Rules of social acceptance are erratic and change is inevitable, being adaptable is the only choice. Living a mundane life the most for granted thing you can take is thyself. Self-care is not a luxury any more, it’s becoming a necessity. Surgeries made it possible to be what you want to be saying “it’s never too late”. Of course, there is no fun in looking old. Surgical processes are now acceptable but the safety and soundness is without exception a big elephant in the room.
Medical technology has developed a surgical process known as PRP therapy. The idea is to heal the body from the body itself.
PRP for hair growth in Pakistan is stereotyped for sketchy, no result, or inadequate therapy. The common sentiment of society is provoked as many of those who have undergone the procedure feel disconsolate and disgruntled. Indeed the situation is pretty bad as this backlash is justifiable. The air needs to be cleared; the root cause for the problem is the incompetent surgeons. The true culprits are the quack medical professionals. Think of it as a tenth-grade student trying to do heart surgery. Let’s look deep into the problem.
What is PRP?
Platelets in human blood is the component used for healing purposes. Platelets Rich Plasma (PRP) is basically a substance made by separating the platelets from the blood and concentrating it. The idea of the therapy is that the PRP substance is designed in a way that when injected to the damaged tissue, stimulates the growth factors. It attracts cells that are responsible for the healing process and helps with the regrowth of tissue.
PRP is successful for a number of problems like hair loss, tendon injuries, acute injuries, post surgical repair, and osteoarthritis. Aesthetic Industry In Pakistan have also proficiently used this process in many facial surgeries.
This is not a new procedure at all; doctors have been using it efficiently for a very long time. Its application in dermatology is new. Besides being a therapy with negligible risks, if done imprecisely can have a drastic impact. People have suffered the consequences of choosing amateur surgeons, unqualified for the task.
PRP for Hair Regrowth in Pakistan
PRP therapy for hair loss in Pakistan is considered a big fraud, deceptive, and sharp practice. Being honest! The concerns are valid; people have been victimized by many snake oil salesmen. Cosmetology is a comprehensive field and aesthetic procedures require absolute knowledge and expertise for handling associated complications. Unfortunately, people are entrapped by quack surgeons who are not eligible for this sort of complicated process. Another reason why PRP is not considered befitting for hair regrowth is lack of knowledge about the process.
PRP for hair regrowth is designed to treat androgenic alopecia which is also known as pattern baldness. This therapy is ideally used to treat hair loss and hair thinning. It is not effective in “re-growing” hair follicles; it just promotes the hair growth by healing the damaged tissues. Although medical professionals were able to completely regrow the hair, a shining bald head is not considered befitting. According to a study carried in 2019, PRP therapy was considered to be more effective than Minoxidil therapy. Choosing the ideal candidate also determines the success of therapy. PRP is considered most effective for people with recent hair loss. Another key factor is the number of platelets in the blood. If the candidate has a blood-thinning problem the procedure won’t be effective.
