What Is PRP, and How Does It Work for Hair Growth?
Now that you have an answer to your question, “Does PRP really help hair growth,” let’s take a look at how.

Does PRP Really Help Hair Growth? What Is the Success Rate?

The results aren’t permanent, but the good news is you’ll likely only need maintenance treatments about once a year once you achieve your ideal look.
