PRP for Hair Loss and PRP Hair Treatment in Surbiton
PRP for hair loss is a course of small injections of your own platelet-rich plasma into the scalp. A blood sample is taken, spun in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, and the plasma is placed across the areas of the scalp where thinning is showing. It is also sold as PRP hair treatment, PRP hair therapy or platelet-rich plasma for hair. They are the same thing.
At 360 Degree Clinic in Surbiton a scalp session is £275, or £650 for a course of three. The consultation is free, and it comes first for a reason: hair loss has many different causes and PRP is not the answer to all of them.
PRP hair treatment at a glance
- What is used: your own plasma only, prepared from a blood sample on the day.
- How it is given: a series of small injections across mapped sections of the scalp.
- Session length: around 45 minutes including numbing and preparation.
- Typical course: three sessions, 4 to 6 weeks apart, then review.
- Downtime: a tender scalp for about a day. Wash your hair as normal from the next morning.
- Price: £275 a session, £650 for three.
- Also available: blood testing at the clinic, if the wider picture needs looking at first.
How PRP Hair Treatment Is Carried Out
A session runs in four stages.
- Mapping. Your practitioner marks out the areas of scalp to be treated, so the injections are spread evenly and the same ground is covered at each session.
- Blood draw. A small sample is taken from your arm, as for a routine blood test.
- Separation. The sample is spun in a centrifuge and the platelet-rich layer is drawn off. Nothing is added from outside your body.
- Injection. After numbing cream has taken effect, the plasma is placed as a series of small injections across the mapped sections.
Most people describe the injections as a brief stinging rather than a sharp pain. The scalp can feel tender for a day afterwards. You can wash your hair normally from the following morning, and we ask you to avoid saunas, steam rooms and strenuous exercise for 24 to 48 hours.
PRP is one part of our wider hair and scalp treatment service, which also includes scalp microneedling, scalp mesotherapy, exosomes for hair and Dermalux LED.
Who PRP for Hair Loss Suits
This is the part most clinics skip, and it is the part that matters most.
Hair and scalp concerns have many different underlying causes. Thinning linked to a thyroid problem, iron deficiency, a medication you are taking, a recent illness, or a scalp condition needs that cause looked at first. PRP does not address any of them, and starting a course before the cause is understood usually means spending money without getting anywhere.
So the free consultation comes first. We take a history, look at the scalp, and if we think something else needs investigating we will say so and suggest you speak to your GP. We can also arrange blood testing at the clinic if you would rather get the wider picture before committing to a course.
We would rather turn a booking away than take one that will not do what you are hoping for.
What PRP Will and Will Not Do
PRP is used as one part of a hair plan rather than as a standalone answer, and it is worth being clear about what that means before you book.
- It is not a transplant. It does not create hair where a follicle has gone.
- It is not permanent. Most people who continue with it have occasional maintenance sessions.
- It is not instant. Anything you notice tends to come months rather than weeks after starting, which is why we review at the end of a course rather than promising an outcome at the start.
- It sits alongside, rather than replaces, whatever else you may already be doing for your hair. Bring that to the consultation so we can talk about it together.
Published research on PRP for hair is ongoing and results reported in studies vary. We will talk through what is realistic for your situation at the consultation rather than quoting figures at you.

PRP for Hair Loss FAQs
PRP is widely used as part of a hair loss plan and research into it is ongoing, with reported results varying between studies. Whether it is likely to help you depends on what is causing your thinning, which is what the free consultation is for. If we think PRP is not the right route we will tell you.
Most people start with three sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart and then review. Some go on to have occasional maintenance sessions. We will not ask you to commit to a long course on day one.
At 360 Degree Clinic a single scalp session is £275 and a course of three is £650. The consultation is free.
Numbing cream is applied first. Most people describe the injections as a brief stinging rather than a sharp pain, and the scalp can feel tender for about a day afterwards.
No. It is not a one off fix and it is not a transplant. People who continue with it typically have occasional maintenance sessions after the initial course.
Any change tends to come months rather than weeks after starting a course, because PRP works through your own repair processes. That is why we review at the end of a course rather than at the start.
Yes, from the following morning. On the day itself leave the scalp alone, and avoid saunas, steam rooms and strenuous exercise for 24 to 48 hours.
PRP for hair loss is not generally available on the NHS, so it is offered privately. If your hair loss may have a medical cause, speak to your GP first, and we will often suggest exactly that at the consultation.
Yes, the beard area can be treated using the same method. It is priced at consultation from £275.
PRP is generally not suitable if you have a blood clotting disorder, take blood thinners, have a blood borne infection such as hepatitis or HIV, have certain blood cancers, or have an active infection or skin cancer in the area to be treated. We go through all of this at the free consultation.
