Combined PRP and iPRF treatment
Combined PRP and iPRF hair treatment
Combining PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and iPRF (Injectable Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is an advanced regenerative treatment based on components from the patient’s own blood. Using both allows the unique advantages of each to support follicle activity, improve the scalp environment, and encourage natural renewal.
PRP provides a high concentration of platelets and growth factors released in the early stages after injection, while iPRF, through its natural fibrin network, allows gradual, sustained release of growth factors over time.
The combined treatment may be part of a comprehensive plan for hair loss and androgenetic alopecia, according to medical assessment.

What is the combined treatment?
The treatment combines two biological products from the same blood sample:
- PRP — platelet-rich plasma containing a high concentration of growth factors that encourage follicle activity.
- iPRF — platelet-rich fibrin that also contains a natural fibrin network, white blood cells, and growth factors released gradually over time.
Combining both provides biological support in the early post-treatment period and in the weeks that follow.
Treatment benefits
- Biological treatment based on the patient’s own blood
- Combination of immediate and sustained growth factor release
- Stimulation of hair follicle activity
- Improved scalp quality
- Reduction of hair shedding
- Improved hair thickness and density
- Support for scalp renewal processes
- Short recovery time
- Can be combined with other treatments
- Treatment duration
- About 30–60 minutes
- Discomfort level
- When results appear
- Reduced shedding may appear after a few weeks, while improvements in density and quality develop gradually over 3–6 months.
- Number of treatments
- Usually a series of 3–4 treatments is recommended, depending on type of hair loss and response.
- Duration of effect
- Varies according to the cause of hair loss, treatment plan, and maintenance care.
Questions & answers
How does the treatment work?
Combining PRP and iPRF uses two complementary mechanisms.
PRP provides a high concentration of growth factors released in the early stages after injection, while iPRF creates a natural fibrin network that allows gradual, sustained release and ongoing support for scalp renewal.
The treatment may help by:
- Stimulating hair follicle activity
- Extending the active growth phase of the hair (Anagen)
- Improving blood supply to follicles
- Encouraging new blood vessel formation (angiogenesis)
- Improving scalp quality
- Reducing inflammatory processes around follicles
- Improving hair thickness and density
The goal is to create an optimal growth environment for hair follicles as part of a comprehensive plan tailored to the cause of hair loss.
Who is the treatment suitable for?
The combined treatment may suit a range of hair loss and thinning conditions, including:
- Androgenetic alopecia in men
- Androgenetic alopecia in women
- Diffuse hair thinning
- Postpartum hair loss
- Telogen effluvium (when appropriate)
- Reduced hair thickness and density
- Adjunct care after hair transplantation
- Combination with Minoxidil, Finasteride, and dutasteride
Suitability is determined after medical assessment, according to the cause of hair loss, scalp condition, and follicles.
How is the treatment performed?
Treatment begins with a simple blood draw.
The blood is centrifuged to separate components and produce platelet-rich plasma. The prepared PRP is then injected into thinning scalp areas with a series of fine injections.
The procedure usually takes 30–60 minutes, and in most cases you can return to daily routine immediately afterward.
Why combine PRP and iPRF?
Each treatment has different biological advantages. PRP provides a high concentration of growth factors released quickly, while iPRF allows more gradual, sustained release through the natural fibrin network.
When appropriate, combining both allows the benefits of both products as part of a personalized plan.
Is the treatment suitable for all types of hair loss?
No. Effectiveness depends on the cause of hair loss, follicle condition, and disease stage.
Before treatment begins, a comprehensive medical assessment is performed to tailor an individual plan.
How many treatments are needed?
In most cases a series of 3–4 sessions at intervals of several weeks is recommended. Maintenance treatments can follow according to scalp condition and progress.
When can results be seen?
Some patients notice reduced shedding within the first weeks. Improvements in density, thickness, and quality develop gradually over 3–6 months, according to the natural hair growth cycle.
Can it be combined with other treatments?
Yes. The treatment can be combined with Minoxidil, Finasteride, dutasteride, scalp mesotherapy, exosomes, laser treatments, and hair transplantation.
Combining several methods often addresses multiple mechanisms of hair loss and improves outcomes. The plan is personalized for each patient.
What are the possible side effects?
Because the treatment is based on the patient’s own blood, the risk of allergic reaction or rejection is very low.
After treatment, local, temporary effects may occur, such as:
- Redness at injection areas
- Scalp sensitivity
- Mild swelling
- Small bruises at injection points
- Mild discomfort or pressure in the scalp
In most cases you can return to routine the same day. As with any medical treatment, rarer risks also exist. Before each treatment, a medical consultation assesses suitability and fully explains benefits, risks, and possible side effects as part of informed consent.
Is the combined treatment standalone?
Combined PRP and iPRF is an important tool in hair medicine, but in most cases it is part of a comprehensive plan. Depending on the cause of hair loss, the plan may also include medication, other regenerative treatments, supplements, or addressing risk factors.
Accurate medical diagnosis is the basis for choosing the right treatment and achieving optimal long-term results.
In summary
Combining PRP and iPRF allows both immediate and sustained release of growth factors to support follicle activity, improve the scalp environment, and reduce shedding.
The combined treatment is part of a personalized plan according to medical assessment and treatment goals.
