What is plasma lifting for hair?

Every person wants to have thick, beautiful and healthy hair. Well-groomed curls attract attention. Unfortunately, not everyone is naturally blessed with beautiful hair, and some have lost it due to aggressive external factors and health problems.

What to do?

Is your hair far from ideal and your scalp damaged?

There is an exit! This is plasma lifting for hair.

This procedure can be recommended to anyone who wants their hair to look perfect and healthy, and who cares about the health of their scalp.

Plasmolifting for hair (scalp) is a technique aimed at restoring hair by providing the hair follicles with plasma components. They are the ones who can nourish and enrich hair. Damaged, impoverished skin tissues are enriched and nourished by active blood flows, activating the processes of rejuvenation, natural restoration and healing. Plasmolifting of hair can become an impetus for the launch of hidden rejuvenation processes in the body.

Indications and contraindications for the procedure

Plasmolifting is prescribed for problems of the scalp such as:

  1. Marked reduction in hair density. Excessive hair loss is the most common reason for seeking help from specialists.
  2. Hair thinning and fragility. This hair problem can arise due to both external aggressive influences and internal pathologies.
  3. Excessive oiliness of the hair and parts of the scalp in the root zone.
  4. Itchy head.

Plasmolifting is not performed if:

  1. External damage to the scalp.
  2. Skin pathologies.
  3. Low concentration of platelets in the blood.
  4. Neoplasms.
  5. Autoimmune pathologies.
  6. Pregnancy and breastfeeding.
  7. Menses.

Plasmolifting is not prescribed if the patient is taking medications to reduce blood clotting.

The procedure is not performed for a number of other pathological conditions.

Important! Plasmolifting is prescribed exclusively by a doctor! If there are contraindications and you can stop hair loss, improve the condition of the hair and epidermis of the head in other ways, use them.

Reviews

“Plasmolifting is an effective procedure for hair loss, but it is not easy to endure - the pain is simply terrible. The head is not rubbed with any anesthetic, and injections along the growth line of the strands and near the temples are especially sensitive. I was prescribed 4 sessions, and before each subsequent one I prepared myself for a visit to the salon for 2-3 days.

But all the pain is forgotten after the results become noticeable. In my case, this means a decrease in the amount of hair falling out, a decrease in fragility, the disappearance of dandruff and the appearance of “undercoat” - new small hairs. In principle, I was satisfied with the course of treatment, despite the fact that it was quite expensive and unpleasant. But I don’t know whether I’ll decide to do it again” - POLINA, MOSCOW.

“Long-term breastfeeding resulted in thinning and increased hair loss for me. The problem had to be solved radically, and I chose plasma lifting.

The painful sensations were quite tolerable, but after the session my head hurt for almost a day. I washed my hair on the third day and it was already noticeable that there was much less hair falling out during washing.

My course consisted of 4 procedures, after which the trichologist said that the hair had become stronger, and new vegetation had appeared in the thinning areas. Yes, I myself see that my hairstyle has begun to look much better” - MASHA, ST. PETERSBURG.

“Last year in the spring I started having terrible hair loss. I didn’t want to be bald at all, so on the advice of a trichologist I signed up for plasma lifting. After taking blood for tests, the day of the procedure was scheduled.

First, they took blood from a vein to obtain plasma and after 15 minutes they invited me into the office. Of course, I suspected that the sensations would not be the most pleasant, but the pain was sometimes so unbearable that I wanted to push the doctor away and run away from the office.

But still, I managed to endure this torture to the end, I came home on autopilot and literally spent the rest of the day coming to my senses.

The next day, when I woke up in the morning, I decided that I would not go to the clinic again. But by the second procedure, the painful sensations had already been forgotten, and it was thought that the skin would get used to it and would not react like that, so I ended up in the clinic again.

Alas, I experienced the full severity of the pain again, and as a result, instead of the prescribed sessions, I only did two. There are results - the hair has become softer, more vibrant, thicker, that is, plasma lifting works. But this is not my procedure, so they will look for other methods of treatment” - INGA, MOSCOW.

“I have diffuse hair loss, the cause of which could not be determined by a full examination of the body. Therefore, I choose methods and methods for strengthening follicles and increasing the density of strands empirically.

The last experiment was plasma lifting. The trichologist prescribed 10 sessions, which needed to be alternated with mesotherapy. But I couldn’t stand them all - the injections were very painful, but there was no result - my hair kept falling out. We’ll probably have to look more deeply into the causes of the disease” – GALINA, SAMARA.

The principle of operation of the procedure for the epidermis of the head

Blood platelets contain a large number of protein compounds that are responsible for growth processes, skin healing and cell renewal. Once platelets are pumped, they release proteins and their derivatives into the area under the skin. This causes cells to actively multiply. Natural processes of tissue regeneration are launched, their natural rejuvenation is stimulated. At the same time, the synthesis of hyaluronic acid and collagen is provoked, and harmful bacteria that are present on the scalp are suppressed.

Treatment of the scalp helps stop the death of hair follicles, improves the structure of the hair, and thickens it. The bulbs receive the necessary nutrition. As a result, hair growth accelerates and its quality improves.

Other Hair Treatments

You can restore the health of your hair and scalp not only with plasma lifting, but also with other methods.

  • Mesotherapy is the introduction into the scalp of a mixture of vitamins and other components that accelerate hair growth and get rid of dandruff. This procedure is suitable for those who are afraid of needles and injections, since there is also non-injection mesotherapy - exposure to electric current, ultrasound, laser or cold.
  • Regenera Activa's technology for the treatment of alopecia is based on the use of cells from one's own hair follicles. The drug is prepared immediately before the procedure and is immediately injected into the bald areas of the scalp. The procedure will help with age-related hair loss. The use of Regenera Activa technology is unacceptable if the patient has thyroid disease.
  • The ACR method is very similar to plasma lifting; not only the patient’s blood plasma is used, but also other blood components - fibrin and thrombin.

Advantages and disadvantages of exposure to the scalp

The plasma lifting procedure for hair has the following advantages:

  1. Safety. Treatment of the scalp does not harm individual organs and systems of the body. This is due to the fact that the blood entering the skin during the session belongs to the patient himself. The components are not rejected. Even a long course of procedures does not threaten the body with infection, rejection of the injected component, or other problems.
  2. There is no risk of an allergy to the blood product injected into a part of the head.
  3. Minimum rehabilitation period. Patients feel great after the session. There are no areas of inflammation or irritation on the skin.

The disadvantages of this method for restoring hair and preventing hair loss include:

  1. Intervention in internal tissues. Like any cosmetic procedure, plasma lifting has some contraindications.
  2. Available only with a doctor's prescription. This is due to the fact that the procedure is therapeutic and affects not only the hair, but also the epidermis on the head.
  3. High price. Plasmolifting is a fairly expensive procedure. Its price varies depending on a number of factors, but cannot be low. At the same time, we adhere to a loyal pricing policy and try to ensure that the prices for skin treatment courses are optimal for our patients.
  4. Need for other procedures. Often, such therapy alone is not enough to stop hair loss and eliminate other problems.

Important! You can reduce all the risks of the technique and restore your hair if you turn to professionals!

Plasma therapy or mesotherapy – what to choose?

Both methods are similar - improving the condition of the skin and hair involves injecting certain drugs. The difference lies in their composition - with plasma therapy it is only autoplasma, with mesotherapy it is medicinal cocktails consisting of several components.

This is what determines the difference between the methods:

  • Plasma therapy almost never leads to allergic reactions, since the patient’s own biological fluid is taken for injection under the skin. Exceptions are those cases in which contraindications to the procedure are not fully established or in the course of its implementation the main stages are not followed;
  • With mesotherapy, it is difficult to predict how the body will react to chemical components. Even the most harmless component of the product used can cause an allergy;
  • Mesotherapy gives an almost immediate effect, but tissue resources are quickly depleted, so mesotherapy courses must be repeated 1-2 times a year;
  • The effect of plasma therapy begins to please the 3-4th session, but this technique is distinguished by long-term results.

The choice of a method for restoring the strength and structure of hair should be entrusted to a competent trichologist. It must be remembered that even the safest treatment methods can lead to the opposite result if they are chosen incorrectly.

Preparation for the procedure

The procedure requires simple preparation. Before hair therapy, a general blood test is prescribed to determine the general condition of the body and exclude the presence of contraindications. The analysis is performed no earlier than 3-4 weeks before the procedure. The trichologist must examine the surface of the head with the skin for the integrity of the epithelium.

Sessions are performed on an empty stomach. Two days before the procedure to restore and prevent hair loss, the patient is recommended to drink plenty of fluids and special nutrition.

