Hair loss can affect confidence, appearance, and everyday quality of life. Whether it is caused by androgenetic alopecia, hormonal changes, nutritional factors, stress, or other conditions, identifying the underlying cause is an important part of treatment. PRP hair treatment in Mumbai is a minimally invasive procedure that uses components of the patient’s own blood to support the hair follicles and may help improve hair density in appropriately selected patients. Dr. Niketa Sonavane at Ambrosia Aesthetics provides personalized dermatological care with a focus on evidence-based aesthetic and hair treatments.
Platelet-rich plasma, commonly called PRP, is prepared from a small sample of the patient’s blood. The blood is processed to concentrate platelets and growth factors, which are then injected into areas of the scalp affected by hair thinning.
The objective of PRP therapy is to create a supportive environment for existing hair follicles. It may help improve follicular activity, strengthen miniaturized hair, and encourage healthier hair growth. However, PRP does not work in the same way for every person, and results depend on the cause and stage of hair loss.
A dermatologist generally evaluates the scalp, pattern of hair loss, medical history, lifestyle factors, and previous treatments before recommending PRP. In some cases, blood tests or additional investigations may also be suggested to identify nutritional or hormonal contributors.

The procedure usually begins with a consultation and scalp assessment. Once PRP is considered suitable, a small quantity of blood is collected from the patient.
The blood is processed using a centrifugation technique to separate and concentrate the platelet-rich component. This prepared PRP is then carefully injected into selected areas of the scalp using fine needles.
The procedure is performed in a controlled clinical environment. The treatment area and injection points are selected according to the patient’s pattern of hair thinning and treatment requirements.
PRP is generally performed as an outpatient procedure, allowing patients to return home after the session. The exact number and frequency of sessions vary according to the severity of hair loss, treatment response, and the dermatologist’s recommendations.
One of the reasons PRP hair treatment in Mumbai is considered by patients with hair thinning is that it uses the patient’s own blood-derived platelet concentrate. Potential benefits may include:
