PRP hair treatment in Islamabad, regrowth from within
PRP uses your own platelet-rich plasma to stimulate the hair follicles and support natural regrowth, slowing shedding and improving density. Because it comes from your own blood, there is no risk of rejection. Every treatment is performed personally by Dr Taskeen Iqbal, a PMDC-registered Skin and Aesthetic Physician in Bahria Town, Rawalpindi.
PRP hair treatment uses a concentrated preparation of your own platelets to stimulate the hair follicles, slow shedding and support natural regrowth. A small blood sample is drawn, spun in a centrifuge to isolate the growth-factor-rich plasma, then injected into the scalp where thinning has begun.
Because the plasma comes from your own blood, there is no risk of rejection, and no allergy to the plasma itself. The growth factors signal the follicles to move into a healthier growth phase and improve the blood supply that nourishes them.
01 Who PRP hair treatment works for
PRP hair treatment has a strong evidence base and produces meaningful results for the right candidates. Patients with early to moderate androgenetic alopecia, female pattern hair loss, telogen effluvium or post-pregnancy shedding consistently show improved density and reduced shedding after a properly structured course.
Results are most significant in patients who start while their follicles are still active. The earlier treatment begins, the broader the range of follicles that can be rescued and stimulated. You will get an honest assessment of what is realistic for your specific stage and type of hair loss. Individual results vary.
PRP is not recommended if you have an active scalp infection, certain blood disorders, are taking high-dose blood thinners, are undergoing active cancer treatment, or are pregnant. Your full medical history is reviewed in consultation before any treatment begins.
02 What to expect during treatment
- Consultation. Your scalp and hair-loss pattern are assessed, and PRP is confirmed as the right approach before anything begins.
- Blood draw. A small sample is taken from your arm under sterile conditions.
- Preparation. The sample is spun in a centrifuge to isolate the growth-factor-rich plasma.
- Application. The plasma is injected into the scalp at the thinning areas, with a topical anaesthetic for comfort.
- Healing and growth. The follicles are stimulated over the following weeks and months, with density building gradually across the course.
03 Aftercare for the best results
- Avoid washing the scalp for the first 24 hours
- Avoid harsh hair products, direct sun and heavy sweating for a day or two
- Stay well hydrated and avoid alcohol for 48 hours
- Attend follow-up sessions, since results build over a structured course
Any tenderness settles quickly. You receive written aftercare instructions before you leave, and the clinic stays reachable on WhatsApp if questions come up.

PRP hair treatment, frequently asked
A topical anaesthetic is used, and most patients describe only mild discomfort during the scalp injections. The session is short and well tolerated.
PRP hair treatment works as a structured course, usually a few weeks apart, followed by periodic maintenance. The exact plan is set in consultation based on your hair-loss pattern.
Reduced shedding often comes first, with improved density building over several months. Results are most significant when treatment begins while follicles are still active. Individual results vary.
Patients with early to moderate androgenetic alopecia, female pattern hair loss, telogen effluvium or post-pregnancy shedding tend to respond well. The earlier treatment begins, the broader the range of follicles that can be rescued.
Yes. Because it uses your own blood, there is no risk of rejection, and no allergy to the plasma itself. Every treatment follows established medical protocols with strict infection control, and your history is reviewed first.
PRP is less effective once follicles are fully lost. It works best on active follicles, so earlier treatment gives the best chance. Dr Taskeen Iqbal will be honest about what is realistic for your stage of hair loss.
