PRP Therapy for Hair in Basingstoke
If you’ve noticed thinning hair, more shedding than usual, or just want to support a healthier, fuller-looking scalp, PRP therapy for hair could be the gentle and natural boost you’re looking for. At Hampshire Dental Care, we use PRP PURE, a leading PRP‑therapy supply, to deliver treatments that harness your body’s own regenerative power.
Many people already know that PRP is effective for toning and repairing skin, but when it comes to hair, the goal is a little different: rather than smoothing lines, we’re stimulating follicles, reducing thinning and supporting regrowth. Whether you’re experiencing early hair loss or have more advanced concerns, we listen first, diagnose carefully and tailor treatment accordingly.
What Is PRP Hair Loss Therapy?
PRP stands for Platelet‑Rich Plasma, a concentration of your own blood enriched with platelets, growth factors, and proteins that encourage cell repair and regeneration. In the case of PRP hair loss therapy, the PRP is injected into areas of your scalp where hair follicles are weak or thinning – helping to:
- Stimulate dormant follicles to enter an active growth phase
- Improve thickness and density of existing hair
- Slow or reduce the rate of hair loss
Since the material is your own blood, risk of allergic reaction is extremely low, and downtime is minimal.
What to Expect in Your PRP Hair Session
Here’s what you can expect:
Consultation & Assessment
We examine your scalp, assess the pattern of hair loss, ask about medical history (e.g. medications, conditions affecting healing), and determine how many sessions are likely to be beneficial.
Blood Draw & Processing
A small sample of your blood is taken, then processed (centrifuged) to isolate the platelet‑rich layer.
Injection
The PRP is carefully injected into targeted areas of the scalp. The process takes around 30‑45 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
Aftercare & Follow‑Up
You may notice mild redness, tenderness or slight swelling. We’ll advise you on aftercare, and schedule follow‑up sessions if needed. PRP hair loss therapy usually requires multiple sessions for optimal results, with occasional maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does PRP therapy for hair really work?
Yes, many studies and clinical experiences show that PRP therapy can stimulate hair follicles, increase hair density, reduce shedding and improve thickness – especially when used early and in multiple sessions. Results vary between individuals.
How many sessions of PRP for hair loss are needed?
Typically 3‑4 sessions spaced several weeks apart are recommended to see noticeable improvement. After that, maintenance (1‑2 sessions per year) is often advised to sustain results.
What is the PRP therapy hair cost at your clinic?
Each single session with PRP PURE at Hampshire Dental Care is £200. The total cost depends on how many sessions you book (initial course + maintenance).
Is there any downtime?
Very little. You may experience mild redness, tenderness or minor swelling in treated areas for a day or two. Most people return to their normal activities almost immediately.
Is it painful?
Discomfort is minimal. The injections use fine needles, and the process is designed to be as comfortable as possible. Numbing cream can be offered if needed.
Can PRP for hair be combined with other treatments?
Yes. For some patients, combining PRP with treatments like microneedling, topical medications or lifestyle changes (diet, stress management) offers better or faster results.
Do you do PRP therapy for the face as well?
Yes. We also offer facial PRP therapy for skin rejuvenation – reducing fine lines, improving texture, tone and glow. If you’re interested, we can discuss combining face and scalp treatments in the same treatment plan.
