Discover how to transform your plasma into a true hair elixir with simple habits. Your lifestyle directly influences the effectiveness of your PRP treatment.

You’ve taken the leap. You’ve chosen PRP to achieve fuller, healthier hair. But did you know that the effectiveness of your treatment largely depends... on you?

Your plasma isn't just a simple liquid. It's a direct reflection of your lifestyle, habits, and diet. This reality is something few clinics dare to frankly discuss.

Today, we reveal how to make your blood the most powerful ally for your hair.

Your plasma, a mirror of your lifestyle

The truth no one tells you

Here's a fascinating scientific reality: your platelets act like little hair coaches. Give them the best fuel, and they can work wonders on your hair. Neglect them, and even the most advanced PRP technique won't be able to compensate.

The problem? Many believe PRP works the same for everyone. It's false.

The reality? A patient who smokes, eats poorly, and is highly stressed will have plasma up to 50% less effective than someone with an optimal lifestyle.

How does the plasma-effectiveness equation work?

Your plasma contains:

  • Growth factors (PDGF, VEGF, TGF-β)

  • Essential vitamins and minerals

  • Repair proteins

  • Anti-inflammatory cytokines

The healthier your lifestyle, the more concentrated and active these elements are. The more active they are, the better your follicles respond to the treatment.

The basics of PRP optimization

Nutrition: fuel for your growth factors

PRP superfoods

Quality proteins (1.2g/kg of body weight/day):

  • Salmon and fatty fish rich in omega-3

  • Organic eggs (complete source of amino acids)

  • Legumes (lentils, quinoa)

  • Grain-fed poultry

Why? Proteins provide the amino acids needed for keratin synthesis and optimize the production of platelet growth factors.

Powerful antioxidants:

  • Berries (blueberries, goji, açaí) → cellular protection

  • Dark leafy greens (spinach, kale) → iron and B vitamins

  • Tomatoes (lycopene) → natural anti-inflammatory

  • Green tea → protective polyphenols

Essential micronutrients

Iron (essential for oxygenation):

  • Black pudding, calf liver

  • Spirulina, sesame seeds

  • Combination with vitamin C for optimal absorption

Zinc (hair growth cofactor):

  • Oysters, pumpkin seeds

  • Beef, raw cocoa

  • 15-20mg/day maximum

B Vitamins (energy complex):

  • B7 (biotin): egg yolks, nuts

  • B12: animal products, nutritional yeast

  • Folates: green vegetables, legumes

Hydration: the forgotten element

Goal: 35ml of water per kg of body weight

Pro tip: Start your day with 500ml of warm water + lemon 🍋 to optimize nutrient absorption.

Sleep: your growth hormone factory

Why 7-8h are non-negotiable

Between 10 PM and 2 AM, your body produces 80% of its daily growth hormone. This hormone:

  • Stimulates cellular regeneration

  • Optimizes protein synthesis

  • Improves the quality of your platelets

Optimized sleep protocol:

  • Bedtime before 11 PM

  • Bedroom at 18-19°C

  • No screens 2h before bed

  • Magnesium (300mg) 1 hour before sleep

Habits sabotaging your PRP

Smoking 🚬: platelets’ enemy n°1

Scientifically proven impact:

  • 30% reduction in blood oxygenation

  • Alteration of platelet growth factors

  • Reduced circulation to follicles (-25%)

If you smoke:

  • Immediate reduction of 50% at least 4 weeks before PRP

  • Total cessation ideal 6 weeks before treatment

  • Alternative: Exosome therapy if quitting is impossible

Alcohol: hepato-disturbing factor

More than 2 drinks/week:

  • Hepatic toxicity affecting growth factor synthesis

  • Multiple nutritional deficiencies

  • Chronic systemic inflammation

Chronic stress: result thief

Permanently elevated cortisol:

  • Inhibits hair growth

  • Reduces growth factors’ effectiveness

  • Disrupts nutrient absorption

Pre-PRP optimization program (6-8 weeks)

Phase 1: Detoxification (Weeks 1-2)

Elimination:

  • Alcohol, tobacco, refined sugars

  • Ultra-processed foods

  • Coffee after 3 PM

Introduction:

  • Green tea (2-3 cups/day)

  • Daily cruciferous vegetables

Phase 2: Nutritional optimization (Weeks 3-4)

Targeted supplementation:

  • High-quality B complex

  • Vitamin D (2000-4000 IU based on blood test)

  • Zinc bisglycinate: 15mg/day

Optimized sample menu:

Breakfast:

  • 2 organic eggs + sautéed spinach

Lunch:

  • Grilled salmon (120g)

  • Quinoa + colorful vegetables
