FOR THINNING HAIR
What PRP can do for thinning hair
Denser hair
According to meta-analyses of randomized trials, PRP injected into the scalp raises hair density compared with placebo in androgenetic alopecia.
3-5 sessions
According to the Indian dermatology association’s (IADVL) expert taskforce, PRP for androgenetic alopecia needs at least three to five sessions, one month apart.
According to the same IADVL taskforce, people with Norwood-Hamilton grade II to V hair loss are the best candidates for PRP.

Months
In the trials, hair results were assessed after a course of several sessions, months after the first, not right after one session.
In Vietnam
In a 2025 study at two hospitals in Can Tho, Vietnam, in 41 men and women with androgenetic alopecia, hair density rose after three PRP sessions four weeks apart; the study had no control group.

FOR SKIN
What PRP can do for skin
6 months
In a randomized trial against saline, 6 months after one PRP injection, participants rated the PRP cheek as more improved for texture and wrinkles.

9 trials
According to a 2026 meta-analysis of nine randomized trials on skin aging, PRP, alone or added to another procedure such as laser, raised the share of satisfied patients compared with controls.

Acne scars
A 2021 meta-analysis found that adding PRP to microneedling raised the chance of clear acne-scar improvement compared with microneedling alone.

Melasma
According to a 2021 meta-analysis, PRP (platelet-rich plasma) reduced the melasma score, and patients were most satisfied when PRP was combined with Q-switched laser.

Your visit at our Ba Son clinic
Infection outbreaks after mesotherapy and after PRP microneedling have been recorded where sterile practice failed, such as rinsing devices in tap water or having no autoclave; proper infection control helps prevent them.
We use single-use needles and syringes for injection procedures. Reusable instruments that require sterilisation are cleaned and sterilised in an autoclave before reuse.

Transcript: The treatment begins by drawing a precise amount of blood from the client’s arm, strictly adhering to medical safety standards. The blood sample is then processed in a specialized centrifuge to isolate platelet-rich plasma with optimal concentrations of nutrients and growth factors. Following meticulous preparation, the doctor carefully applies the extracted PRP directly into the targeted tissue layers of the skin. This autologous nutrient source rapidly stimulates natural self-repair, encouraging cellular renewal and restoring a firm, youthful complexion from deep within.
What to expect, step by step
During a scalp session
We numb the scalp before the injections. We have several pain-control options, from a numbing cream or spray to a nerve block, and your doctor helps you choose the one that suits you at your consultation.
During a face session
In a small study of PRP with microneedling, most participants felt no or mild pain and needed no downtime.
The first days
Common side effects after scalp PRP are pain, redness, burning, swelling, minor bleeding and headache, usually short-lived; a meta-analysis recorded no serious adverse events related to PRP.
Over the months
In the trials, hair results were assessed after a course of several sessions, months after the first, not right after one session.
Our aftercare (clinic guidance)
After scalp PRP: Keep the scalp clean and avoid washing the treated area for the period advised by your doctor. Avoid strenuous exercise and heavy sweating immediately after treatment, and follow your doctor’s instructions before returning to your usual hair-care routine.
After facial PRP: Keep the treated area clean and avoid rubbing, picking or applying irritating skincare products until the skin has settled.
After fractional CO₂ with PRP: Recovery takes longer than with PRP alone. Keep the skin protected while it heals, avoid picking any crusts, and avoid makeup, swimming, saunas and strong sun exposure until your doctor says the skin is ready.
Contact the clinic if you develop increasing pain, redness or swelling, unusual discharge, persistent bleeding or any other symptoms that concern you.

I’ve been following the PRP protocol for acne scars here. After just a few initial sessions, the shallow scars have visibly filled in, and my pores are much smaller. It requires a bit of patience, but the results are definitely worth the money.
