PRP & Mesotherapy

PRP and mesotherapy both are beneficial. However, both treatments differ. So their comparison is not possible.
PRP method used the patient’s plasma. Whereas, vitamins and other minerals are injected for mesotherapy.
The time per session and number of sessions are also different. For PRP, a patient requires 7-10 sessions. Whereas, 5-8 sessions suffice for mesotherapy.
Additionally, PRP takes an hour-long period or more. While mesotherapy is completed in 30 minutes.
Both options are excellent to promote healthy skin and hair. But only the recommendation of a dermatologist based on the patient’s history and needs helps determine the course of action.

Yes, PRP and mesotherapy can be prescribed in combination. The effects are incredible!
You can get the combination done both for hair and skin. However, the final word comes from the doctor who knows best about your body and skin composition for the best results.
