PRP vs Mesotherapy for Hair Loss: Which Treatment Is Better?

Hair loss can affect confidence and quality of life. Fortunately, modern dermatology offers several non-surgical treatments to support hair restoration, with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and Mesotherapy being among the most popular options.
At Summerland Medical Centre in Abu Dhabi, our dermatology specialists provide personalized hair restoration treatments based on each patient’s needs.
What Is PRP Therapy?
PRP therapy uses a small sample of the patient’s blood to extract platelet-rich plasma, which is then injected into the scalp to stimulate hair follicles and encourage natural hair growth.
Benefits of PRP

- Supports hair follicle regeneration

What Is Mesotherapy?
Mesotherapy involves injecting vitamins, amino acids, minerals, and nutrients directly into the scalp to nourish hair follicles and improve scalp health.
Benefits of Mesotherapy
