Surgery moves hair you still have. It does nothing for the hair you are
losing, which is a separate problem with separate treatment.
PRP returns your own platelet concentrate to the scalp to support follicle
recovery and hair calibre. MTS opens controlled micro-channels so a growth ampoule
reaches follicle level instead of sitting on the skin. They are commonly given together, and the
clinic prices that combination as one session.
Both are courses, not visits. MTS works cumulatively at one- to two-week
intervals; PRP runs at three to four. A course attended irregularly is the usual reason treatment
is judged not to have worked.
Every programme opens with the scalp itself — massage and scaling first,
then the active treatment, then regenerative scalp laser in the same visit. Low-level laser therapy
also runs through the whole post-operative year, settling inflammation early and supporting regrowth
later.
Diagnosis comes first. More than a hundred hairs shed a day, a scalp that runs
hot or red, hair that tangles and pulls out easily, sudden itching or inflammation — these are
checked against your general health rather than in isolation, and where the honest answer is that
surgery is the wrong route, that is what is said.