The following should be excluded from the diet:

  • salty dishes;
  • fatty and spicy foods;
  • alcohol.

Carrying out the procedure

Therapy of the epidermis of the head involves the following stages:

  1. Preparation. First, blood is collected and processed in a centrifuge. This allows the plasma to be isolated. Problem areas on the surface of the head are treated with an antiseptic to prevent infection. The resulting plasma composition is evenly distributed into several syringes.
  2. Injections into the head. The injections are given with very thin needles. Gradually move from the frontal part to the occipital region. The needle is inserted to a depth of no more than 1 mm from the surface of the head. The parietal area of ​​the head is processed last.

Important! To work with the head, only disposable tools are used. Sterility is maintained!

Immediately after the session the patient can go home. In this case, the treated part does not need to be masked.

Equipment used

Plasmolifting is a procedure that requires special equipment. Its effectiveness and safety are determined by the quality of the devices and instruments used, the qualifications and experience of the doctor.

Device for plasma lifting

The essence of the procedure is to treat the scalp with its own plasma. To obtain it, you need a special device - a centrifuge. Blood placed in this apparatus is subjected to centrifugal force, resulting in the separation of platelet plasma.

Centrifuges used in plasma therapy have certain requirements:

  • Ideal separation of platelet-rich plasma is only possible if the device rotates at least 5 thousand revolutions per minute;
  • Centrifugal force acceleration – from 1100 to 1500 g);
  • Step by step increase in rotation speed no higher than 100 rpm.

The centrifuge used should operate smoothly, without jerking - this ensures the integrity of the tubes.

Test tubes

Test tubes for separating plasma from blood are made of glass with high heat-resistant properties - borosilicate glass. They are immediately filled with a gel with anticoagulating components (heparin or fraxiparin).

The gel is necessary to preserve the physiological hormonal, amino acid and vitamin composition of plasma after centrifugation.

Test tubes for plasma therapy must be durable and sealed, that is, they can, if necessary, be turned over, placed on horizontal surfaces, or shaken without the risk of mixing the resulting plasma with other blood fractions.

Certain requirements are also imposed on the gel - it must maintain the quality of plasma when frozen to minus 90 degrees.

IMPORTANT: Conventional test tubes used in laboratories are not suitable for plasma lifting. The gel included in their composition has an insufficient degree of purification, so their use in plasma therapy increases the risk of developing allergic reactions to anticoagulants.

Needles

In addition to a centrifuge and test tubes, needles are used at the blood collection stage. These are either special double-sided needles or butterfly needles.

The sharp and oblique cut of the needles ensures quick and almost painless puncture of the skin. Butterfly needles are equipped with a latex-free catheter, which reduces the risk of developing allergies.

To directly introduce purified plasma into the scalp, thin needles are used to make micropunctures of tissue.

Injections of autoplasma are often carried out using a medical syringe with removable needles.

Possible complications

Complications after a properly performed session are quite rare.

However, patients may experience symptoms such as:

  • swelling;
  • redness on the head;
  • itching;
  • exacerbation of chronic diseases.

Usually all complications disappear after a few days, and sometimes even hours. There is no irritation or inflammation left on the head.

Important! If the patient experiences severe complications, it is necessary to consult a doctor as soon as possible. The reason for visiting a specialist may be severe irritation on the head, increased body temperature, pain, nausea, etc.

Forecast

The effectiveness of the procedure is determined by the clinical condition of the problem and the anatomical features of the structure of the hair follicle. If it is naturally weak, then you should not count on global results, but after several sessions the hair will become thicker and shinier. The effect of the manipulations is long-lasting.

Care after the plasma lifting procedure is quite simple.

To consolidate the result obtained, you must:

  1. Use vitamin cocktails for hair.
  2. Regularly make therapeutic masks, use balms and other care products.
  3. Use only high-quality products for cleansing that match your hair type.
  4. Avoid exposing your hair to high and low temperatures.

Select the optimal temperature for the air supply from the hairdryer, try to limit the use of irons, and do not leave the house in the cold season without a hat or other headgear. If you suffer from hair loss, ask your doctor to find other methods for you to eliminate the problem.

Service cost

In Moscow and the Moscow region, 1 session of plasma lifting costs starting from 4 thousand rubles. In most beauty salons, the price of one procedure is 6-6.5 thousand. It must be taken into account that most often the course consists of at least three sessions, which means its cost will be in the range of 15-20 thousand.
