loss using the body’s own blood. Important healing and growth factors are extracted from this blood in high concentrations and then injected into the client’s scalp.

The hair roots are supplied with nutrients such as oxygen, vitamins, proteins and trace elements via the blood. If this is no longer the case, the hair can no longer grow healthily and falls out.

The Hair Shot is composed exclusively of active ingredients that we have extracted from your body’s own blood. This makes the treatment a natural procedure based on special technical applications. By centrifuging the blood, its liquid and solid components are separated from each other. The liquid components (blood plasma), known as PRP, are then injected into the scalp without any further additives.

We use an innovative process to extract platelet-rich plasma from our customers’ blood. The so-called PRP contains a highly concentrated composition of healing and regenerating active ingredients. We make use of this and inject it specifically into the scalp. Once the autologous blood has been injected, it will develop its regenerative effect over the next few weeks and stimulate hair growth again.

In both men and women, hair loss is hereditary in 95% of cases. In women, this form of hair loss leads to thin, sensitive hair with irregular thinning and loss in the area of the top of the head and middle parting. Men have to contend with receding hairlines and baldness. As hair transplants or chemical hormone blockades often involve too great a risk for the customer due to the extensive side effects, the Hair Shot offers the best way to counteract hair loss. However, for customers who have already undergone a hair transplant, PRP offers additional overall support for hair growth. The Hair Shot also achieves good results for customers who want to stop taking finasteride, for example.

The Hair Shot is a very safe method. Only the body’s own blood is used for injections without any additives. Therefore, allergic reactions or other intolerance reactions are excluded. We use certified, sterile disposable material for preparation.

To date, no lasting side effects have been reported for the hair shot, which means that the injection has established itself as a very safe method. In rare cases, small hematomas, redness or swelling around the injection site may occur temporarily.

As the Hair Shot is purely the body’s own material, the injection can usually be repeated as often as required. However, there should be an interval of around 4 – 6 weeks between treatments.

Of course, the individual durability of the treatment depends on the personal circumstances of the customer. Experience has shown that our customers can enjoy the positive effects for around two years.

The effect of PRP is now widely known, so that various centers throughout Europe are involved in this treatment. To effectively combat hair loss, you should consult an experienced specialist who has been carrying out autologous blood treatments for many years.

The treatment takes about half an hour and is carried out on an outpatient basis at our prevention center in Zurich. No special pre- or post-treatment is required. We will take enough time for you beforehand to clarify all your questions and examine your symptoms. In the next step, a small amount of blood is taken, which we prepare using a special technical process in order to obtain the effective PRP. We then inject this into the scalp.

Immediately after PRP hair loss treatment, our clients generally feel very good. There may be short-term, slight swelling in the treatment area with possibly increased sensitivity, which can last for a few days.

Once you have received the hair shot, you can usually return to work or exercise immediately. However, you can only go to the swimming pool or sauna the next day.

A personal follow-up check in our clinic is not necessary. However, we are interested in how you feel after the treatment and how effective the injections are for you. We will therefore arrange a telephone appointment after around eight weeks, during which you can tell us how you feel after the PRP hair loss treatment.

Treatment with the Hair Shot costs CHF 500 per session in our clinic. In addition to the injection, the price also includes the cost of the consultation and a follow-up check.
