Thick, healthy and shiny hair is an important feature that beautifies individuals' appearance. However, many people who experience hair loss or thinning for various reasons resort to various methods to revitalize their hair beauty and regain the healthy appearance they have lost. One of these methods is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment.
What is PRP? Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a treatment method performed by injecting a serum obtained from the person's own blood into the scalp. This serum aims to revitalize hair follicles and support hair growth, thanks to the high amount of platelets it contains.
Advantages of PRP Treatment:

- Blood Collection: Some blood is taken from the patient.
