Before you decide
Is it right for you?
We tell you frankly when this treatment is a good option and when we'd rather assess you first.
Ideal if…
- You feel like your hair is falling out more or looks thinner
- You prefer a treatment that uses a component from your own body
- You want a complement to your hair transplant
- You want to protect the density you still have
We assess you first if…
- You have a clotting or platelet disorder
- You're pregnant or breastfeeding
- There is an active infection on your scalp or you have a fever
- There are areas with no follicles left: for those, it's worth considering a transplant
How we do it at Quantum
A medical protocol, not a catalog
Every plan starts with a consultation: we listen to what you want to achieve, review your medical history and decide whether this treatment is right for you.
- 01
Medical consultation
Before any treatment is applied, we review your case and explain what is possible and what isn't.
- 02
D10 Facial Scanner
Everything starts with a consultation, not a catalog: we analyze your skin and scalp before recommending any treatment.
- 03
Follow-up visit
We review the result with you and adjust the plan if needed.
What it is and how it works
Scalp PRP (platelet-rich plasma)
Hair PRP starts with a small sample of your blood, which we process to concentrate the platelet-rich plasma. That concentrate is delivered into the scalp through micro-injections. Platelets provide growth factors that support follicle activity, and because it's your own material, the chance of an allergy is low.
It's an option if you notice more hair loss or thinner hair, want to protect the density you still have, or want to complement a hair transplant. Where there are no longer any follicles, what should be considered is a transplant. We rule it out if there are clotting problems or issues with your platelet count, during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or if you have a scalp infection or fever.
Each session lasts 45 to 60 minutes, and you go back to your routine the same day. Several sessions are needed, depending on your case, and changes show gradually, over months. Sessions start at $350.000.

How much does hair PRP cost?
Each session starts at $350.000 COP. We determine how many sessions you need during your consultation.
Does it hurt?
You'll feel the needle prick when the blood sample is drawn and small pricks on your scalp. It's usually well tolerated, and the discomfort goes away quickly.
How many sessions are needed?
Usually, a series of several sessions spaced apart is done, followed by maintenance. We tailor it to your diagnosis and how you progress.
How soon do results show?
Changes come gradually and are usually noticeable over the months, since they depend on the natural hair cycle.
Can it have side effects?
You may have tenderness, redness or mild swelling on your scalp, plus a small bruise where the blood was drawn.
Can it be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Depending on your consultation, it can be added to hair mesotherapy or used alongside a hair transplant.
Who can't have hair PRP?
We rule it out if you have clotting or platelet problems, during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with active infections, or with certain underlying conditions. We review this with you.
