Hello. I am considering PRP to thicken hair. I read on one chat forum there could be a link with cancers. Can anybody put my mind at rest, or should I simply avoid such treatment?

Answer: Thinking about PRP for thicker hair. Are there any associated risks? I am a 35 year old man. trupton, thanks for your question. The only risk with PRP treatment is swelling, minimal discomfort. There are no studies linking prp with cancer. It is derived from your whole blood, so it is safe because it is a autologous product.There are many benefits such as enhancing healing, reversing thinning, and accelerating the growth of a hair transplant.
