Nowadays customizing the eyebrow to meet the face type is really getting high these days. But after years of arching the eyebrows or due to some illness or some other diseases the growth of hair in the area decreases giving an empty look on the face.

Eyebrow transplant is a technique involving extracting hair from the scalp and implanting it in the eyebrow to restore thinning or lost eyebrow hair. This procedure is a long term treatment option solves the problem without resorting to stop-gap measures and implanted hair grows normally and will grow just like natural eyebrows. We at Hair and Skin Factory promise to give you the desired and natural looking eyebrows with variety of eyebrow replacement options.

How is an Eyebrow Transplant done :

The procedure is designed in a way to restore the missing, under going, excessive plucking, illness, thyroid, or any other reasons. In this process, the hair follicles are extracted from the donor area from the back of the scalp just like a normal hair transplant procedure. The donor area may also be from the other eyebrow if the partial eyebrow hair loss involving only one eyebrow.

The extraction of the hair follicles for eyebrow transplantation is done through FUE technique, typically from the scalps, legs, pubic region and armpit areas. For the scalp hair region, the follicles are taken from the neck or sides due to its soft texture. It is also important to follow the angle and direction of the naturally occurring eyebrows when implanting them on the eyebrow skin. Typically 50 to 500 hair follicles will be required depending upon the existing hair and density desired of the eyebrows.

The delicate procedure requires accurate placement of hair to very smallest incisions to minimize any scarring or damage to existing hair. The entire process is completely pain free and a little swelling may appear after the completion of the process and recovery time is quite low. After around two weeks, the new hair implanted will initially fall out and re-grow in three to four months. To keep the eyebrows perfectly manicured they need to be trimmed monthly.

Healing process and aftercare of eyebrow hair transplant :

After the process, small crusts are formed at the donor area which will automatically fall of eventually in a few days. Caution and care should be taken when taking showers for the first 5 days after surgery. Do not force or rub eyebrows with towel the first 20 days.

Results of eyebrow hair transplant :

Platelet Rich Plasma Treatment - Hair and Skin Factory

PRP Therapy Overview

Our blood is made up of red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma. Plasma, is the fluid part of the blood which suspends and carries blood cells and nutrients throughout the body. Platelets are tiny cells in the blood which rush to any site of injury, when bleeding occurs, to plug and form a clot and repair the damage. Platelets are also known to be a reservoir of growth factors that stimulate tissue recovery by increasing blood flow and cytokines. They are known to be responsible for stimulating and enhancing hair follicle function.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is processed blood plasma, a concentration of plasma with platelets from which red blood cells and white blood cells are removed. This concentration of PRP taken from the patient’s own blood is injected into the scalp to promote hair growth. The scalp is that the skin that covers the top part of your head. 

Am I eligible for Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy?

You are eligible for PRP therapy if: 

• you are not completely bald and have low-density hair
• you do not smoke heavily or drink alcohol frequently
• you do not indulge in drugs usage
• you do not take blood thinners
• you do not suffer from medical conditions such as chronic skin or liver disease, cancer, metabolic disorders, blood disorders such as platelet dysfunction syndrome, thrombocytopenia, hypofibrinogenemia, hemodynamic instability

The procedure of PRP Therapy for Hair

At the outset, the doctor will discuss at length with you about your medical history, including your family history, your nutrition, medications you take (including vitamins), your hair care regimen, recent surgeries and a detailed history of your hair loss situation. The doctor will also perform a general physical examination. Depending on your medical condition, you may have to undergo certain medical tests, such as blood tests, or a scalp biopsy to determine your eligibility for PRP hair therapy.

 Once you are okayed for PRP hair therapy, you will be given certain guidelines to follow, before the actual procedure.

Prior to each session of the therapy, approximately 30 ml or 60 ml of blood will be drawn from you depending on the size of the area to be treated. 

