Keravive and PRP-therapy: which is more effective for scalp and hair health?


ree

 


In recent years, two procedures have gained popularity in the field of trichology and aesthetic medicine: Keravive and PRP-therapy. Both are aimed at improving the condition of the scalp, stimulating hair growth, and combating hair thinning. However, the techniques work differently, and the results and patient experience will vary. Let's take a closer look.


Principle of operation


Keravive


This is a hardware procedure developed by specialists at HydraFacial. It uses hydropeeling technology with the application of active serums rich in peptides and growth factors. The process cleanses pores and follicles, removing excess sebum, dead skin cells, and impurities. This "clean slate" allows the skin to absorb maximum nutrients.


PRP-therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma)


This is an injection technique in which the patient's own platelet-enriched blood plasma is injected into the scalp. Once in the tissue, the plasma stimulates regeneration, improves microcirculation, and triggers follicle repair processes.


Who is each procedure suitable for?


  • Keravive is indicated for dry scalp, mild forms of seborrhea, tendency to clogged pores, and as a preventive measure against hair loss. It is suitable for those who want to achieve results without injections or a recovery period.

  • PRP-therapy  is more often prescribed for severe hair loss, androgenetic alopecia, after stress or serious illnesses, when powerful tissue regeneration is required.

What to choose?


If your goal is a gentle but noticeable improvement in scalp quality, hydration, hair loss prevention, and a comfortable procedure, Keravive is the optimal choice.


If your priority is active regeneration, recovery after hair loss or medical problems, you should consider PRP therapy, especially when prescribed by a trichologist.


Many clinics offer a combined approach: a course of PRP-therapy supplemented with Keravivi to cleanse and prepare the scalp. In this case, the procedures enhance each other's effects.


Conclusion


The choice between Keravive and PRP-therapy depends on the initial condition of the scalp, goals, and personal preferences in terms of sensations. Ideally, the decision should be made after consulting with a trichologist, who will take into account your medical history, current problems, and desired results.
