Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP therapy is a natural way to encourage hair growth using your own body’s resources. It starts with a small blood sample, which is processed to collect platelets packed with growth factors. These are then gently injected into your scalp, where they boost blood flow to the hair follicles and help thicken your hair over time.
To get the best results, we combine PRP with Acell Extra Cellular Matrix (ECM), a special protein that supports tissue healing and provides a foundation for new hair to grow. This combo gives your stem cells the perfect environment to kickstart hair growth.
PRP has been used safely for decades, and it’s a simple, non-invasive way to help your hair look fuller and healthier. At IK Clinics, we’ve fine-tuned the process to make sure you get the most from your treatment.
Since it uses your own body’s healing powers, PRP therapy is a gentle, effective option if you’re looking to boost your hair’s thickness naturally.

Boost Your Hair Thickness Naturally At IK Clinics
At IK Clinics, we offer both Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet Rich Factor (PRF) therapies to help with hair loss. Plasma therapy is a well-proven treatment that can help regenerate thinning hair and promote healthy hair growth for both men and women.
PRP therapy uses your own plasma (a part of your blood) and natural growth factors to target areas where you’re experiencing hair loss. It’s a great option for encouraging thicker hair growth, treating alopecia, and even supporting the growth of transplanted hair after a hair transplant procedure.
PRP therapy is a simple, three-step process. Most people need about three treatments, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, to see the best results.
- First, we take a small sample of blood from your arm, just like a regular blood test. Then, we place it in a special machine that spins quickly to separate the different parts of your blood.
- After about 10 minutes, your blood divides into three layers: Platelet-Poor Plasma; Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP); and Red Blood Cells
- We then take the platelet-rich plasma, put it into a syringe, and gently inject it into the areas of your scalp that need a little boost to encourage hair growth.

Frequently Asked Questions
To help you prepare for your up coming treatment, we have put together answers to common questions. If your question is not in the list, call us on +44 (116) 2707388 or drop us an email on info@ikclinics.com
Only at IK Clinics you can have a hair transplant without the need to shave your hair with the technique of U-FUE (or Undetectable FUE) in which there is no need for the patient to shave any part of his head prior to the procedure.
It is an outstanding innovation in the field of hair restoration. This technique is performed by only a handful of surgeons worldwide and is very advanced in terms of the skill.
Unfortunately no! No, you cannot have donor hair donated by your best friend. That would be nice, but your body would reject the follicles just as if he were donating a kidney. We can only transplant a person’s own hair.
It is important to stress that there is no such thing as “scarless hair transplant surgery”. However a great benefit of the FUE hair transplant technique is that any scarring is minimal. Whereas the FUT technique leaves a long scar, an FUE transplant performed by a reputable surgeon leaves only a series of tiny dots on the scalp, which should be scarcely noticeable. Also, the extent of scarring can depend on a person’s skin type and healing ability.
At IK Clinics, we advise our patients, to spray their newly transplanted hairs for the first 3 days with a saline spray that we will provide you. You can usually start washing your hair from fourth day after your hair transplant.
Most of our patients can start gym 7 day after a DHI hair transplant at IK Clinics. However, we suggest that you avoid contact sports like sparring for 14 days after an FUE hair transplant.
Since each individual is different and their skin heals at different rates. Some people may have an oily or flaky scalp prone to spots. We suggest that you avoid putting any products in your hair until your follow up appointment with your surgeon which will be 7-9 days after your hair transplant surgery.
Most people can have a hair cut 7-10 days after an FUE procedure at IK Clinics. Advise your hair dresser to use clippers at the back but scissors on the top.
Since IK Clinics specialise in non shave direct hair implantation, half of our patients are women.