Extraction of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) from the blood

Our blood contains:

• White Blood Corpuscles (WBCs) - involved in protecting the body against infectious diseases and foreign invaders
• Red Blood Cells (RBCs) - which carry oxygen to different parts of the body
• Platelets - involved in clotting and repairing injuries
• Plasma - fluid which carries nutrients and vitamins throughout the body.

The blood drawn from your system, before each session, is spun in a centrifuge, a machine used by scientists to isolate the solids from the liquids in any solution. Due to the centrifugal force, the blood spins very rapidly in the centrifuge causing the heaviest particles in the blood, i.e., the red blood cells to fall to the bottom of the vial. Sitting just above the layer of red blood cells are the white blood cells and platelets with plasma. Atop this layer, rests a clear solution of blood plasma. 

The clear blood plasma or the platelet-poor plasma (PPP) is removed. Next, again through centrifuging, the white blood cells are separated from the platelet-rich plasma (PRP).

 The platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is what is used for the therapy.

 Typically, 8 ml - 12 ml of injectable PRP is considered as the optimum volume for injecting into the scalp. 

The PRP Procedure

• The doctor marks out the area on your scalp where hair needs to be restored.
• The marked area on your head is anesthetized using a local anesthesia.
• A disinfectant is applied on the area which is to be treated.
• The PRP is injected into the deeper layers of your scalp.
• The site is then cleaned thoroughly.

Most of the doctors also perform a procedure called micro needling along with PRP Hair Therapy. 

A derma roller, or mesogun, or an insulin syringe is used to create micro holes on the scalp.
These controlled micro-injuries to the scalp skin triggers the skin’s repair process by making it naturally produce collagen and elastin, thereby creating an ideal environment for your own natural hair to regrow. The microchannels created by the injuries aid the quick absorption of the injected Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and other topical products used on the scalp. The injuries induce the platelets to release growth factors at the injury site, and “awaken” dormant hair follicles to begin the production of new hair. 

Are there any risks or side effects of  Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy for hair?

You may experience tenderness and soreness, minimal pain, and pinpoint bleeding in the areas where injections were delivered. You may also experience a feeling of ‘tightness’ on your scalp for a day after the procedure. A few patients also complain of a headache for a day post the procedure.

What are the advantages of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy for hair? 

The advantages of PRP therapy for hair include:

• Very minimal side-effects limited to soreness and redness of skin for a day or two.
• Very less recovery time. The patient can continue with his/her daily tasks right after the procedure.
• Minimally invasive procedure requiring only the injections.
• The treatment process is quick and is usually over within 60 mins to 90 mins.

How many sessions of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)  therapy for hair are required to produce desired results?

The effects of a full round of PRP treatment (which may consist of one to eight sessions) may last up to 12 months. Therefore, the procedure can be repeated every year or even before that time without any side effects.

How long will it take to recover from Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)  therapy for hair? 

There is hardly any downtime after a PRP hair procedure. The patient can get back to his/her regular routine right after the procedure.

Are there any pre and post-treatment guidelines for Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)  therapy for hair?

Pre-Procedure Guidelines

• You need to avoid smoking and drinking alcohol and also stop using hair products at least three days before the procedure.  
• Wash your hair the morning of the PRP session or the day before the PRP session.

Post-Procedure Guidelines

• Post the procedure (a day or two after) you may be advised to shampoo your hair.
• You need to avoid certain medications, especially anti-inflammatory medications, for at least 3 - 7 days after the procedure as anti-inflammatory medications prevent inflammation, which is essentially required for the platelets to perform their function of stimulating hair growth.
• Avoid smoking and drinking alcohol, as these habits can interfere with the healing process.
• Avoid venturing out in direct sunlight. Wear a hat to protect your scalp from direct sun rays.
• If you wish to color your hair, you can do so after 3 days of the procedure.

Are the results of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy for hair permanent? 

A full round of PRP hair therapy (which can consist of 3 to 4 sessions) can make your hair thick, increase hair growth, and arrest hair loss for sometime. However, the treatment needs to be repeated yearly for maintaining good results.
