Hair PRF works by using a concentrated portion of your own blood that contains platelets, fibrin, growth factors, and regenerative cells. These natural components are introduced into targeted areas of the scalp to support follicle function, improve circulation, and stimulate natural hair growth processes.
The treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation where a specialist evaluates your scalp and hair condition. Factors such as the pattern of hair loss, hair density, scalp health, and potential underlying causes are assessed. This allows for the creation of a personalised treatment plan tailored to your specific hair restoration goals. During the consultation, photographs may be taken to track progress throughout the treatment journey and help monitor improvements in hair growth and density over time.
A small sample of blood is drawn from your arm, similar to a routine blood test. The amount collected is typically minimal and is used to prepare the platelet-rich fibrin required for the treatment. Because Hair PRF uses your own blood components, the treatment is highly biocompatible and carries a very low risk of allergic reactions or rejection.
The blood sample is placed into a specialised centrifuge where it is spun at carefully controlled speeds. This process separates the platelet-rich fibrin from other blood components while preserving a high concentration of growth factors, fibrin matrix, and regenerative cells.
Unlike some earlier platelet-based treatments, PRF allows these growth factors to be released gradually into the scalp over time, supporting a more sustained regenerative response around the hair follicles.
Once prepared, the PRF is carefully injected into areas of the scalp affected by thinning hair or reduced density. The injections are strategically placed to target weakened or dormant hair follicles. The growth factors within the PRF help improve blood supply to the follicles, support cellular repair, and encourage healthier follicular activity. This creates a more favourable environment for existing hair while stimulating the growth cycle of dormant follicles.
Following the PRF injections, LED Light Therapy may be used to further support scalp health and optimise treatment outcomes. This non-invasive technology uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular activity within the scalp, helping improve circulation and create a healthier environment for hair follicles.
The light energy helps encourage tissue repair, supports the regenerative processes initiated by the PRF treatment, and may contribute to improved nutrient delivery to the hair follicles. Many clients find this step relaxing, and it serves as an excellent complement to regenerative hair therapies by enhancing the scalp's natural healing response.
Following treatment, the regenerative components continue working beneath the scalp's surface. Growth factors gradually stimulate follicular activity, improve scalp health, and support stronger hair production. Over the following weeks and months, many clients notice reduced shedding, stronger hair strands, improved hair quality, and increased density. Results develop progressively as the natural hair growth cycle responds to the regenerative treatment.
Result:

Hair PRF contains a fibrin matrix and a higher concentration of regenerative components that are released gradually over time, supporting a prolonged healing response.
Hair growth improvements typically develop gradually over several months, as hair follicles respond to the regenerative process and progress through natural growth cycles.
Yes. Hair PRF is commonly used for both male and female hair thinning and can be tailored to different hair loss patterns.
Most clients return to normal activities shortly after treatment, although mild scalp sensitivity may occur temporarily.
Hair PRF is not a replacement for a hair transplant in advanced hair loss cases. However, it may help improve hair density and support existing follicles in suitable candidates.
The number of sessions varies depending on the extent of hair loss, hair quality, and individual treatment goals.
Safety Reassurance
Hair PRF is a minimally invasive regenerative treatment that uses your body's own biological components. Because the treatment relies on natural growth factors derived from your blood, the risk of allergic reactions is minimal. At Este Medical, the treatments are performed by trained professionals using carefully controlled protocols to ensure safety and comfort.
