Hair loss can affect both men and women and may occur because of genetics, hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies, stress, ageing, or certain scalp conditions. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy has emerged as a minimally invasive option for people looking to support hair growth and improve scalp health. If you are researching PRP in South Mumbai, understanding how the procedure works, who may benefit from it, and what to expect from treatment can help you make an informed decision. At Viva Aesthetic Clinic, Dr. Deepam Shah provides personalized dermatological and aesthetic care based on individual hair and scalp concerns.
