Hair Fall Treatment & PRP
Diagnosis-led treatment for hair thinning and hair fall, including PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy.
Hair fall has many possible causes — nutritional deficiencies, thyroid or hormonal imbalance, stress, or genetic pattern hair loss among them. Dr. Ankit Jain’s approach starts with identifying the cause through a detailed history, scalp examination, and blood investigations where needed, since the right treatment depends on knowing why the hair fall is happening.
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy is one option often used for early to moderate thinning, alongside topical or oral treatment where appropriate.
Who is this for?
Suitable for men and women experiencing excessive hair shedding, thinning, or early pattern hair loss. Dr. Jain reviews medical history, scalp condition, and where relevant, blood investigations, to identify the underlying cause before recommending treatment.
