DermaPen PRP

hair treatment

DermaPen with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is an innovative combination treatment that uses advanced microneedling technology and natural growth factors from the patient’s own blood to regenerate skin and stimulate hair growth. This method is popular for its effectiveness, minimal invasiveness, and fast results.
What is DermaPen?
DermaPen is a professional device that uses tiny needles to make microscopic punctures in the skin. These injections encourage the body’s natural healing process, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, which improves the texture and appearance of the skin. When used to treat the scalp, the DermaPen helps stimulate the hair follicles, thereby encouraging new hair growth.
Combination with PRP
PRP treatment uses platelet-rich plasma from the patient’s own blood. The patient’s blood is centrifuged using special protocols to separate the platelets, and then this concentrated plasma is injected into the area being treated. The combination of DermaPen and PRP enhances the results of both treatments, as the microneedles allow for deeper penetration of the PRP, increasing its effectiveness.
Procedure

1. Preparation:

Blood is taken from the patient's arm and processed to obtain platelet-rich plasma.

2. Plasma injection with DermaPen:

The DermaPen device makes microscopic punctures on the skin or scalp, and at the same time plasma rich in platelets and growth factors is applied to the skin, which is absorbed through the microscopic channels made by the DermaPen.

Efficiency and Results
Although results are not immediate, patients typically notice an improvement in hair quality within a few months. DermaPen PRP treatments often require three sessions spaced four weeks apart, with additional maintenance treatments every three to six months to achieve optimal results.

Benefits and potential risks

Improved skin texture:

DermaPen stimulates collagen production, improving skin texture and tone.

Increased hair growth:

PRP stimulates the growth of new hair follicles and strengthens existing hair.

Minimal invasiveness:

The procedure is safe, with minimal recovery time - patients return to their usual activities immediately after the treatment.

Natural results:

Using your own growth factors from the blood, the treatment is natural and safe, reducing the risk of allergic reactions and infections.

What is DermaPen + PRP hair treatment?

DermaPen + PRP is a combination of microneedling treatment (DermaPen) and PRP (platelet-rich plasma) for the scalp. DermaPen creates microchannels in the skin, and PRP is then applied or infused to support follicles and scalp quality. Poliklinka Dijamant Sarajevo uses this treatment primarily for thinning and hair loss, and to support scalp health.

DermaPen (microneedling) can stimulate microcirculation and initiate skin reparative processes, which can improve the “environment” of the follicles. In Sarajevo, Poliklinka Dijamant adapts the treatment to the condition of the scalp and the goal (strengthening existing hair, better texture, less hair loss).

PRP contains growth factors that can support follicles and scalp quality. The combination of DermaPen + PRP hair treatments is often used to combine the benefits of microneedling and PRP.

Most often for people with initial to moderate thinning, poor hair quality, diffuse hair loss or as additional support after hair transplantation. At the Poliklinka Dijamant Sarajevo, candidacy is assessed after a scalp examination.

Treatment is usually delayed in cases of active infections, severe scalp inflammation, some clotting disorders, severe hematological diseases, or if the person cannot donate blood.

No. DermaPen + PRP treatment can help strengthen existing hair and scalp quality, but does not restore follicles where they have been permanently lost.

Typically, blood is taken, centrifuged to obtain PRP, then the scalp is prepared and microneedling is performed with a DermaPen, and the PRP is applied or smeared into the treated area. In Sarajevo, Poliklinika Dijamant uses a sterile protocol and adjusts the depth of microneedling according to the patient’s needs.

Stinging and discomfort may be felt, especially in sensitive regions.

Usually 45–90 minutes, depending on the scalp area and the protocol (PRP preparation, microneedling and application).

Most often, a series of treatments is done, one treatment per month for 3-4 months, followed by maintenance (one treatment every 6 months).

Results are not immediate. The first changes (less shedding, better quality, stronger hair) are often noticed only after a few months, especially after a series of treatments.

The effects depend on the cause of the hair loss and maintenance. In some people, they last for months, so booster treatments are recommended.

It can help some people in the early stages, but is often best combined with a broader scalp care plan.

The most common are redness, sensitivity, slight stinging and small point “scratches” from microneedling, which subside in a short period of time. Severe irritations or infections occur less often, especially if care is not followed.

It is usually advised to avoid intense sweating, saunas, swimming pools and aggressive products shortly after the treatment. Exact instructions after DermaPen PRP treatment in Sarajevo are provided by Poliklinka Dijamant.

It is often recommended to delay washing until the next day (or at least a few hours), depending on the protocol and skin sensitivity.

PRP uses your own blood, which reduces the risk of allergy, and DermaPen is a standard microneedling technique when performed sterilely. Safety depends on proper assessment, sterility and care.

Choose a clinic that evaluates the cause of shedding, uses a sterile protocol, adjusts the depth of microneedling to the scalp, and provides a clear plan for a series of treatments and controls. Poliklinka Dijamant Sarajevo fulfills all of the above.
