Platelet-rich plasma · Hair and face

PRP in Milan, hair and face

Your own platelets, up to 12 times more concentrated than standard PRP, returned to where they are needed: to the thinning follicle and to skin that is losing thickness. Prepared under an agreement with the Transfusion Service and injected by doctors at Via Sant'Andrea 21.

The KinAura difference

More platelets, every session

We prepare the plasma with a system that concentrates platelets up to 12 times more than standard PRP. More growth factors reach the tissue, and growth factors are what drive regeneration.

Transfusion Service agreement

In Italy, PRP outside hospitals can only be prepared under an agreement with a Transfusion Service. KinAura has one.

Always a doctor

From the blood sample to the injections, every step is overseen by a doctor, through to the final review.

At a glance

What PRP is

A small sample of your blood, spun to separate the plasma and concentrate the platelets. Platelets hold growth factors and vesicles that signal cells to repair. Everything comes from you: nothing foreign goes into the skin.

How it works

One plasma, two destinations

The same platelet concentrate works on the scalp and on the face. Choose an area to see what happens beneath the skin.

The follicle gets back to work

In androgenetic thinning the follicle shrinks and produces ever finer hairs as the growth phase shortens. Injected into the scalp, PRP brings growth factors to the bulb that support the papilla cells, encourage small new vessels and extend the growth phase of the hair.

Before you choose where

Not every PRP is the same

Platelet concentration and the way the plasma is prepared change what reaches the tissue. These are the questions to ask wherever you decide to be treated.

What happens, month by month

  1. Today

    The session

    Blood sample, plasma preparation and micro-injections. Then you go straight back to your day.

  2. 4 wks

    The next session

    Growth factors have started working on follicles and fibroblasts. Time for the second appointment.

  3. 3 mo

    The first signs

    Fewer hairs on the brush, firmer skin. We hold the first review.

  4. 6 mo

    The result is measured

    The hair cycle and the collagen cycle are complete: we assess density and skin quality and plan maintenance.

The areas

Where PRP works

From the scalp to the neck, the plasma goes where skin or follicles need to restart.

The KinAura protocol

From the cause to maintenance

  1. 01

    The assessment

    The doctor examines your scalp or skin and looks for the cause: deficiencies, thyroid, medicines and stress need different treatments. The consultation is free.

  2. 02

    Sample and preparation

    A small blood sample, then the plasma is separated and concentrated up to 12 times more than standard PRP.

  3. 03

    The sessions

    Micro-injections with a fine needle. For hair, three or four sessions, one every four weeks.

  4. 04

    Review and maintenance

    Reviews at three and six months, then a maintenance session usually every six months.

Before and after

What to do, what to avoid

Before the session

  • Drink water and have a light meal: it makes the blood sample easier.
  • If you take antiplatelets, anticoagulants or anti-inflammatories, tell the doctor.
  • For hair, come with a clean scalp, without hairspray or leave-in products.

After the session

  • Scalp: no shampoo for the rest of the day and no hair colour for a few days.
  • Face: mild redness and a few small bruises can last one or two days.
  • For 24 hours no intense exercise, sauna or steam room.
PRP in our plans

Quality and firmness

PRP works on tissue quality. When volume or tone are also needed, we include it in a plan with biostimulators, biorevitalisation or XERF.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask us most

If your question is not answered here, message us: our reception team will reply, and the doctor too when needed.

What is PRP?

PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. It is obtained from a small sample of your blood, spun to concentrate the platelets. Platelets carry growth factors involved in tissue repair; injected into the scalp or the face, they support the follicle and the skin.

Does PRP for hair work?

For androgenetic alopecia, meta-analyses of randomised trials show more density and less shedding than placebo. It works best when the follicle has thinned but is still alive, so in the early and middle stages of thinning.

How many PRP sessions do I need?

For hair usually three or four sessions, one every four weeks, then maintenance, which at KinAura is usually every six months. For the face the doctor sets the course according to your skin and goal.

How much does PRP cost in Milan?

At KinAura a PRP session starts from €500, for hair or face. For hair the course is three or four sessions, then maintenance every six months.

When will I see results?

For hair, the first changes are assessed after about three months and the result is measured properly at six. On the face the skin improves gradually in the weeks after the course, as new collagen forms.

What does PRP do for the face?

It works on skin quality without adding volume. In the most recent systematic review the strongest results concern skin thickness and elasticity. It is regenerative medicine: your face stays yours, only firmer and brighter.

How is KinAura PRP different from standard PRP?

We prepare PRP with a system that concentrates platelets up to 12 times more than standard PRP, so each session delivers more platelets and more growth factors to the tissue.

Who can prepare PRP in Italy?

In Italy PRP is a blood component for non-transfusion use. Outside hospitals it can only be prepared by facilities with an agreement with a Transfusion Service. KinAura has this agreement.

Does PRP hurt?

Small injections are made with a fine needle. It is well tolerated and can be eased with cooling or local anaesthetic. You go straight back to your day.

What should I do after the session?

For the scalp: no shampoo for the rest of the day and no hair colour for a few days. For the face: mild redness and a few small bruises can last one or two days. In both cases avoid intense exercise, sauna and steam room for 24 hours.

Who should not have PRP?

PRP is not suitable during pregnancy and breastfeeding, with some blood or platelet disorders, with an active infection in the area to treat, or on anticoagulants. The doctor checks this before the session.

Can it be combined with other treatments?

Yes. For hair it works well alongside the therapies the doctor prescribes for thinning. For the face we include it in plans with biorevitalisation, biostimulators and XERF when volume or firmness are also needed.

Do I need a consultation before PRP?

PRP can be booked directly. If you first want to understand the cause of thinning or the plan for your skin, the consultation is free.
